Embrace Effortless Style with the R.Vivimos Women’s Summer Blackless Dress
December 18, 2024No matter how many pairs of jeans I have in my closet, I always feel like I’m looking for the “perfect pair of jeans.” I know I’m not the only one struggling because I’m always asked how to look good in jeans and find the most flattering style of jeans. Who else has had this experience in the fitting room: a pair of jeans that you thought looked great ended up looking, well, really bad?
That said, finding the right jeans doesn’t have to be a major challenge. From size to silhouette to length, to smaller aesthetic details like distressing and washing – these can all affect how jeans look on you, and if you can determine exactly what you like ahead of time, you won’t have to waste time trying out those that fit you. Sure, you’re bound to go through some trial and error, and your perfect denim might only really come to fruition after going to the tailor’s shop, but hey, it’s worth saying that you’ve finally found the “perfect pair,” am I right?
Your jeans are probably more popular than any other item in your wardrobe, which is why it’s so important to choose a pair of jeans that actually fit you – and more importantly, make you feel great. The next time you go, keep the following tips in mind for jeans shopping and see if you haven’t found your new favorite jeans.
1. Find Your Own Upside
No matter what’s trending, figure out what kind of waistline makes you feel your best. Are you a low-waisted girl, a mid-rise girl, or a complete obsession with vintage high-waisted styles. It’s up to you, but you have to know – the most prevalent waistline is the mid-rise. Low-rise jeans will put pressure on your belly, while high-waisted jeans will make your belly look wider, and it’s all thanks to the fabric. Long live mid-rise jeans!
2. Select a Silhouette
There are many different options for jeans, from baggy boyfriend pants to rockstar leggings to vintage wide-leg flared pants. What’s the best piece of advice? Don’t limit yourself to thinking you can only wear one style. Find one of the largest fitting rooms in the store and carefully select all the styles until you find the one that suits you best. Then, stock up on some, or find another one you like.
3. Pay Attention to Details
Whether jeans fit or not depends not only on size, but also on how they are cut. Brands such as American Eagle and Madewell have now launched Curvy Fit denim specifically designed to flatter wider hips and thighs, while many brands also offer the same jeans, available in regular, petite, and tall styles.
4. Be Picky About Your Pockets
If you want to fade your hips, avoid back pockets with flaps, buttons, studs, or embroidery, all of which will enhance your hips – instead, keep it simple and streamlined. On the other hand, if you want to pretend to have a sexy ass, back trim is a great option.
5. Stretch and Stretch
Jeans don’t have to be restrictive! Find a pair of jeans with a little (or a lot) of stretch and you’ll think, why wear a sweatshirt when jeans feel just as good? Choose jeans blended with lycra, elastane, polyurethane or spandex instead of pure cotton.
That said, pay attention to the size when buying super stretch jeans. If the jeans fit like a glove when you first put them on, but have a lot of stretch, there is a chance that they will become looser and looser over the course of the day. If you can wear it one size smaller, it’s best to reduce your size to avoid a baggy situation in the long run.
6. Don’t Panic Because It’s Too Big
Do you wear size 27 on one brand and size 8 on another?baby, don’t worry too much about the numbers, especially if they’re in two completely different size ranges. When trying on jeans in the store, choose the size you see fit, then add a smaller or larger size depending on the jeans themselves. Focus on fit, not quantity. You’re the only one who sees the label!
7. Focus on Fades
Be strategic when washing denim. Jeans with a lighter color in the center of the leg give the illusion of a slender figure. That said, if you want a slimming effect, avoid clothes that only fade on your hips or thighs – they’re like a spotlight.
8. Take Them to the Tailor
Truth be told, not all jeans are right for you, but if you’re in love with a pair of jeans that don’t fit perfectly, it’s not necessarily impossible. Let the local tailor be your best friend and don’t be afraid to change your jeans. When you can customize the fit, why settle for a loose waistband or a leg that’s a little too long?
9. Damsel In Distress
Edgy ripped jeans? dirty and cool. The denim is so tattered that it looks like you’ve just struggled to break free from a zombie apocalypse? Not so much. Of course, how distressed you like is entirely up to you, but don’t get too caught up in the fashion details. Distress increases interest, but keeps tears and chips within reason.
10. Intensify Efforts
If you feel that wearing jeans legs looks short, first of all, it is not. Don’t be too yourself, you look great!, which means if you want to keep your legs in shape for a long time, wear heels or heeled boots to visually elongate your lower body. When you wear high heels, you automatically mobilize your calf, thigh, and hip muscles to help maintain balance. As a result, everything seems tighter and firmer.
11. Ignore Trends
Now, high-waisted mom jeans are everything, but in no time, skinny jeans could make a comeback. It’s fun to experiment with new trends and play your own, but if you don’t actually like the vibe, you don’t have to feel like you have to lean into every look of the moment. Wear your favorite jeans and feel good, regardless of the trend.
