My Boyfriend's Back

Not only are boyfriend jeans back, but they seem to be sticking around for a while. In the Summer of 2008 people snickered at Katie Holmes when she wore her BF jeans french cuffed with silver flats, but the comeback has continued. During the Fall 2008 they were paired with booties for the cool weather. Now, just about every jean company has a BF jean offering and they are hotter than ever this summer.

Although the relaxed thigh and the straight leg fit is the opposite of a skinny jean, they can both be worn in the same way. The BF jean is not just for the casual look with flats or sandals. Instead, it can be dressed up in a very chic way for day or evening with the cutest heels. As with any jean fit, the next decision is the wash. Since this fit is so versatile, there is no right answer, so go crazy, feel free to be creative!


Wardrobe Tip #1: Why spend extra money if you don't have to? You may have some old loose fitting jeans in your closet that don't get worn anymore....why not cut them and make them into the shorts version of the BF jean?

Wardrobe Tip #2: If you are one of those girls who are lucky enough to fit into your honey's jeans, maybe you can "borrow" those and roll up the cuffs as you throw on your cutest shoes on your way out the door :-)

Beyonce: What Can We Learn From Her?

Style Lesson#1: This look is all about the accessories jazzing up a basic outfit. Group up some of your favorite accessories and add an interesting shoe and viola!

Style Lesson #2: Beyonce's jeans are also used as quite a versatile piece. Instead of wearing them full length, she has chosen to style them as pseudo-capris by rolling them up. Your favorite jeans that were accidentally bleached or rip can serve as the DIY project to help you pull off this look.
