15 Wardrobe Essentials #8

Bonjour mes chéris,

This is Part 8 of the Wardrobe Essentials series. To view the seventh Wardrobe Essential –  Black Opaque Tights – click here.

What item of clothing, if it fits you like a glove and makes you feel amazing, makes you feel like you can conquer the world?

8.    A pair of Jeans – Flared or Skinny in a Dark Wash

Nothing has the power to make you feel more fabulous than a well-fitting pair of jeans!  A bootleg is the most flattering cut for most body shapes as it balances out the thighs, while skinny jeans can be more body shape specific.  Always remember to balance your outfit, so when you wear your skinnies pair it with a flowy, soft, loose-ish top, and when you wear your bootlegs pair it with a more fitted top. Jeans are the most versatile item you can own, and you can dress them up or down with just about anything from your wardrobe! Pair them with a crisp white shirt and heels for a more formal look, an off-the shoulder top and gorgeous peep-toes for a bit of sexiness, or a racerback tank top and flip flops for a super casual look. Pastel and brightly coloured skinny jeans are big for Spring/Summer 2012/2013, as are printed skinnies.
