Posted on November 6th, 2009 by  |  No Comments »

Jeans are timeless classics, a cultural code of our epoch which can be found everywhere, in all combinations and situations. This universal dress-code of several generations changes its form and color, preserving its spirit. But let us take a close-up on color of jeans today.

Classical made to measure jeans come in indigo or dark indigo. They remain popular in current season, however, jeans of all possible colors appear in the collections of modern fashion designers all over the world. Light blue, black, lemon yellow, turquoise, pink, red or berry colors – there is definitely freedom of choice! For example, check out the collections by Pimkie, Diesel, Pepe Jeans or 55DSL!

However, be careful – bright jeans, especially skinny jeans, attract additional attention to certain parts of your body. So if you are not quite sure of your silhouette, better give preference to classical indigo models.

This also brings up the question of the right combination. What should you wear you bright customized jean with? Fashion designers recommend combining it with whole-colored tops and t-shirts, as well as with leather jackets. The prefect shoes to match with bright colored jeans have high heels or a platform. This will visually make your silhouette slimmer, hide all the imperfections of your figure and make you look very feminine. Don’t be afraid – celebrities like Sienna Miller, Stacy Furgusson, Ashley Simpson and Rachel Bilson have already made their choice and can be now seen wearing white, yellow or red jeans.

But let us not limit our talk about the color of customized denim just to the color of jeans. Let’s also speak about embellishments! Embellished jeans with prints, rhinestones and embroidery stay popular this season as well. The same can be said about fur furnishings, frillery, falbala, gold-worn stains. The fantasy of world couturiers has no limits! Read the rest of this entry »

The Differences Between Men’s Skinny Jeans and Women’s Skinny Jeans

Posted on January 8th, 2009 by  |  No Comments »

Men’s skinny jeans are becoming more and more popular everyday. However, other people who don’t wear them mistakenly say that these jeans were originally meant to be worn by women and men shouldn’t wear them. Women do wear these jeans indeed but back in the history men were the first to wear them. Rock stars and other musicians wore these jeans all the time because they wanted to create a new trend. However women started to follow this trend too and they wore them the most.

Men’s skinny jeans are totally different from women’s. They are tight too but they are a lot looser on the crotch area and on the waist. This means that they are comfortable even while you are sitting, walking or just relaxing. In addition, large manufacturers of men’s jeans, including Levi’s, Gap, Banana Republic, American Eagle etc. produce these tight jeans adding some men’s jeans details, including the longer zipper on the crotch area and so on. Skinny jeans are now popular amongst celebrities, skaters, punk rockers etc. Celebrities including Justin Timberlake, Kanye West, Zac Efron etc. wore these tight jeans, while others such as Jay Z refused to wear them because they said they’re not comfortable enough. That’s not really true, because they’re comfortable on each part of your body. Firstly, they’re looser on your waist and crotch area; secondly there is always a size for you. Even if you are a plus size, you can still look nice by picking your own size of these jeans. Read the rest of this entry »
