it's good to see you grab photos from real people not alot of actual models..real people are real models to me .love you content!!
Thank you so much Karman!
Well many of them being influencers, they do a fair bit of modeling themselves, no?
I appreciate that you have been adding more photos of plus sized women! Thank you so much! xo
It was about time that models nowadays come in all sizes. I'm thin but I'm tired of seeing only thin models most of my life. Beauty comes in all sizes
We used to call Flares “Bell-bottoms”! 😉
I scoured the racks for flared denim all throughout the 2010s -- so glad that wide leg, flares, and straight leg jeans are back in style! I hope all jean styles stay available so that people can choose whatever silhouettes they like.
Perfectly done Alyssa! I appreciate how you aren’t telling anyone the rules of what they should wear but instead being neutral/ positive in how you describe each cut. ❤️🙏 I’m an average height busty woman (5ft 5 & 1/2 and I think reverse triangle body type) and I’m tired of people telling me to wear wide leg/ flared jeans. I hate wide leg/ flared jeans with a passion! When I wear them, I just feel 4 sizes larger than I am. I feel best in high waisted skinny or straight leg jeans because they elongate my legs while showing the delicate and slenderness in my bottom half. I make sure to pair them with the right cut top for my bust (usually v neck or scoop neck) to flatter my upper half. I so appreciate you allowing us busty ladies to emphasise our legs instead of bulking them up. If that makes my silhouette more dramatic, then call me a thespian 🎭 😆😁. #StopHatinOnSkinnyJeans
Same here
I don't like skinny jeans, they make my legs look so skinny and my shoulders wider, I feel like a skinny legged man when I wear them, people make fun of my skinny legs when I wear them.
Even though I'm 5'5", I order my GAP bootcut jeans in petite; sometimes they're just too long. Petite fits me perfectly.
Great tip thank you Jerelyn! xx
Thanks Alyssa, this was SO helpful! I would love to see a similar video about skirts - different shapes and cuts and how to style them :)
I love a high rise jean. I've already lived through a low rise jean stage back when my flat snatched stomach could rock that but now, I love all my foods and a high rise jean helps pull my stomach in. I feel confident and that's what matters most. 😁
I really appreciate this video. My takeaway was, while I may have a preferred jean style/one style that compliments my body more, all styles are open to me per what I want to highlight, and the tops and shoes I use. I have at least 3 pairs of skinny jeans I regret buying b/c they were trending, but don't look as good as my bootcuts. Now I see it's b/c they needed a different approach than the bootcuts. Looking at them like a pair of tights was really inspiring! So many options to consider now! Also, I really liked the photo examples. I will be experimenting, for sure!
yes! Exactly! I'm so glad you found the video helpful Patricia! xx
Qqqq
Very informative video! Great examples! I missed your, "It's Alyssa coming at ya" .
Oh, lots of great ideas with lots of different styles and body shapes. I wear lots of different styles of jeans, but I realised that although I wear quite a few wide-legged trousers I don't actually have wide-legged jeans!
This was perfect thank you so much. I love them all right now.
I love the easy definitions you provided of each style of jeans.
Love all these tips!✨
Loved this video, and I really appreciate your using such varied body types and ages in your examples - that's truly the best way to show off all the possibilities (particularly for those of us who tend to say "I can't wear that!"). So inspiring!
So beautifully done. Thank you for all the work you've put into making this video 💙
So informative. Thank you! 💙💙
Great jeans analysis. I’m really looking forward to your personal styling series.
Thanku Bella..the most honest & informative review ive ever seen..true professional..💝
Thanks for addressing this topic. I appreciate your perspective and the options that you offer with the different styles. It helped me understand how to style different cuts of jeans.
Loved this video so much i watched it a couple of times!!! It really makes me want to try all these styles now!!!
Girl, I loved this video! All sizes represented. All seasons covered. The information was so helpful. Thank you so much. ❤️
Fantastic tips, Thank you.
So interesting how you state that skinnies "fade into the background." I never thought of that but that is EXACTLY how I've worn them! I've been admiring some of the other shapes, especially the flares and wide legs right now and I've been "studying" to figure out how to wear them as it's clearly something different for me! Thanks for your ideas and analysis. I've always wanted to dress with European style, so to speak. You have a very pleasant manner in your presentations. Ciao!
So good Alyssa!! Great video. I have not heard this kind of in depth commentary on styling different denim styles before. Thank you :)
Great vid thanks. Thanks for including real people of all body types👏👏❣️
Thank you! Great video! Thanks for being inclusive if curvy and plus size figures! Looking forward to more styling videos!
Thank you for showing different body shape! Nice job on this jean video! ♥️
I knit and this was great for giving me ideas for the best way to feature my hand knits.
So so helpful!
