For spring and summer 2010 the top denim trend I believe everyone should follow are cuffed jeans. Pegging or rolling your jeans is classic and can truly contribute to your outfit if you follow a few HIP tips. First, make sure to wear stunning shoes when you roll your jeans because they become the center of attention. Second you need to make sure you keep proportions in control. J Brand recommends three inchs from the top of your ankle but if you are taller you may want your cuff a bit higher.

This trend is great too if your jeans are always too long when you first buy them. It is also saves you some time and frustration when deciding whether to hem your jeans for flats or heels because pegging allows you to wear them with both.

Check out the cuffed jean styles currently available at Hand In Pocket above.

The oversized comfy boyfriend look everyone began to love last year has returned with a vengeance for the warmer months ahead. For Spring 2010 the boyfriend style includes the classic tailored button down in white and blue, plaid, loose fitting tees, oversized cotton blazers and slouchy cardigans. To make this loose, lazy-day look feel more polished, pair any of these tops with sleek, fitted jeans and cuff them if you desire.

The boyfriend style has also shown up in women’s shorts. This year shorts are longer and have a higher rise, which makes them perfect to tuck your top into and show off a stylish belt. The jean dubbed “the boyfriend jean” or the “the ex lover jean” has been revamped and given a slightly more tapered style while still keeping them comfy, casual and cool.

Moto denim has been a huge trend this year and it’s sticking around for the spring and summer. If you want to soften up this edgy style jean you should try pairing them with a more feminine top.
