Fashion Fusion: THE JEGGING


Have you been wondering if skinny jeans can get any skinnier? Well it turns out, they can. The concept of fusion is not limited to cuisines, we now have a merger of styles: leggings+jeans= JEGGINGS. This recent trend first emerged in the UK and several pairs of Jeggings can be found at none other than Britain's finest, Topshop! You can also find similar styles at

AMERICAN APPAREL.



This stylistic hybrid is made out of either spandex or polyester giving providing the effect of the legging, however, the texture of the fabric resembles denim. Just beware that these ditties are skin tight and you might want to reconsider wearing underwear that day.

Denimology: THE SKINNY ON HOLY JEANS!

A few months ago it was the boyfriend jean, but now we are seeing a new development: torn jeans. While jeans with holes have been a trend for decades, the tears and shreds have been brought to a new level. It is merging grunge with punk rock with hipster. The cut of these ultra-torn jeans is skinny. The best part is, these jeans are being worn by a variety of Hollywood glamazons. These jeans can be worn casually during the day and also out at night. They are most commonly being seen in black and acid wash.

Attack of the boyfriend jean

Ahhhh.. what are these celebrities thinking? And you remember this lovely incident. These jeans are so completely unflattering for the body- even waifish looking stars look thick in the hips and matronly. Do not try this at home!! I don't know why anyone would want to leave their house looking like they just got in a fight with a paranha or just generally sloppy



If you want something more comfy and easy going why not try one of these styles:


They are both wide leg but there's some shape in the hips and thighs- and they both look PUT TOGETHER!! Simple- yet chic! Not like a slob.

The new Kate Moss?


I think not. What is this outfit? It actually scares me a little. Maybe a lot even. One because it's hideous. And two because I am assuming Katie Holmes thinks it looks really cute? Or maybe she thinks if she looks crazy enough the paparazzi wont know its her?? Sorry Katie, it doesn't look like it's working. I guess I will title this: WHAT NOT TO WEAR.
