Denim Days
Blues clues for any style
We all know, denim never goes out of style (hello Levi’s, circa 1873!), but certain trends have surfaced for fall/winter. Gravitating away from the polar opposites of the ultra-skinny and the super baggy fits, this season’s jeans present in a more structured and polished way. Here are a few of our favs:
SLIM LINE
An elegant jean for when you want to serve a little extra
Style/Silhouette: A streamlined fit that gives you legs for days
The Rise: High-rise
The Wash: Dark indigo wash

CURVES AHEAD
The best jean to flatter an hourglass figure, the curve jean features a little extra room in the hip, glute, and thigh areas and a contoured waistband to help avoid that dreaded waist gap
Style/Silhouette: Sculpted curve through the hip and thigh
The Rise: Mid-rise
The Wash: Medium indigo wash, perfect for transitioning seasons from fall to winter

THE NEW BARREL
A modern denim silhouette, the barrel jean pairs well with fitted tops and lightweight sweaters
Style/Silhouette: The new barrel is fitted through the hips with slightly less volume in the leg than a classic barrel, and a gentle tapering at the ankle.
The Rise: High-rise
The Wash: Medium wash for a balanced, timeless look

The Wash: Vintage blue, with just enough wear to make them look like you’ve had them forever
