Must-Read: What Kind of Jeans Are For You

You can keep your corduroys in your closet for the fancy nights out, and your Dockers will be sitting pretty when you need them for a formal (yet not TOO formal) function, but there’s one kind of pants that you have that will always be in style. And that’s jeans. Although, there are certain types of cuts and looks that jeans come in that, well, might not always be the best look at on.

Barack Obama has proven to be a staunch supporter of dad-like denim, but the vote of the people has been a resounding nay. And by people, we mean women.
