JEAN DREAMS
Denim is a quintessential element of American aesthetic. Jeans are not only exceptionally durable, but also highly versatile from body type to styling. Heck nowadays, they don’t even have to be indigo… Nevertheless, whether you’re the “Forever in Blue Jeans” type or only wear them occasionally, these trends will up your denim wardrobe.
Wide-Leg Cuffed
Zara Z1975 Cuffed Jeans in Light Blue
$49.90 from www.zara.com
There’s something sophisticated yet carefree about cuffed denim. With a high waist and even higher cotton content, this style is universally flattering. Bonus points for picking a wash that looks lovingly lived in.
Raw-Edge Straight
Madewell The Perfect Vintage Jean in Coney Wash: Destroyed Edition
$138.00 from www.madewell.com
Straight leg designs make your stems appear a mile high. Choose a rise that compliments your shape to both look and feel your best. An exposed, frayed, or let-down hem modernizes this classic silhouette.
Slouchy Boyfriend
rag & bone Rosa Mid-Rise Boyfriend in Clean Mick
$225.00 from www.rag-bone.com
Relaxed cuts scream laid-back vibes. The best way to pull these off is to make sure the rest of your styling is on-point. Polished, thoughtful details will help this slouchy fit seem intentional and effortless.
Cropped Demi
J.Crew 9” Mid-Rise Demi-Boot Crop Jean in Clara Wash
$128.00 from www.jcrew.com
Cropped pants have become passé in recent years, but an interesting hemline will change that perception. Demi styles aren’t as exaggerated as flared or bootcut, and so they allow for more proportion play.
