Rocking Jeans at Any Age

fashion your style May 28, 2024

Jeans have been a staple in our wardrobes for decades, and the debates around them never seem to end. There's a lot of buzz these days, especially with platforms like TikToc influencing what's *in* or what's *out.* You might have heard that skinny jeans are falling out of favour, with straight-legged and wide-legged jeans taking the spotlight. But a quick look around the stores, and on the street tells a different story - skinny jeans are still everywhere, which means plenty of us are still rocking them. It's a clear sign that trends aren't just driven by a few fashion gurus; they're driven by us, the everyday wearer.

So let's talk about another polarizing trend: distressed denim. Some might argue it's best left to the younger crowd, but fashion is a tool we use for personal expression. If distressed jeans fit your style and you wear them confidently, then they belong in your wardrobe, regardless of age.

However, moderation remains key with any trend. You can be fashion-forward in distressed jeans without looking like you're trying too hard. Here's how to strike a perfect balance.

 

  1. Ensure a good fit: Whether you're embracing skinny jeans or experimenting with straight-legged styles, the right fit is crucial. Jeans that fit well boost your confidence and comfort.
  2. Accessorize Smartly: Choose accessories that compliment your overall outfit. A great pair of shoes and a great handbag can make any type of jeans look stylish and fashion forward.
  3. Stay Open to Experimentation: One thing about staying stylish is being open to inspiration from all corners, even if it means taking a cue from the younger crowd. Yeah, they might have some wild street-style trends, but sometimes those crazy ideas end up being stylishly chic, even for older generations. Fashion is all about pushing boundaries and finding a bit more of your BOLD in finding what suits you best. 

I remember coaching my kids about trying new foods *You don't have to love it,* I'd say, *but at least try it. If you don't like it no biggie, you don't have to eat it.* It's the same deal with style really. Try some trends, if it doesn't vibe with you, no  pressure to make it part of your wardrobe. It's all about discovering what you like, whether that's in your closet or on your plate.
