Everyone Needs a Perfect Pair of Organic Jeans!

Everyone needs a perfect pair of comfy jeans and since mine are going to need to be replaced soon, I did a bit of searching and found some great deals on these super soft and comfy, organic blue jeans. Since five of the top nine pesticides used to produce cotton are carcinogens, it’s really important to buy organic whenever you can

Del Forte Organic JeansDel Forte Denim (starting at $170 with free shipping at GreenLoop.com)
They were the first and they’re still the best. Del Forte Denim believes that true luxury is the combination of great design and ethical production practices. That’s why they only use certified organic cotton and safe, clean, fairly compensated manufacturing. Send them back for recycling and you’ll get 10% off your next pair.

The Good Society (starting at $106 with free shipping at GreenLoop.com)
The Good Society label centers around its collection of fairly traded 100% organic denim with clean styling and a fit that ensures it will be the pair you wear to look good and feel great. Available in slim and bootcut styles.

Levi’s Eco Jeans (starting at $44 on Amazon with free shipping)
Look for the Eco label on many of Levi’s classic styles. Organic cotton and recycled denim fabrications.

Reef Heritage Organic Denim Pant for $40 on Amazon
Pull on the Reef Men’s Heritage Organic Denim Pants to show you’re down for the cause. Reef made these regular-fit jeans with 100% organic cotton to minimize impact on the environment. A regular rise and straight cut make these classic denims with an eco touch.

Eileen Fisher Organic Cotton Stretch Denim Straight Jean ($148 at Naturals of Ashland)
Rivets and contrast stitching provide an updated look on this five-pocket classic, while the comfort cut and fit Monarch Organic Cotton Jeansremains the high quality we love from Eileen Fisher. Cut with ease through the thigh and knee with a contoured comfort waist and back yoke.

Monarch in Black (for $145 at EdunOnline.com)
5-pocket black magic bootcut jeans with tonal Edun leaf detail. Made of 98% organic cotton.

Looking for an even better value? Kmart and Walmart both offer some Greensource organic denim options for as little as $8 as part of their Route 66 and Faded Glory lines. You can even trace your pants back through the manufacturing process using an included tracking number.

Bravo Announces Real Housewives Clothing Line

New York? Atlanta? Orange County?

We already know some of the Real Housewives have their own clothing lines. But now, Bravo is coming out with an actual Real Housewives clothing line. Are you as confused as we are?

Well, allegedly the clothing line is going to consist of apparel inspired by the fashion and style of the Real Housewives. But aren’t the Real Housewives all incredibly different? Not only from city to city, but within each city as well.

According to the Executive Vice President and General Manager of Bravo Media, “Since launching Bravo Media, we have had incredible success with our brand extensions… We’re dedicated to providing high quality products to our passionate consumers, as well as opportunities for our viewers to experience our series beyond their TV screens. Royal Plush’s contemporary designs reflect the bold, stylish and fun personalities of our Real Housewives.” Well, bold, stylish, and fun does describe most of the housewives. Though some of them are more angry than anything. But we guess that wouldn’t translate well to clothing.

It’s said the line will consist of premium denim, loungewear, activewear, handbags, and accessories. And you won’t have to wait long as the Real Housewives inspired line is said to be coming out this fall!

We’re not sure how well the line will do though. It’s not even a celebrity clothing line; it’s more of a network clothing line.

Are you excited about a Real Housewives inspired line? Let us know in comments!

Diesel Denim Jeans for Men

diesel-jeans

Whenever I see guy’s jeans that I like, they’re always Diesel. I’m always trying to convince my husband to buy a pair, because he’s always complaining about the structure of his jeans: they wear out too quickly, stretch out too quickly, get too baggy too fast. But I’ve never seen a bad looking pair of Diesel jeans.

Unfortunately my husband is NOT likely to part with what it costs to, well, essentially guarantee that your jeans are going to look good! So I did a little digging and I found some Diesel discount sites as well as places that sell for a slightly reduced price. You might have to pick up last year’s styles, but I know plenty of guys who just wouldn’t care.

Transition Your Boyfriend Jeans For Fall

Fans of boyfriend jeans will be thrilled to know that they’re not just a spring/summer trend. To rock them in the fall, pile on layers like cardigans, blazers, leather jackets and more. On your feet, you can wear ballet flats or heels for as long as your bare ankles can stand the cold. When the temperature drops, turn to ankle boots instead. Below are some runway looks and shoe choices for inspiration:

Men’s Wide Legged Jeans – A Fashion “Do?”

mens-loose-denim-jeans

One of the denim looks for guys this fall is wide-cut jeans, but these aren’t as sloppy as you’d think, and they don’t look like what I remember years go. This style of jeans is not fitted, even around the hips, but they’re also not completely shapeless, if you can imagine that.  The idea is to pair them with a loose button-down, or with sweaters as the weather chills.

I can certainly see the appeal of having some comfortable jeans for autumn and winter, and with prices on these jeans starting around just $25, you really can’t go wrong.  You may as well try the look and see how it works for you – I’m guessing that this will be really flattering on guys with a more substantial build.  Guys who are more slim may want to stick with a style that won’t swallow them up.

B+S Wants—J Brand/Hussein Chalayan Denim Jodhpurs

Alright, I know I just posted about the J Brand Gallery at Ron Herman Melrose yesterday, but while it’s still fresh on the mind, I wanted to tell you what’s been on my mind ever since—the J Brand/Hussein Chalayan jodhpur-esque jeans. I was immediately transfixed on J Brand co-founder/designer Susie Crippen at the launch Saturday: Did I like them? Are they crazy? Now, I’m a bit obsessed. I’m going to have to go back and at least try a pair on to see if the looseness/bunching at the thigh and knee, tightness through the calf and ankle works as well pour moi as it does for a seriously toned and lithe Crippen. The fit might not be the only thing that stands in my way, as the collab collection runs in the $200-plus arena (which, I actually thought would be more). Fortunately, obsessing is totally free.
