Time to Make A Change...


Ladies it's time to make a change, in your wardrobes. Seriously, put down the tapered jeans, throw away the hairspray, AND stop wearing over sized t-shirts. I'm beginning to think my mantra in life should be, "YOU CAN DO BETTER!".

My plan is to help women learn to dress themselves to the best of their ability. Women of ALL sizes can look amazing in the right clothes. Feeling comfortable with yourself, doesn't require a 'Pollyanna kind of mentality'. Sometimes the outside really can help the inside.

For example, you feel fat. You're tired of the muffin top, and feel that there is something wrong with you. You find a pair of jeans that fit in the right cut and wash, and suddenly, BAM! You feel sexy, because you look sexy.


Here are just a few tips on how to find the right jeans:

1. Don't worry about the size. If you have to go up a size or three, then just do it. It'll be worth it, I promise.

2. Dark wash denim looks best on women with bigger thighs.

3. Unless you are super skinny say "HELL NO!", to whiskering and/or fading.

4. Remember to fit the biggest part of your leg. So for you hip-ier girls, try a trouser fit jean. You can buy a great pair at 'Gap'.

5. MAKE SURE THEY ARE LONG ENOUGH. I am so freakin' tired of seeing women with jeans that are too short. Jeans should cover 3/4 of your heel. Which means the should be ONLY 1/4 inch above the ground.

6. For petite women, remember you can ALWAYS get them tailored.

7. Make sure you remember that jeans shrink in the dryer and loosen with wear.


Zafu is a great website that can help you find the right jeans. It has animated dolls you can dress up and to me that's worth the click.

Just to let you know, I plan on writing plenty of posts about the subject of jeans. Every woman needs and wants an amazing pair of jeans and besides bathing suits jeans are the only thing that brings us near suicide. Remember ladies, put down the razors (or pills), and pick-up some tissues. Perseverance ALWAYS pays off.

The biggest advice anyone can give to someone trying to find jeans, is to take at least an hour and TRY ON EVERYTHING. You'll find a pair you love, don't worry.

Taperd jeans are NEVER okay.
You want to eat an ice cream cone, not look like one.

Most of us are over the age of 18 and have thighs. If you do, don't whisker them, or highlight them with fade, or rips.

Unless your semi-cool with your thighs and you plan on shoving these "skinny" jeans in some boots, DON'T do it. Skinny jeans work on skinny girls/women. This cut will only HIGHLIGHT your thighs and yes, even make them appear bigger. So don't.
