Know your Jeans

Know your Jeans

To often jeans are just too long for most women but you have two options here. Any jeans will shrink a half inch in the dryer so wash them before you wear them. Once you have done this, then will shrink no more and you can have them tailored to the length you want.  Pick the shoes you will wear them with and have them professionally hemmed so they look finished. There are also jeans out there that are sold by the inseam length. You will find ranges of petite to tall and they can be found at the Gap, J. Crew, Lee, Lucky Brand Jeans and even Levi’s. The cost of jeans is another concern of most women. Any jeans that cost over one hundred dollars have been made with an attention to detail and are considered premium. The fabric is high quality, in the weave and fiber so they are stronger but softer. Denim generally come from Japan, the United States or Italy and will then cost more than denim from China. If your jeans have been purposely faded, or frayed, that was done by hand. The more complicated the wash the more the jeans will cost. And lastly, premium brands of jeans have been through extensive fit testing and that too will drive the price up.