Thank you ! Best video on denim ever! I am 5 feet and like trying each o the styles you mentioned and love your tips/suggestions.
I loved the pics you chose. Different body types look different in certain styles and it helped me decide which styles I should try first in the future
This was SO great. Your analysis helped me to know how I can wear my various denim pants. I am short, long waisted and an inverted triangle...so I really listened. There was so much in this video for everyone s d showed your knowledge ! Very interested I hearing more about personal styling...enjoy your week.
Could you please share few points you noted down? it would help me a lot. Looks like our bodies are similar :)
@@uditapatel778 She mentioned that she has short legs and thus wears high waisted jeans. I’ve just started doing this.
She also noted that when wearing flares or wider leg pants for my body type I am balancing off that larger shoulder /larger chest by wearing those wide leg pants. Straight leg pants are good for most body types because they automatically help to balance off if you have a smaller bottom larger top like I do. She also mentioned a few occasions win, I guess, we can break the rules by wearing the wide leg pants and maybe something roomier on top. I hesitate to do that and go more for the more fitted top that she suggested would be better, but I might try wearing something with a little more volume. Hope this helps
@kathy steele thank you so much :) This makes perfect sense ! Your comment gave me some ideas on wearing a linen wide leg pants I couldn't style.
Fantastic video!!! Alyssa, you are one of a kind UNIQUE and AMAZING..... LOVE LOVE your clear explanation for styling jeans.
I am very excited about your announcement to initiate some form of personal styling. This is a much needed service and gift you are giving to all women. Count me in as your admiring customer!!
Ahh thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement!! xx
Great video Alyssa! Much needed and will inform my outfit combinations moving forward!👍🏽
I'm so glad you found it helpful! xx
Great job, thank you! It seems like I mostly gravitate towards the skinny, straight & wide leg denim styles. 💟
Thank you this was great. I now understand the world of denim
Excellent video--thanks!
Agree - wide leg for the win!
Very helpful and love your videos 😊
Such a helpful breakdown, thank you! I'd love to hear your take on pairing different cuts of jeans with different styles of shoes.
Awesome video! I just bought the wide leg jeans. They are great 😊
thank you for including larger model examples.
Such a helpful video--loved each pic and your guidance! Thank you for taking the time, effort and care😘
I'm so glad you found it helpful Linda!
Very interesting! but I am still on the hunt for the perfect fitting one!!!
Finding the perfect fit can be so frustrating! At 5'2" it took me awhile to determine that petite sizes didn't work for me as the rise was too short but a regular size in short length was the answer. I found the perfect barely bootcut jean (great for my body type) and bought multiples since styles are retired so quickly. Great video💚
I am also 5'2". What brand/style did you buy? Denim is the hardest thing for me to find!
@@lose999 I find that Lee jeans fit me best. I am a fan of Easy Fit version as they have a little stretch but still look like denim. They are so comfortable and keep their shape without bagging out💚
@@cafefay Thank you :)
Great video! 😊😊
This was so useful. I’d love it if you could make a similar one about pants/ trousers.
I have all those types of jeans ( exept the wide leg ) and love them all😉.
This is great! Thank you.
Thank you for such great content and the diverse body types presented. You inspire me every week to see my closet in a different way. Have a wonderful week! Stay safe!
That is music to my ears! Thank you Erica so glad you liked the video! xx
Love that you included plus size models too!
Always! xx
I feel huge with wide leg, I do like a straight leg, so will try this look, I wear a skinny as I do have a slim long thigh & calf , I wear a lot of Ralph Lauren blazers , but thanks for the tips Alyssa xx🇬🇧
Great content, as usual.😊
Excellent video Alyssa, such useful practical information. I usually wear a midrise as I'm very short waisted with a X hourglass figure. As they tend to fit me more like a high rise. One thing I have noticed that makes a huge difference to the look of jeans on me is the length of the zipper/fly of the jeans, the longer length (from waist band to the crotch almost) are way more flattering than a shorter zipper/fly finishing around 4 to 5cm from the crotch. I have found less expensive petite jeans have the shorter zippers/fly (hope this makes sense). 😄😆💜
U are absolutely right. Shorter zipper creates the V shape near the crotch area sometimes, which is really unflattering in photos 🤣
@@hris9214 Yes, thats exactly what I meant Zara. Thankfully you were able to grasp my meaning 😆
Loved this video, so informative!! How you styled everything was perfection. I love the fashion inspirations showcased in the video too! ❤
I'm so glad you liked it Frederica! xx
Great video !
Great video 👖
Thank you, great video
Alyssa, super duper helpful! I never stopped wearing straight leg jeans so I'm happy they are back in style - LOL. I love denim and I think having a variety of silhouettes (and colors) can really change up your style. Thanks so much and looking forward to what you have in store for personal styling!
