Dos And Don'ts For Denim

What are the biggest denim don'ts?

What should I look for in a good pair of jeans?

A good pair of jeans should be dark-washed so that they are slimming. They should fit to the top of the foot, and they should fit so that you don't have the muffin-top effect. Stick to something that fits perfectly, even if you have to spend the $250. A good pair of jeans, a good denim, that's a girl's best friend. Forget the finance.

What are 'mom jeans'?

How low can you go in 'low-rise jeans'?

Can we just get rid of the low-rise jeans? You don't want to show any butt cleavage, and you don't want to show any front cleavage. Stick to something that is minimally below the waist. Follow the three-finger rule. Take your three fingers and place them at your belly button. Your jeans should not ride higher than the bottom of your third finger.

Can everyone wear 'skinny jeans'?

Should I buy some high-waisted jeans as seen on celebs like Sienna Miller?

Is there a style of jean that's universally flattering?

I think a great, universal style of jean that looks great on everybody is a boot cut. More specifically, a Seven Jean boot cut. Seven Jeans really just fit every female figure wonderfully.

How can I pull off the dress and jeans look?

What are the do's and don'ts of denim rinses?

The do's of denim are definitely dark wash, because you can make it a more dressed-up look. You want to stay away from really light and acid-washed jeans. Gray works, but a light blue does not.

Is gray denim a do or a don't?

Gray denim is cute when paired with the right thing, like when it is paired with a vest, or paired with a kimono-style sweater. This is especially for skinny gray denim. It really works.

How should my jeans be hemmed?

You should have your jeans so that they fit right to the top of your foot, and the back should skim the floor by a quarter of an inch.

Jeans with holes-a do or a don't?

Bedazzled jeans-a do or a don't?

Bedazzled jeans are a don't. Enough said.

Distressed hems-a do or a don't?

Cuffed jeans-a do or a don't?

I only think cuffed jeans work it they're wide leg. Otherwise, stay far away.
