Celebrity Style: Blue Jean Bonanza

Cotton, silks, wools, or synthetics; if you had to guess, which fabric do you think is most commonly worn by both sexes? Fashion Reverie’s guess would be denim.  And if you guessed denim, you would be right on target!!

We all have to thank Levi Strauss in 1853 for using denim to meet the need for sturdier miner’s clothes.  By using brown cotton tent material, without knowing it, Levi Strauss began a clothing trend that today is a billion dollar industry. In Levi Strauss’ case necessity was truly the mother of invention—ultimately a billion dollar invention at that.

Over 150 years later, most consumers possess at least one pair of blue jeans. And every few years, blue jeans are back on the top of trending charts! This time around jean styles are untamable and everything is allowed! Celebrities with style are the ones that give us best way to wear blue jeans. Below are some of Fashion Reverie’s favorites:

Ripped Jeans

We see them on our favorite celebrities and on the street every day. Overnight, everyone got the memo that ripped jeans is must-have for fall 2014. If you don’t have a pair of stylish rips, purchase a pair before inventory runs out.

When purchasing rips, it is best to stick to the style that works for your body type. And if you don’t find the right pair in stores, there are plenty of DIY tricks you can look for online.  For the DIY option you can even use an old pair, so it’s a pretty sweet deal. Selena Gomez prefers the white top and blue jeans combination; Olivia Palermo looks very fancy fetching a coffee while walking her pooch.

Jumpsuits

Jumpsuits made of any fabric are fabulous, but not every girl can wear a jean jumpsuit.  You have to be confident, and you need to know how to accessorize.  Whether you decide to go effortlessly cool, running your mommy errands like Gwen Stefani or sporty wearing platforms like Kourtney Kardashian, you will be the center of attention.

Double Denim

Matching denim tops and denim skirts are another option if you are a girly girl and you don’t wear pants that often. Rihanna added a metallic black cap, which made the look edgier, and Beyoncé certainly knows how to show off her tiny waist in a denim pencil skirt.  This type of look should be easy to achieve especially for hourglass- shaped girls because denim keeps everything in place!

Folded Bottom

Sometimes our skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans seem too long. We believe that is how the folded bottom idea came about and we love it! It just adds and extra wow factor to the look. There are few options. The clean cut is carefully, neatly about two inches cuffed. It is more for a classic type of girl. Another option is the carefree cuff.  Fold the bottoms thinner and make them a little messy. It is for more of a BOHO chic gal.  Hollywood loves this option and celebrities like Reese Witherspoon and Sarah Michelle Gellar each have their favorites.

Useful tips:

1) Do not throw away old jeans. When the time comes try to style it into a whole new, current look.

2) Man shirts are a great option for minimalists. It is a perfect base for great accessories.

3) If you find a vintage or a Chanel denim bag, by all means if you can afford it, buy it!!