Thank you so much Nancy I'm glad you liked this and are excited about the personal styling! xx
So helpful.....thanks!
This was great thank you
How did I miss this video! I knew it was going to be great with all the prep, analysis, and thought Alyssa puts into her videos... Did not disappoint!
It would be great to see a video somewhere of the people you follow/look to for style inspiration. I know you got at this a little with the style icons video, but a wider list would be great too! You always have such inspiring example photos, and I want to go check these people out! :)
Hands down, the BEST descriptions and break down of denim I’ve ever seen. 🙏♥️ And thank you for showing so many beautiful women in diverse sizes. I need to watch it again.
Thank you so much for the high praise! xx
Dito! Couldn't agree more!
Alyssa, you always make me so excited to try out new looks from my wardrobe so, particularly as a woman who is learning how to compliment her new post pregnancy body, thank you for all that you do ❤️
I'm so glad you find it helpful Sam:)
Hi from Australia! You have such a pleasant manner. Love your channel. Keep up the great work! 😍😍
Thank you so much! xx
Right on point with the explanations of each cut of jeans. What I really appreciated the most , was that the pictures you where showing are very inclusive. 😉👏🏼
:) Thank you Carolina
Great video as always! I’ve been leaning away from jeans but I may need to try the boyfriend and straight cut. My skinny jeans are packed away for now. I wish we could just wear nice soft sweatpants!!🤗🦋
Thx.Alyssa! Very informative. I like wide leg in summer with really flowy boho or poet blouses or cropped wide capris. Skinny jeans with the blazers! Those flares are a tough call and same for the straight. May try the straight jeans cropprd with booties after seeing this vid Xoxo Joanne-- snow this week in AB, 🌹🌹
So refreshing, and helpful! Nice to "meet" someone who also adores a wide leg jean. I find that they are very lengthening and comfortable. Love your style and videos. It would be helpful - for some perspective on proportions - to know how tall you are. Thank you!
I’ve been updating my skinnies by wearing them tucked into knee-high boots, it’s not for summer, though, where I live. I like most other cuts better, but I’m going to hang onto them, as I do most clothes and accessories.
Thank you for this helpful video; it gave me some great styling ideas. I notice I've been reaching for my wide-leg jeans mostly lately. Not only do they look great, they're really comfortable.
Yes!! I am on the hunt for a pair!
I really love your videos! I'm glad I found your channel! however, I'm Italian :)
Good tips, I have all of these styles. I love jeans, they are the staple of my wardrobe. I don't understand the videos on going a week without wearing jeans. I have two dozen pairs in heavy and light fabric, light, medium and dark wash. I have all the styles, washes and weights to fit my mood and the weather.
Great video! Very illuminating!
As I am mostly home spending time on my bed during this last year, I have not reached for my jeans. When I go grocery shopping with my boyfriend I use that occasion to dress however I feel. A blush fringed sequined skirt,, band tee, beaten up suede flat boots and an oversized dad cardigan. Anything goes. Our favorite Trader Joe’s guy greets me with: “ you dressed up for me!”
As things are opening up, I will reach for my arsenal of jeans with your tips in mind.
Bisous chère Alyssa!
haha love your grocery shopping outfit Jeannette! Oddly enough when I go out I have also been choosing items other than jeans because it is such an occasion! Thank you for watching and have a great week! xx
This was so informative! I have a variety of denim jeans and each has its own purpose for the look I am achieving. I own THREE Ganni high waist wide leg jeans. They were expensive, but when I found them on sale deeply discounted in my size....I purchased cream, black and a blue denim. Then, there are the super, super wide denim jeans that look like a skirt! I really got lucky on that one.....which brings me to the denim skirt...oh ya!
Hi Lisa! Those Ganni jeans sound lovely! I agree, that they each serve a purpose depending on the overall look! I'm contemplating a denim skirt! Thank you for watching! xx
Help with belts and jeans!
Thanks for this amazing video! Denim is my kryptonite. As a petite with a straight body shape, I think skinny and long to the floor boot cut are best for me. Still looking for that perfect jean!
I'm so glad you liked it! They are tough to find, it takes patience but it's a fun hunt! xx
I'm more confident in a dress or skirt..but i managed and to find the proper fit in mens straight leg jeans. I think they are mid rise. I love them with my trenchcoat
Great video
Thanks for the great overview! I'd love to hear your thoughts on styling balloon jeans or tapered jeans. Would they fit under the wide leg suggestions?
Dang it RUclips ate my comment!
Awesome video Alyssa! I miss wearing denim throughout the week, dang business casual!
I love that there's a different style of jeans for everyone, I never used to wear denim because of the low rise. What can I say, I say no to crack!
