I posted recently about my desire to pair my boy jeans with bossy heels. Often times I wax philosophic on all these denim dreams I have – how I’ll wear them, all these amazing shoes I’ll buy, and all the cool combinations I’m going to try. More often than not, I just revert to the [...]

In the history of jeans that are just plain unflattering on everyone, boyfriend jeans hit the top of the list. Am I right? Sure, they look stylish, but really, jeans that don’t hug your body or lift your but or make your legs look longer… It’s a funny concept, isn’t it? We rely on our [...]

By Ann of Holier than Now Our psychotic Spring weather here in NY is certainly motivation to take a cue from the boys – wear pants, and layer up! Although I was never a huge fan of the boyfriend jeans look, I’m inspired by the New Bohemian mood of these street style shots (especially the new silhouette of [...]

In this crazy, I-feel-like-I-know-you-but-I’ve-never-met-you world we call the blog-o-sphere, there are many stylish women whose personal style, editorial flair and sunglasses collection I admire. Alicia, of Cheetah Is The New Black, is one such blogger. Her style is right in the sweet spot between achievable and aspirational, which adds up to totally inspirational. I finally [...]

When the boyfriend jean trend first emerged a few years ago, I was very hesitant to give them a try. My usual denim style (and my style in general) leans towards a much more tailored and slim silhouette. When I tried on most pairs, I found that my figure was lost in a distressed wash [...]

On the weekend my philosophy is: eat what you want, sleep whenever and what ever happens, take it easy. Taking it easy calls for an easy pair of jeans. Generally, I’m seeing all kinds of denim silhouettes out and about, and the boyfriend cut is no exception. The reason why, it’s relaxed, easy, and if [...]

During my trip to New York, I took a tour of some denim showrooms, one of which is Current/Elliot. It’s a brand that I have been very interested in, as they have such a relaxed cool style, that’s fashionable without being cheesy or sloppy. The designers, Emily Current and Meritt Elliott have a background as [...]
