Trend Alert: The new, skinnier boyfriend jeans are relaxed and comfortable, yet fresh enough to satisfy Alicia's fashion-forward cravings. "I absolutely love these" she says of her distressed J Brands. "They accentuate my butt but also make me look really slim."
Jeans, J Brand, $249. Jacket, Basler, $585. Top, Kain, $190. Earrings, Lydell NYC. Bracelet, Ben-Amun. Shoes, Aldo.
Here's the definitive boyfriend jean cuffing method:
1. Fold the hems up one inch (no pegging!).
2. Roll once—and only once. "They shouldn't look too perfect or too high."
(
Fun Fact: The average woman owns seven pairs of jeans—but wears just four.)