I have a tip though, if you're petite and you want the look of long legs and you have a shorter torso, pick a mid-rise. I'm petite and anything above a 9-in rise sits really high on me like at my bra and sometimes I rock that, but if you're looking for that long legged look but find that your high-rise looks a little strange? Go for a mid-rise.
I am petite and also find that a 9 inch rise is like a high rise. I thought I was the only one who noticed this!!
I’m short and love wide leg trousers with a little bit of edge , like black sequins ( not shiny) waist. However , I have to wear them with booties.
This was so helpful. I struggle mightily to find jeans that work for me. I'm 5'9, thin, very short-waisted, and busty. Most jeans labeled "ankle" length or "cropped" just look like they are WAY too short. Why is the assumption that our legs are all the same length? Similarly, the super-high-waisted trend just cuts into my ribs and does zero to slenderize my mid-section. The concept of balance is key!
I love this in-depth analysis, thank you. I usually wear a straight leg, but you’ve got me wanting to try a wide leg or boyfriend (my big calves would probably appreciate it!).
I'm so glad you liked it Kelly! Yes definitely give them a try! There are lots of great cuts like that second hand:)
Always love your videos! Thanks for your style guidance its awesome! What are the pearl earring you are wearing? They are so adorable! :-)
Flairs are the old bell bottoms😍
I love wide-leg denim!
I'm so Happy wide leg and high rise is back. Even when I was 100 pounds I thought they looked awfull.
The only thing I would have liked you to add to this, is an overview of what can be done to fit heans. I know that you canctake them to a tailor - but depending on cut and rise, some are a better choice if they are to be fitted afterwards.
Some heans simply end up looking strange if tailored too much on the back because the pockets no longer fit; or on the sides because the front pockets get a wrong angle etc.
Even the best of tailors cant remove the darker shades that is typically hiding under the pockets at their seems and thus, certain fits just are'nt as good for certain types of tailoring. I learned that the hard way :/
ah that is such an interesting take and I will definitely keep this in mind for another one!
Thanks
Ciao Grazie per il grande video. . Can you do a video on maybe a few types of denim fit & create outfits around that especially focusing on footwear. You gave some really good examples of that in this video but to get your live fashion expertise with your wardrobe would be great. I would love to especially see how to style a boyfriend Jean chunky boots-How to balance with a top & or blazer.
I have a pair of pajama jeans with a drawstring tie and are so comfy. Btw, did you get a new plant? That palm is fabulous! This video was is very helpful. Thanks.
Great video! What style and or brand works best for a flat butt? I love jeans but have a hard time finding ones that make me look good from behind when wearing tops that don't completely cover back there.
I am not a denim person...occasionally a skirt but this was great information.
Beautiful video Alyssa! Can you make a video with different mode to use nek silk scarf please?
Yes! I think scarves will be my next deep dive! xx
Thanks! I really like the way you wear silk scarves. Very very stylish! 😍
Oh, and I want to be one of your first clients when you start doing personal styling again!!!
I really enjoyed this video Alyssa! Jeans are so versatile. I do not have chicken legs so I had a hard time finding the perfect straight jean. Many brands sell straight jeans that are narrower at the bottom. I always buy jeans with only 2% elastane. This way, they keep their shape and last longer.
Great point! I also look for denim with only a touch of stretch as I like the structure too!
@@AlyssaBeltempo I also wanted to add that another thing I love about your channel is that there are not a ton of commercials throughout the video. I unsubscribed from a lot of channels because of that. Some RUclipsrs put videos of less than 15 minutes and they add a commercial every 2-3 minutes. This is so annoying.
@@frenchstyle7038 that's how they get paid though sometimes. I find that RUclips has been doing the forced commercials alot , like the ones you can't skip? Das annoying!
Wonderful video! This was great inspiration and I loved all the photos! ❤️ Lisa
Excellent analysis of jean styles. I personally prefer wide leg, slim wide, or straight because I have thin legs. With wide leg jean's I can add some elegance to the outfit. I'm tired of skinny jeans and just don't like the flared leg look.
In another note, Alyssa looks way prettier with shorter hair and also keeping it a bit away from her face. She has a thin face so she does better keeping her hair at her new length. She also looks really good when she has her hair up.
Lovely! So lovely! And so sensitive to all of our differences. Oh jeans! Why can't you be easier to wear? 😎 And please DO sign up for Alyssa's newsletter! It's a joy to receive - very artistic, elegant, lots of helpful information, and she is an amazing writer too! Thank you Bella! Can you feel the spring in the air? I'm soaking in all the vitamin D I can! Big hugs! And Happy International Women's Day! 🥰😘
Thank you so much Natalya for the endorsement it means a lot coming from a master writer such as yourself! :) I'm so glad to hear you're enjoying the sun! Have a wonderful week! xx
