Jeans for Big Thighs

Considered as an American fashion icon, jeans finds its place from an average Joe and Jane's wardrobe to gorgeous models like Gisele Bündchen, Miranda Kerr, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Chanel Iman; just to name a few. Whether this style is worn in a down-to-earth manner or as one of the latest fashionable way, a pair of jeans work wonders. A style statement of its kind, a pair of perfectly fitting jeans is loved and adored by everyone (who can afford them). As a worldwide phenomenon, it is not a surprising fact that many people have more than one pair of jeans. Every generation has continued to bring new and innovative designs, cuts, patterns, and colors to jean fashion which helps sell confidence and social status along with it. So, when the entire world is crazy about wearing them, why should anyone, just because of big thighs be without them.

Nobody ever said that jeans can only be worn by slim and skinny people. Everyone has the right to wear any kind of clothes they like. However, what needs to be taken into consideration is that we should wear clothes that look attractive for our body type. Getting the right fit is not always easy, but when you do find those perfect pair of jeans for yourself, it seems like you've found heaven. You can easily pair them with tank tops, shirts, t-shirts, and other tops. It is true that women who have a slim figure can easily find jeans for themselves. However, that doesn't mean that curvy women can't find jeans that can accentuate their physique. So to help you make the right decision while shopping for jeans, here are some things you should keep in mind.

Get the Right Fit for Skinny Jeans

Whoever said that women with big thighs can't wear skinny jeans, was wrong. So what if some of us have big thighs; that doesn't mean we should be demoralized into buying skinny jeans. The trick lies while you're shopping. Knowing exactly what to look for in your jeans is the key here. There are times when a person can make errors in finding the jeans that fit their body type; and this error has to be avoided. Believe it or not, you can wear a pair of skinny jeans to elongate your legs, even if you have big thighs. The first step is to find a pair that is dark in color (perhaps an indigo blue or black). Plus, you need to make sure that they're not too tight around your legs. The reason being, your legs need space to breathe and the jeans won't make you look like you're trying too hard to fit into them. Wouldn't you agree that when we wear dark t-shirts or dresses, we tend to look slimmer? That's the idea we want to work for in our jeans.

Another tactic on wearing skinny jeans is, completing the look with a long tunic and belt over the midsection. This makes, people will focus on your waist and not on your thighs. As the trend goes, skinny jeans have become one of the "must have" clothes in almost every woman's wardrobes. Models and celebrities seen on television and fashion magazines have made it perfectly clear, that you get caught (figure of speech) without a pair of skinny jeans in your closet, you are not someone who admires fashion. But that isn't the case, or is it? Everyone has their own opinion, and looking slim in your favorite pair of jeans has become a fashion necessity. And if you want to get some tips on how you wear a particular style (with jeans), then what the celebrities for? Copy or reinvent any of their style statements and you're good to go.

In order to nail the illusion of slimmer legs, wearing pointy boots can do the trick. If you own a pair of pointy boots with a few inches of heels, you can add height and style to your skinny jeans and overall look. It works best for women with heavy thighs. Another issue that might crop up in finding the best jeans is your calves. You can choose either black, beige, or tan-colored boots. The skinny and straight boot-cut jeans have the tendency to hug your legs in a way to give it shape. Wear the boots over your jeans, keeping it tucked inside to hide the calves. This way, the concentration shifts from the thighs and calves to the overall skinny look. It works wonders, trust me.

Things to Avoid During Shopping

With all the 'do this' and 'do that' while buying jeans, we haven't concentrated on the 'don'ts'. They are also important as these 'don'ts' will definitely tempt you and make you choose the wrong style for your body type. Before you can walk out of that store, there are some tips that need to be followed inside the fitting room itself.

• Low-rise, too skinny, and ultra-low waist jeans make you get "muffin tops" on your waist. Try to avoid this shopping blunder. It doesn't make you look proportionate, but bulky and trying to hide the curves. You need a pair which is mid-rise and boot-cut. This will prevent your belly from looking bulky. Or, you can try flared jeans. However, make sure that they are not too flared from the bottom.
• Don't buy a pair of jeans with any kind of faded pattern on them. It may be essential to follow a particular fashion trend; however, that doesn't work in our favor all the time. And, that is a very crucial thing to look for in jeans for women with big thighs. The faded look will come and go, and it doesn't help you when you're trying to make your thighs look slim. All it does is make the hip look wider and the thighs, heavier.
• When we say no to low-rise jeans, we also say 'no' to the 'mom' jeans. I'm talking about jeans that go way over the waist area. Even though they work wonders in hiding or tucking in your tummy, the overall look is just not working. These jeans look as if the waist has disappeared somewhere and the top of the jeans is over your stomach. It doesn't matter how many kids you may or may not have. The jeans that goes above your waist will always look shapeless and unflattering. If you wish to hide your tummy, try a belt with a bigger buckle.
• For curvy women, stretchable jeans will do nothing in hiding the thighs, or any other body part for that matter. The concept always backfires as it creates the look of something stuffed inside the jeans, which is too small for the material. So, even if you are getting the skinny 'stretchy' jeans, avoid the ones that stretch too much and make your thighs look fuller.

Trial and error (that too only in the fitting rooms, and not after buying the wrong pair of jeans) is what you're looking for while finding the best jeans. The tactic to wearing jeans for bigger thighs is not to buy one that's too tight and not too stretchy. Avoid the extremes on both sides. I know it may sound contradicting, but you will know what I'm talking about once you go inside the fitting room yourself. Ask a friend to tag along and ask for her advice on the same. You'll definitely get important suggestions and your shopping day will obviously be fruitful.
