Despite the connotations behind the name, harem style jeans are very modest. They're basically wide-leg jeans, similar to flare-leg jeans, but they're wide everywhere. And they're in style. And cute, if I do say so myself. Check out the picture to your right of Gwen Stefani wearing a pair of harem jeans. Styles don't only range in jeans... also coming in cargo, khaki, and various colors. You can also wear them tapering at the ankle, which gives a more feminine look, in my opinion, but doesn't make them less modest. Buy this pair of wide-leg, harem-style jeans for only $19.99!
High Waist Jeans
I never thought I'd see the day, but high rise jeans are actually in style! Some might even say, the higher the better. I'm personally not a huge fan of the style, but several of my friends are, so I'm going to promote the look. I think it can be cute if you're careful to wear it stylishly. If you are larger in the booty area, it's probably not a good idea to wear high rise jeans, because they'll make your rear end look bigger, but they can make your waist look thinner. Be sure to tuck in your shirt. What I like about high rise jeans is that they aren't low rise, meaning that people aren't going to see your underwear, stomach, or crack when you bend down. What a relief that is! Here is an example of a pair of high waist jeans that you can purchase online. They're $39.99.
Boyfriend-Style Jeans
In case you haven't heard of this term before, boyfriend jeans are basically jeans that are rolled up on the ends. Originally, I suppose they're meant to look like they're a girl's boyfriend's jeans. Check out Jessica Alba wearing a pair of boyfriend-style jeans. The good thing about these is the fact that they're supposed to be loose and not clingy to your legs, thighs, and rear ends. Just be careful not to choose a pair of boyfriend-style jeans that take away your natural feminine figure completely. You want to look figure-flattering. I adore this pair of Lucky boyfriend-style jeans. Too bad they're a little pricy at $119.
