Since AG Jeans brought in a new designer from another infamous premium denim brand; the AG premium denim line has climbed back to the top of the denim totem pole. Offering a fit for every woman in need of new denim in a wide range of prices along with a few other innovative factors has helped them get back on top.

With the addition of their “AG-ed Vintage” line the AG brand secured its foothold as a visionary in the premium denim category. AG-ed denim is handcrafted to replicate a true vintage jean offered in a naturally aged appearance by 1 thru 30 years. This new wash process uses revolutionary technology and is the first in the market developed in the US, to achieve an authentic look of natural variations of wear and tear made especially to wear more over time. No two pairs of jeans are alike in this collection! If you are looking for that one, perfectly worn-in and faded pair of jeans the “AG-ed Vintage” Stilt Skinny Jean in 6 Year Project shown in the first picture above is the jean for you.

AG has also “gone green” by creating a more eco friendly method for denim manufacturing. All of their jeans will now be produced by using Ozone Technology, a process that significantly reduces the company’s water consumption, use of chemicals and dirty energy.

Celebrities in HIP Denim

Audrina Patridge was out and about in Beverly Hills this week with friend and "The Hills" co-star Stephanie Pratt. Audrina was wearing The Chelsea Skinny Fit Jean in Ryder from Joes Jeans ($167), which are currently avalible at Hand In Pocket. I love how she paired them with an ivory blouse and cognac wedges for a glamorous dressed up day look. For a similar look try Mystree’s One Shoulder Ruffle Top in Oatmeal ($42). It is nice to see Audrina in another pair of jeans besides Divine Rights of Denim for once!

The Misconception of “Skinny Jeans”

In a recent issue of InStyle magazine there was an article called “6 Reasons to Get Excited About Jeans”. Out of all these reasons there was one that I had to share with you.

“Reason: Skinny; One common misconception when it comes to slender cuts: You have to have dimensions approximating a toothpick to look good in them. In fact, "skinny" refers to the leg opening, not to the body that should go in it. The rules for a perfect fit are universal. "You always want a pair that's flat around the tummy, has the right amount of stretch, and just enough give at the knee—with no sagging," says Victoria Beckham, creator of DVB Denim.”

Premium denim designers know that everyone is not shaped like a NYC runway model. No matter where you wear your curves there is a brand out there for you and each designer makers several different fits in their skinny jeans.

If you like a higher rise, or are sporting some extra curves around the butt and hips try:
