Which denim style is the right one for you?

What’s in the name

It’s easy to get lost in the sea of terms that get thrown around when it comes to the style of denim. Do you want a skinny or jeggings? Here’s a basic know-how of denim styles that can help you get around the next time:
-Skinny Jeans: If you have got lean legs (never skip leg day) that you’re looking to flaunt, these are for you. They are stretchable and come in low, mid, and high rise waist cuts – which makes them twice as good.
-Straight Leg Jeans: If you are looking for something that’ll hug your legs, but don’t have the bod or desire for skinnies, these are a god-sent answer. Your legs will also look longer in these.
-Jeggings: The name is pretty self-explanatory with this one. They are denim leggings. They’re easy to wear and stylish as hell, with a better range of color options.
-Boot Cut: back in the day this was called “mom jeans”. These days, they have made a comeback with a slightly less dramatic flare to keep up with times.
-Flared Jeans: Boot cut jeans, meet bell-bottoms. A ‘90s sensation, these jeans flare right below the knees, and how.
-Boyfriend Jeans: From runways to airports, these are everywhere. They give you a great fit near the waist and hip area and broaden a little as they move down.
