i dream of Jeany

Have you seen the crazy colored jeans recently in style?! Hot pink jeans are cute… when you're 12! Lets have this trend move to a subtle style, presenting tonal stitching . Have your much wanted heart embroidery on your derrière but have the stitching match your denim. With that, stick to the basic denim colors, i.e. darks, lights, blacks and gray. This way when all your jeans are in the laundry, you wont be stuck with Smurf blue jeans for a night out!

" The Pistol Pant” by Royal Bones for Tripp NYC is a good monochromatic choice. A black skinny denim with same tone stitching that adds a ruff appeal to a basic jean. Pick what you like and keep it subtle.

Now guys have a whole new trend with their denim. I'm noticing high waisted cuts for guys but the pants are still worn baggy. The reason for this higher approach, ahh, to fit the man tramp-stamp. What? Let me explain, adding these extra inches of denim to their pant helps make more space to fit a graphic design or script. Now guys can still wear their jeans and keep them lookin classy but if the man tramp-stamp shows, ladies will find the hidden design and decide whether she likes the dragon on his jeans or if she should pass.

Fella's should stick with the designs two ways, go for a sophisticated look with cursive print like "The Know1edge x Diamond Supply Co. Raw Jean". A smooth lookin design with the very now diamond design. The two streetwear designers, Know1edge and Diamond Supply Co. tagged up together to develop this limited pant with authentic Japanese denim.

The other way to go is bubble graffiti. Make the design big and bold and illegible. Usually its going to be the designers name on the pant but not being able to read the script makes a great icebreaker. Here’s the "Babylon Sneake Cut 101 Denim " by Shmack. It’s dark denim, has a great urban cut and a sneaky stamp with big color combinations.

Don’t get me wrong, I love colored jeans, but it's a trend for the select.
