Day 15 and Some Advice on Jeans.


Day 15

Jeans! The above are my favorite pair of jeans. My outfit consists of an argyle cardi, a stretchy v neck and sweet heels. I always get insane blisters when wearing these shoes but I traded them for cookies and they are so stinkin' cute so I wear them anyway and accessorize them with hidden bandaids. Worth it.

As I was typing this article, I started thinking that I should write about jeans because they are amazing and everyone and their dog wears them. (Look at that cute face!) So without further ado, here is my infinite wisdom on jeans.

Everyone needs at least two pairs of jeans that fit. They make your legs and butt look amazing or they can make you look awful. Here are some tips for getting kick a** jeans: 
1. Get some with some stretch. But not too much stretch! Just enough to suck you in a little and smooth things out while giving you shape.
2. Have some with a darker wash. Dark is classic and slimming.
3. Don't have a lot of embellishment on the butt. It makes it look bigger and you pay like $50 more than you would have for a plain pair. Plus, you look like a high schooler when its all blinged out. Not a good look for anyone (even if you are in high school.)
4. Colored denim is fabulous. So get some that work for you. If you are worried about looking big, then you can get some in purple or some other dark color.
5. Same goes with floral printed jeans! Those are so in right now and I am obsessed with everything with flowers on it. If you want to look smaller, wear a smaller print! Just go for it. Nothing says spring like florals. 
6. Look for a mid rise waist band. Don't do the super-triple-extreme low rise kind. Not flattering in anyway. Do that and you can say hello to massive muffin top and more crack than an old sidewalk. Mid rise is excellent for hiding a stomach and it is very classy (and not to mention comfortable.)
7. High waisted jeans are so cute, especially when you are going for a retro look. But if you are going to do them, have ones that are very fitted. Ill fitting ones are mom jeans. Don't wear mom jeans.

Love, Mika.
