Adapting Jean Styles for Different Occasions
Jeans are the quintessential versatile piece! Here are some tips for wearing your denim pants on any occasion without committing a fashion faux pas !
Choosing a Jean Based on Your Body Type
First and foremost, remember to choose your jeans according to your body type before thinking about style! This is an essential condition for looking good. Here are some basic reminders for selecting jeans based on your body type.
On évite le jean trop large si notre morphologie est très fine pour éviter de noyer sa silhouette. On privilégie dans ce cas un jean ajusté pour les hommes et slim pour les femmes.
The regular jean with its straight cut suits all body types !
Do you have an hourglass figure? Opt for high-waisted jeans that are very vintage !
If you're tall, flared jeans are made for you.
For men with muscular legs, choose a straight-cut jean in the thighs, like the tapered jeans from Le Temps des Cerises.
Tall women can go for 7/8 length jeans to elongate their look, and petite women can do the same, but only with heels! Curvy women are particularly highlighted in boyfriend jeans.
Good to know about choosing the color of your jeans: dark colors create a slimming effect, while light colors can add bulk.
Avoid embroidered or distressed jeans, as they can add volume if you have an apple-shaped figure. And if you don’t have much of a behind, go for the Pulp jeans from Le Temps des Cerises!
A Chic Evening in Jeans
A chic evening in jeans is possible! For both men and women, opt for black jeans that highlight your figure. Choose a fitted style for a more elegant look. You can also go for oil-treated black jeans to enhance that chic and dressed-up vibe. Women's 7/8 length jeans are a must-have to showcase your ankles and create a chic, ultra-feminine appearance !
Slim jeans, skinny jeans, or tapered jeans are perfect for a dressy outfit. Of course, pair your jeans with a chic top or shirt, a blazer, and dress shoes. Don't forget to accessorize with a pretty bag, a watch, beautiful jewelry, and maybe a pair of oversized sunglasses.
A Meeting at the Office in Jeans
Raw denim jeans are essential for a casual office look. They are the perfect denim pants that are easy to wear for a meeting. You can opt for regular jeans that suit all body types, for both women and men.
High-waisted flared jeans are also suitable for the office; pair them with a belt to accentuate your waist, a nice shirt, and a tailored jacket. This way, you can be both chic and professional !
A Casual Day in Jeans
Don’t hesitate to wear a more comfortable, slightly looser pair of jeans to feel at ease. Think boyfriend, mom, flare, or bootcut jeans for women, and relaxed, regular, or jogger jeans for men. Pair them with your favorite hoodie and a pair of sneakers, and you're all set !
