Jeans 101: Accentuate your ASSetts

Jeans are a staple in every man and woman's wardrobe.  But how much do you really know about jeans?  Well let's find some points we can all agree on: they are usually made of denim, most jeans have back pockets, cut and styles vary, and every American owns, on average, 7 pairs of wearable jeans.  Remember these thoughts May 20th every year, considered the official "birthday" of jeans thanks to Levi Strauss.

There is more to jeans than stitching, color, wash of the denim and what brand it is.  It's all in the "fit" for your body type.  It's my personal belief that when you find a great pair of jeans that fit you just right and make your butt look exceptional than price is not a factor.  Just throw those sexy denim up on the counter for purchase!  Why?  Because it is so hard to find a great pair of jeans that accentuate your curves and make you feel and look fabulous.  For example, look at the back pockets of your jeans (or maybe lack of pockets).  Back pockets are really key to making your derrière look it's best.  If you have a full-figured bottom, than you need to be purchasing denim with pockets, no questions asked!  HOWEVER, pockets that are too big make your bottom look larger than it actually is, drawing attention to an area you may want to downplay.  Likewise if the pockets are too small . . . your behind may actually appear larger.  If you are self-conscious about your behind, avoid flashy designs and beading altogether.

Consider too, if you have wider hips you may want to avoid pockets that are off center and stitched farther apart.  These will tend to make you look . . . well . . . wider.  Flashy designs can be okay, but consider if you are wide and full-figured or wide and smaller-featured?  If you are fortunate to have a nicely shaped derrière, you can get away with larger pockets and designs.  If you have a small or flat bottom, avoid big pockets to avoid giving yourself no shape at all.  You want to enhance all your features to look your best.  Use your judgement and ask yourself before you purchase your next pair of jean, "What are these jeans saying about me?  Do I feel confident wearing them"?

The topic of jeans and its multiple styles is endless.  But take this "tip" of the iceberg and consider it.  A great pair of jeans with the right sized pockets are key to making you look the best so when you walk out of a room you're noticed for your ASSets.
