We all know that a quality pair of jeans can make or break an outfit, as well us making us feel fabulous if they have the right fit; this week, I noticed a huge following for paint-on, skinny and boot cut jeans.

Boot – cut jeans are versatile and work well with almost any outfit. They are perfect for wearing WITH BOOTS and suit all women of any shape or size.

Skinny jeans sculpt the leg and can accentuate a well groomed backside, but can also highlight problem areas, so be careful.

Paint-on jeans are simply skinnier skinnys! If you’ve got the pins, then by all means wear this daring choice with pride.

Boy-fit jeans are a growing trend this season so grab yourself a pair – not to confuse boy-fit jeans with jeans for boys however, these jeans don’t mask our assets but simply showcase them differently and maximise comfort.

Alexander Wang displayed his take on jeans in his Autumn/winter 2008 ready-to-wear shows; he demonstrated how best to wear paint-on jeans and denim shorts alongside this chic and dark collection.

Ruffian showed a more regal approach to the trend by teaming patterned jeans with voluminous shirts and killer heels.

 
Diesel showed an interesting take in the boy-fit style jeans in their Fall RTW shows – the playful cuts of the jeans teamed with casual elements create an edgy look.

Miss Sixty focussed on the skinny jeans look and toyed with the effects of distressing denim through bleaching and stonewashing.

Some people consider jeans to be a forgotten fashion statement but the right pair can most certainly convert a plain outfit, into a proclamation of style.

Make your statement.
