Boyfriend Jeans

If you have had enough of skinny jeans, then the newest trend – the boyfriend jeans – is definitely worth a try. Oversized and tastefully distressed, these comfy jeans have been the top choice of fashion mavens, from Beyonce to Jennifer Aniston. Pull the look off just like these fashionistas by heeding these tips on how to rock boyfriend jeans:

CUFF IT UP

his baggy pair can make you look chunky if not worn correctly. To avoid adding the non-existing pounds to your fame, remember to cuff the ends of your denims. Shortening the length can balance the bagginess. Most importantly, it gives you the chance to show off your shoes. If you feel like cuffing your boyfriend pants, make it a point to wear the flashiest shoes ever!

Be Sporty

Since boyfriend jeans are reminiscent of manliness and athleticism, then a good way to style it is to wear it with sporty apparel and accessories. Go for a varsity top (or one which conveys an air of vigor.) If you want to look more ladylike, a sporty crop top will do. End the look with a great pair of sneakers and you’ll end up with a beautifully boyish style.

TRENDGUIDE 2014 : SNEAKERS

This look, or a high-low variation, is going to be the look of 2014. I know this because wherever my eye has alighted during the past few weeks of shows, it has snagged on a highly evolved (ie designer version) of sporty footwear. I don't mean those wedge-trainer hybrids that Isabel Marant spawned ages ago, and which even she said THIS WEEK  she can no longer bear to look at, but proper sneakers and skate shoes...

No more murder on the dance floor. I may have to break the habit of a lifetime and get on down there. In my skate shoes...xo
