ALL ABOUT DENIM
STRENGTH
When looking for a pair of jeans, strength may not
be the first thing that comes to mind, but it should
be. A good pair of well-made jeans will last a long
time, so seek durable materials that will hold their
form and won't show wear at the seams after a
few wears. When it comes to finding a pair of
jeans that fit like a glove, you'll want to make sure
they stay that way - so be prepared to spend a
little extra on a designer pair that will last the
distance.
SHAPE
Most of us stick with the same jean shape year after
year, but you could be missing out if you don't try new
things. Try on a few different kinds at your favorite
designer boutique the next time you're out shopping –
you might be amazed how high-waisted 'mom' jeans
can extend your legs, or how a bootcut pair can help
balance out broader hips. Of course, it's tempting to
go the other way and buy the newest design to hit the
runway without putting it on first, but keep in mind that
jeans are supposed to flatter your form, so choose a
style that works for you and stick with it.
WASH
Of course, it's not as simple as picking a pair that's
'blue,' because even within one color, there are a
variety of washes to choose from. The latest styles
to be seen fluctuate with the seasons, but a pair
of stone-washed or mid-washed jeans will carry
you through casual occasions and exude off-duty
cool, while a deeper, inkier pair is ideal for nicer
gatherings and events

"MY PAINTINGS, WHICH I CALL
‘COLORS’, ARE GENERATED
FROM THE VIBRATIONS OF
POSITIVE ENERGY, WHICH I
WISH TO PASS ON TO MASSES
THROUGH MY CANVASES. I
ENJOY THE BEAUTY IN
SIMPLICITY OF COLORS AND
CELEBRATE THEIR CALMNESS,
