Your Boyfriend Called...He Wants His Jeans Back!

June 29, 2009

I’ve never been a big fan of trends and this one is right there with the rest of them! The boyfriend jean really doesn’t flatter anyone! If you are fortunate enough to be thin - you should show off your figure and if you’ve got a few extra pounds – adding extra volume is only going to make you appear larger! In addition to making you look like your carrying some extra baggage, the cropped style is making your legs appear shorter and wider! Yes, it’s true. Your legs stop where the jeans end and this means you visually have 2’5��? legs or shorter for many of us petite types. Boyfriends jeans are a trend so if you must buy them, don’t waste your money on designer jeans because eventually they are going to be “out��? again (but probably not soon enough).

Instead of following the crowd this summer, opt for a classic white jean to add some style to your wardrobe. Here a few tips to pull off this summer chic jean:

1. Chose a jean instead of a pant as they are thicker and won’t show pockets or panty lines!

2. Wear nude (not white) thong panties – you don’t want lines or dark shadows!

3. Try a skinny jean for a straight figure or a bootcut style if you are curvier!

4. Pair white pants with a bright colored top or printed top to balance out a heavier bottom. Avoid wearing black or dark colors on top as you will visually exaggerate the width of your hip and thigh area!

5. Keep pockets minimal. Cargo pockets will add width to your hip area and flaps on the back pockets will add inches to your back side. If you are in need of a little extra curve, flap pockets on your bottom can do wonders!
