Relax and look your best in slim fit jeans
Women's slim fit jeans are the perfect happy medium between a traditional straight cut and modern skinny jeans. If you find that skinny jeans are just too unforgiving, choose a pair of slim fits instead. These should be narrow through the leg, but they don't have that second-skin style that you'll get from skinny jeans. They're a versatile cut that you can wear for everything from ultra-relaxed days out to smart-casual occasions; they're smarter than skinnies, but a bit more feminine than straight cut jeans. Choose your favourite colour of denim, experiment with different rises, and get ready to flaunt your fabulous legs!
Finding the perfect pair of jeans for you
One of the key elements of choosing a pair of slim fit jeans is the rise. As a general rule, low rise jeans only work well if you've got an athletic or rectangular figure. If not, then they're likely to leave you with a bit of a muffin top. Choose a mid-rise for a look that works on most figures or, if you've got wide hips but a small waist, go for a high rise finish. This will emphasise your waist, allowing you to create a more feminine silhouette. When it comes to colour, go dark if you're self-conscious about your hips or thighs; the darker the shade, the better. Lighter jeans will draw more attention, so go for them if you'd like to make a feature of your legs.
How to style a pair of slim fit jeans
Women's slim leg jeans are a versatile style, not as relaxed as skinnies. To make them more casual, roll up the legs a bit. Give yourself a turned over cuff; this is a perfect look if you'd like to wear a pair of statement shoes - either chunky trainers by day or heels by night. Cuff your jeans to above the ankle. This has an extra bonus effect of lengthening your legs and is a great way to go from day to evening in a flash. For a smarter look, wear your jeans with a button-down shirt tucked in. This is a fabulous style if you've chosen a high-rise pair, as it will really show off your waist; if you've chosen jeans in a dark colour, you'll look perfectly professional in a more casual workplace.
