What You Need To Know About Jeans
No one likes a pair of bad fitting jeans! A lot of the time, we feel as if there is something wrong with our bodies when we put on a piece of clothing that doesn’t fit right. However, a lot of jeans just aren’t suited for our body type. Buying a pair of proper fitting jeans will flatter you and your body in the perfect way possible. Let’s talk about how to look for tweaks and changes when it comes to shopping for a pair of proper fitting jeans.
BODY SHAPE IN A PAIR OF PROPER FITTING JEANS
Once you are able to understand your specific body shape, you will understand how to shop for a pair of proper fitting jeans. Different types of rises in jeans are defined as the distance from the waistband of the jeans to the crotch seam. Low-rise jeans have the shortest distance between these two areas, while high-rise jeans have the longest distance between these two areas.
A low-rise pair of jeans for example, emphasizes the hips and all kinds of curves of your body whether the top you are wearing is tight or flowy. If you’re a tall and slender women who is looking to add more feminine curves to your figure, then a low-rise jean can make your hips look curvier, while lengthening your torso to balance out long leg’s. Low rise jeans sit well bellow your belly button and allows any love handles to spill over the top of your jeans which will create “muffin tops.” A muffin top is basically the extra fat that spills out over your jeans. If you have a muffin top, it means that your jeans are either too tight or too low.
If your figure is very curvy from the back, then a pair of high-waisted jeans is best for you. Along with this, if you have an hourglass body shape, then high-waisted jeans are a great fit for you, because they accentuate your narrow waist and help trim more defined looking hip’s. High rise jeans sit at your belly button and holds in your love handles which conceals a muffin top look. If you have a curvy figure, then a low-rise pair of jeans is going to draw attention towards an area like a muffin top.
It is important to wear specific jeans that will provide a balance to your specific body figure. A pair of proper fitting jeans will make you look amazing!

VISUAL ILLUSIONS IN PROPER FITTING JEANS
While darker color jeans make for a more slimmer look, lighter colors on the other hand tend to make things look bigger. When you take a look at your clothing, you will start to have a better understanding of what types of things you want for your body.
For example, if you are someone who is very tall and thin, then a dark washed colored jeans with a light center will allow you to keep your figure and appearance. However, if you are someone who has a more curvy shaped body, then any extra curves on your body will be highlighted and doubled in size just by the white wash color in the jeans going down the center.
Understanding the different color jeans and what areas of your body are being highlighted based on the different colors is important. This way, you can purchase the perfect pair of proper fitting jeans.

PAY ATTENTION TO SPACING WHEN SHOPPING FOR A PAIR OF PROPER FITTING JEANS
Whenever you go shopping for a new pair of jeans, you must always pay attention to the spacing between the end of the zipper and the crotch section of the pant. If there is space, then that is not a good thing and can be a massive deal breaker for a lot of people. When you put the jeans on, since there is a bunch of empty space with no zipper or pockets, you will get a Camel Toe every single time you move and feel a sense of discomfort.
This big blank space on your jeans is very eye-catching and noticeable to a lot of people. When a brand takes extra time to create the jeans in a way where the zipper is longer, it stops drying eye to the crotch area and overall elongates your body shape. Investing in a pair of jeans that makes your body look its best is definitely worth it in the long run when considering your cost-per-wear.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROPER FITTING JEANS
Did you know that there are more than 5 types of jean styles that are designed for women? It can definitely be difficult when it comes to understanding what type of jeans style matches your body shape best. A few different types of jeans include, boyfriend jeans, skinny jeans, straight jeans, bootcut jeans, flare jeans, low rise jeans, high-waist jeans and much more!
Be sure to pay close attention to jeans that sit low on your hips or high on your waist. If your jeans do not fit right on your hips or waist, then you will most likely never feel comfortable in your jeans. Low-riding hipster jeans and high-waisted jeans are the perfect examples to achieve this specific look. Jeans that fall right on your hips will only make them look more square and flattering.

THE NECK TRICK FOR PROPER FITTING JEANS
Sometimes in stores when we hold the jeans up right in front of our faces, they tend to always look bigger than they really are. In order to see if a pair of jeans is going to fit you, you can wrap the jeans around your neck and by doing this, determine if they are going to fit your waist. If there is any extra slack, then you know the jeans will be big for your waist and won’t be a pair of proper fitting jeans. If the waistline of the jeans comfortable meets the back of your neck, then the jeans will fit you. If you can’t get the jeans to touch around your neck, then you will know that the jeans will be a tight fit around your waist and you can then size up.

CARE FOR YOUR JEANS
Usually, every pair of jeans includes a type of plastic that is not a fabric. This plastic is what enables our jeans to be stretchy, and the minute you toss your jeans into the dryer, you are going to burn right through it. After putting your jeans into the dryer, they are going to look super soggy and baggy once you take them out and put them on. And, this will result in them not being a pair of proper fitting jeans.
