Your Boyfriend's Jeans Never Looked So Good

Boyfriend Jeans have been trendy for the last couple months, and if you haven't gotten a pair for yourself, here are a few ways to wear them that will have you running for the mall. Every girl has her favorite pair of jeans that fit just right, but the great thing about Boyfriend Jeans is they are supposed to be a little baggy (think loose fit, not sagging). My favorite styles are ones that look a little scuffed up in either a light or dark wash. Make sure the cuff of your pants come a little lower then mid calf. Since these jeans are not the most feminine, hence their name "Boyfriend Jeans," I recommend pairing them with some girly well-fitting pieces. I love combining these loose fitting jeans with a tucked in blouse and an edgy pair of heals, or a cute tank, cardigan, and chic pair of ballet flats. Helpful hint, just because they are called "Boyfriend Jeans" does not mean you should actually borrow them from your boyfriend. Find a pair made for women for the perfect fit.
