STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Not Your Boyfriend's Jeans

Boyfriend jeans are becoming quite the popular clothing item, and in my opinion, this newfound popularity is well-deserved. Boyfriend jeans are not just an oversized pair of jeans anymore; boyfriend jeans are in fact very well-fitted and extremely chic. Since the trend of boyfriend jeans is on the rise, stores everywhere are selling very flattering cuts and styles of these jeans, from Target to Bloomingdale’s. If you shop around enough, you’ll be sure to find the perfect pair that sits well on your hips while having just the perfect amount of slouch throughout the leg.

While boyfriend jeans are great in all seasons, they tend to work best for spring and fall since they are typically worn cuffed, and usually come in destroyed washes with rips and holes all over the place! This kind of denim also looks great when paired with heels or booties, as this week’s Fashionista proves. Since the baggy cut tends to shorten the look of your legs, the extra height will balance out the style and make them look more polished.

Since boyfriend jeans tend to be a statement piece on their own, this Fashionista shows us that basics and simple silhouettes work best when styling this type of denim. A basic T-shirt with a cardigan or blazer over it will pull your look together in a matter of seconds. And don’t forget to accessorize, as this Fashionista does, to bring some extra feminine flair to a male-inspired look!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Boyfriend jeans are so versatile; everyone should have a pair in their closet! They can be worn to class during the day and then even out on a date at night with the right accessories.”
