Tips on How to Pick the Right Jeans - A Timeless Wardrobe Staple

Casual and comfortable, yet with infinite possibilities of dressing them up should the occasion demand it, jeans are a true wardrobe staple that has stood the test of time. Here is your guide to buying the perfect pair.

1

Avoid relying on trends

High-waisted skinny jeans or the cult favourite, mom jeans might be one the biggest trends right now, when it comes to jeans, but that does not mean you should add them to your online shopping cart. It is important to remember that while a certain style is currently trending and making its rounds in the fashion world, it doesn't mean it will necessarily suit or flatter your body. Make it a point not to fall under the spell of current yet fleeting fashion trends, and to instead pick a style of jeans that suits you.

2

Remember, jeans stretch!

Jeans are sewn out of denim, which as a fabric is super stretchy. Which will only continue to stretch out the more times you wear it. While it might be slightly tight or uncomfortable when you first try on a pair of jeans in the store, avoid purchasing a larger size. Sizing up when a pair feels constrictive and uncomfortable on the first try, is not always necessarily the best choice. Consider opting for a slightly snugger pair and trust that it will stretch to fit your body.

3

Find the right fit

Finding the right fit when it comes to jeans can be tricky, so it's always a good idea to shop in-store when looking for that perfect pair of jeans as opposed to shopping online. This way you can try on a variety of styles and choose one that suits your body and style preferences. Clothing stores such as Nils Store invariably offer a wide range of denims for women. One can choose from a variety of types of jeans including flared, boot cut, mom and boyfriend jeans.

Hem away

If you are a person of short stature or are tirelessly looking out for a pair of cropped jeans, hemming your jeans is a great way to make sure they are the right length for you. Jeans falling low on your ankles is not stylish and don't make for a put-together look. Drop off your jeans at a tailor and have them taken into a length that flatters you.

5

Consider the wash

When it comes to the wash of your denim jeans, there's no wrong or right. It's simply a matter of your style preference. As a rule in the fashion world. Opting to go for darker washes is best for those wanting to look dressy, especially for a night out. Light washes on the other hand give off a more relaxed and laid-back vibe best suited for informal occasions. Apart from the usual blue jeans, one can also opt for white, black or grey denim jeans.
