Denim Rules and Regulations

Denim is more than what you wear on your legs. It memorizes your shape, fades (or not) with torn and if worn correctly and sets your style apart from the crowd. So don't ignore this key staple in your wardrobe.

1. Denim on Denim. It's all about layers. A t-shirt under a denim shirt or the edginess of multi-colours of denim all in one outfit will complete the look.

2. Dark vs. Light. Dark denim has its moment in the sun but lighter washes are really coming back strong. Lighter means a better fit is essential as you will see wrinkles and sagging much more easily.

3. Short Shorts. The shorter the better! Frayed edges are huge right now.

4. To Wash or Not To Wash? Lean toward less is more. Jeans do better and hold their colour and shape the less they see the washer. When and if you do have to wash them, turn them inside out and skip the dryer. Hang them up and let the (or heater) do the work.
