Comeback of Jeans!

Jeans were not only referring to "pants" (as we know now) in the 80s. It was a type of cloth for suits, shirts, jackets and bags. This trend of jeans came back in the spring/summer of 2010. Linen, cotton, silk; these are fashionable fabric for fashionistas, but why not try a new style? I mean, a style which existed before but came back. JEANS! Some people might wonder how to match jeans shirts or jeans jackets with other items. There's a million, trillion ways to do that!

1. Jeans jacket: Try tying up the jeans jacket while you're in the beach! It looks cool and chic. You might want to match hot-pants (very short pants) in the bottom to emphasize the cool look.


2. Jeans vest: Too cowboyish? No! Lots of Hollywood stars wear jean vests with a simple white tshirt to look casual.


3. Jeans jumpsuits: Jumpsuits are not only for tall people if you have jeans jumpsuits! They make your legs look longer and they are extremely comfortable. Match a pair of gladiator shoes with your jeans jumpsuits and you'll immediately become the Next Top Model for any country!

Reminder: Try not to match two jean items at once. It might look too blue and "jeany"!

Be a fashionista with the best jean items!

Trend: Only for Women?

"Fashion" is frequently mistaken as a word only for women and girls. Lots and lots of men say, "We don't care, it's only girls who care about their clothes." Is it really?

Designers and their brands such as Hugo Boss, Dolce and Gabbana, Giorgio Armani, and Paul Smith, have separate collections for men as well. In the Spring & Summer collection of many brands, there has been a "boom" of check-patterned shirts and vests.


Check-patterned shirts has gained popularity among women and men. In Burberry's 2009 Spring & Summer fashion show, models have showed up with various check-patterned shirts such as red&beige, black&white, and more.


Check-patterned shirts are absolutely popular in the runway, but also in the streets. We can see lots of men wearing them with black suits to establish a semi-formal look or with jean jackets to show a casual look especially for students and teenagers. Matching a colorful check-patterned shirts with a simple t-shirt as an inner layer can be a perfect outfit for the spring.



Vests can be a fashion item for both casual and formal outfits for men. For decades, vests have been a must-item for formal outfits with suits. It adds a chic look to the outfit and it covers the simplicity of a plain y-shirt inside the suit. Grey and black are one of the popular colors of vest among men because it doesn't stick out too much, and it adds unity to the outfit.



Vests are not only for formal clothes; it also matches well with jeans and casual shirts. It establishes a semi-formal look with its perfect match with jeans. Matching the color is an important thing to do when wearing vests. You can wear a check or argyle patterned shirt with the same blend of color vest.
