Top 5 Must-Have Jeans

There truly are jeans for every occasion. Here are some good reasons to buy 5 new pairs of jeans this fall...

1. The Boyfriend Jean - The Weekend Jean
  • loose fitting
  • relaxed
  • low rise
  • straight leg
  • often worn cuffed
These jeans are the epitome comfort and casual jeans in your wardrobe. Roll or cuff them and add a pair of wedges or flats for a laid-back chic look. The term 'boyfriend' is stolen from the idea that men's jeans are looser fitting and have a laid back style. And who says that women shouldn't be able to be comfortable and casual too?

Worn here by Kim Kardashian, they are cuffed and distressed for an added casual look. Invest in a good pair of boyfriend jeans and you surely won't be disappointed. Choose these jeans when comfort is your top priority!




2.
Dark Slim Jean - The Out-of-the-Office Doing Business Jean
  • dark wash
  • slim leg
  • ultra sleek
  • higher waist

Kate Middleton is showcasing a great fitted skinny jean hitting right at the ankle. This style jean is perfect for an business meeting lunch or semi formal meeting where you want to dress to impress. Pair with conservative pieces like a blazer and ruffle blouse for an even more dressed up look. To get this look right, choose a skinny jean that fits well in a wash that is dark enough, almost appearing black.


3. High Waist - Wide Leg - The Bombshell Jean
  • high waist
  • wide leg
  • fitted
  • light or dark wash works
This style jean is a head turner! Not only does the style flatter, shape and tuck where you need it most, but its old-school reminiscent brings out your inner fashion diva. The higher waist really does slim and show off your hourglass figure while creating the appearance of long legs - even if genetics didn't bless you with them. Pair these jeans with heels & a fancy top for a great going out look. Tuck in your shirt to show off the great fit and style.



4. One Size up Jeans - The Travel Jean
  • one size up for comfort
  • flare leg
  • darker wash
  • Easy waistband
  • Super soft denim

Ok, so we admit, who really likes to buy jeans or any clothes for that matter, ONE size bigger than normal?! But, trust us here, and go for one size up for comfort and you will thank yourself later. Traveling in the car, by plane, boat or bus, you will appreciate a little extra room sitting or standing. The darker wash of the jeans helps disguise the extra so you'll still be able to pull off your classic chic look even when traveling. Plus these jeans are a wardrobe essential, for those days when you want to indulge on that slice of chocolate cake. :)


5. Straight Leg Blue Jeans - The (Almost) 'Mom' Jean

  • Straight Leg
  • Mid Rise
  • Not too fitted
  • Medium to dark wash
  • Must be comfortable
Even if you aren't a mom, these jeans are for you. And if you are a mom, its likely these are your tried and true go-to pair of good ol' baby blue jeans. Sure, Katie Holmes (pictured here) is fashionista, but when it comes to taking care of her family, she holds nothing back. These jeans won't turn heads, but they can take you from AM to PM in comfort. Choose a medium to darker wash to conceal any spill or blemish. Sometimes called your favorite jean; they just fit and feel oh so good.

Thanks for reading!
