You Can Never Have Too Many!!

As every girl knows, we just can’t go without more than one pair of jeans. If you are like me you probably own about 5 to 6 pairs of jeans or if you are crazy, like my best friend, you may own 10 to 12 pairs of jeans. I know ridiculous, right? But maybe you own several pairs and you get sick of wearing the same style. Well I have researched several different types and styles of denim jeans just for this purpose, since I wear jeans just about every single day in the fall and winter. These styles range “from basic blue to wide leg trousers to colored skinnys.” And like most girls… you want one of each. AOL’s Stylist helped me with this research and here are some examples of denim jeans for this fall.

First we have our skinny jeans. These jeans come in a variety of colors and washes. “Dark washed skinny jeans look the best and are the most popular.” Try to look for dark skinny jeans in indigo, navy, black, and dark greys instead of lighter washes. Another tip about skinny jeans is making sure you buy a pair that is comfortable for you to move around in. And please be able to zip them up!
What about those high-waisted jeans? Thank goodness this style is in. With the high waist of these jeans, no need to worry about having a plumber crack or a muffin top. Unfortunately these high waisted jeans make mid-sections look bigger and hips look wider. “High-waisted pants are great on ladies with flat tummies, long torsos and hourglass shapes.”

Straight leg jeans are another option. These jeans are cute to wear and are easy to run around in. You can never go wrong with this style of denim jeans.
Wide leg jeans or should I say mile-wide flare? This style of jean has made a huge comeback and seems to be extremely popular this fall. But keep this tip in mind when buying your new favorite pair of wide leg jeans: “The biggest key to making wide legs look flattering is choosing the right pair for your frame. If you are tall you can afford to go extra-wide with your flares, but if you're petite, a more modest leg will look the best. For pear-shaped gals, a flare that begins below the knee will balance out curvy hips.”
Boot cut jeans are best for those of us out there who are short! These jeans help balance curvy hips. They also work very well for women with a triangle or hourglass body shape. Also, choose a pair with a slight boot cut rather than a fuller bell bottom flare. The less the width, the taller you may look.
Don’t know where to purchase these styles of denim jeans? Here are just a few places you can begin to look for your new fabulous wardrobe.
