Everyone woman wanst to look great in a pair of jeans. Problem is, shopping for jeans is a nightmare. With hundreds of fits, styles and colors, looking for the right pair is like finding a needle in a haystack. Sometimes this means spending hours trying on thirty pair only to walk out with nothing. 

You need to kow a few things about the wash, rise and leg cut.

1) Wash

Jeans come in many kinds of washes but the most popular are:

• stonewashed – where the jeans are washe with stones to soften material
• sandblasted/distressed – the jeans are blasted with sand to wear in the color
• whiskered (creased) – the jeans are streaked with horizontal lines.

2) Rise

Jeans come in many rises – which is the space between the crotch and hip.

• Low rise  sit at your hips but mufin tops are a problem
• Mid rise are in between low and high
• High rise are jeans that cover your waistline.

3) Leg fit

Jeans come in many fits. Choose right for you.

• Boot cut – they flare slightly at the bottom
• Straight leg – there is no flare at the ankle.
• Skinny jeans – tight hugging to legs and great with boots or high heels
• Boy cut – slim hips and straighter legs

General Tips:

• If the jeans have light parts, make sure they are on the places you want to accenuate.
• If you don’t want to have your legs look large, don’t get whiskered jeans.
• In general, the darker the jeans, the slimmer you look.
