Every summer, we write an alternative to shorts blog post for our readers and clients, and it always ends up being one of our more popular posts. As we start preparing for colder weather, we thought we’d grace you with our favorite alternatives to skinny jeans. So many of our clients have been asking for new denim options, whether it’s because skinny jeans are uncomfortable, aren’t flattering for their body type, or just not new and exciting.
Last year when we wrote our cropped flares blog, many of you thought we were crazy. Well now that the trend has been going strong for at least a few seasons, maybe you’ve changed your mind! We also cover our favorite boyfriend jeans, including my personal favorite $20 pair from Uniqlo, and cropped wide leg jeans. Styling tip: cropped jeans can be taken into fall when paired with a cute ankle boot. We’re especially excited about this year’s combat boot trend. Stay tuned for a round up of our picks!
