Jeans are something that everyone has in their closet, it can be a pair that you had bought years ago or something that you really invested in. As for me, I always believed in investing in the right kind of jeans- something that you can use every day or something that you can mix and match to show different personalities.
Skinny Jeans has been on-trend for years now and my pair of Levi’s Sculpt Jeans has always been my go-to since it’s comfortable and it fits me perfectly. I’m only 5 feet tall so it has always been very hard for me to find the perfect fitting jeans, luckily Levi’s offer alteration so I got mine altered.
Since the pandemic, I’ve been stressing about all the clothes that I haven’t been using so it’s really practical that you have key pieces in your wardrobe that you can mix and match with other items.
I recently participated in the 7 Days 7 Ways Challenge of Levi’s where I was able to showcase 7 different looks using 1 pair of jeans. Here are some looks I came up with!
Since it has been raining, I decided to put together the look on the left. I paired my jeans with a denim bomber jacket also from Levi’s. I also just used a sports bra inside so I can use my workout clothes. I paired it with some boots and cuffed my jeans. Cuffing your jeans will really make it look different. On the right is one of my favorite looks. Since I have so many swimsuits, I usually pair them with jeans. It’s also a perfect look if you want to show off your curves!
Since I have been diving into k-dramas, these two looks are a little inspired by korean fashion. On the left is a turtle neck from Levi’s that I paired with my jeans. I paired it with my favorite Jordan’s to keep it laid back. On the right is a bit summer-y, I usually dress up like this for errands.
If you need key pieces in your wardrobe, the way I styled the above looks can be a guide on what to keep in your closet. On the far left is a look with a boyfriend shirt. This is a classic way to style your jeans and it can go from office to drinks with girlfriends look. In the middle I paired my jeans with a basic white top, this is perfect for those who want to look put together without overthinking. On the far right is a look that I have been seeing online, I used a silk scarf as a top!
Aside from investing in key pieces and using wardrobe items in different ways, you can also choose to buy sustainable items like Levi’s new collection. The new collection are made of cottonized hemp and recycled materials.
“This season we are continuing to deliver design-driven sustainability through fiber innovation such as Cottonized Hemp—the first to market—with a soft hand cotton-like hemp in our new forward style stories for men’s and women’s. We believe Style and Sustainability do go together”—says Karyn Hillman, Chief Product Officer at Levi Strauss & Co.
Levi’s recycled materials eliminate resources needed to grow cotton and make polyester. One form of polyester that they have is called Thermore which is 50% recycled polyester material that’s used in thermal lining, while Thermore EcoDown is a 100% recycled fiber down alternative made from recycled PET plastic bottles.
How about you? How do you style your favorite pair of jeans?
