Diesel Denim, part 2.....

This is the last 2 pairs of jeans available in the new Diesel 'Fit Your Attitude' collection launching now nationwide. (See last blog post for more details)

HIGHKEE (0886Z)...

I love these high waisted jeans that are slightly cropped at the ankle so have worn a cropped floral jacket to show this off and thrown a fur coat over the top for a retro glam finish

GRUPEE (wash 881K)...


I have given this pair a sporty twist on tailoring as I love the dark wash it makes the jeans appear smarter and perfect to style with a crisp white shirt and loose silk blazer the high top trainers stop this look being to formal

Diesel Denim.....

Diesel have been developing and researching their best jeans yet under the umbrella name 'Fit Your Attitude'. They have designed 6 pairs of jeans (myguy, grupee, highkee, bootzee, flairlegg and getlegg) that are going to become their only 6 styles that they will sell in any shop nationwide from now on. Each have been meticulously designed to make sure that everyone will find their favourite style/ styles and then over the seasons they will launch alternative colour palettes. Basically once you find what you love all you need to do is keeping adding to the colours! The attention to detail is very noticeable too even down to the leather tabs on the back where the diamonte embellishments have been replaced with stylish neutral coloured leather. Its all very chic and wearable without a huge price tag. I have been lucky enough to road test all six styles and I have definitely found my favourite and will certainly will be buying the newest colour way each season.

See how I have styled each pair today and the next installment on Wednesday 8th February...go and find your perfect pair too...!

MYGUY (wash 088P)...

The pyjama trend is everywhere but if you are not into an all over look take the blouse and match it with boyfriend jeans and simple stiletto's

FLAIRLEGG (wash 0886L)...

I have been waiting for the perfect wide leg jean with a rock n roll edge I love the frayed edge and have worn this look with a structured shirt for an alternative to the boho look why not try yellow to brighten the outfit

BOOTZEE (wash 885L)...

I have balanced these straight leg jeans with flats and given the look a fifties twist with a cropped jacket over a printed blouse which is tucked in to show off the higher waistband

GETLEGG (884X)...

If I were to have one of the six pairs these would be the ones! I have found jeans that are the perfect balance between skinny and boyfriend. They are great mainly with heels but have worn them with my high tops just make sure they are not too loose on you as this will look unsexy. The wash is perfect as they feel like I have had them for years so complement most types of clothing. I think the pastel trend works really well with this wash and have teamed the look with suede pastel heels picking out a colour from the jacket

Florals.....

TIP...tropical florals are great as a whole look and I love that this print comes as a trouser suit for a mod touch wear with flats and a great pair of sunglasses have fun with the print

TIP...a white shirt gives this look a relaxed modern feel to a floral printed mini skirt and pick out a colour from the skirt for an oversized jacket; its a key style for this spring make sure you go for bold floral colours for a strong summer look!

jacket, shirt and boots my own

TIP...I am loving the ditsy floral print (very 90's) and have added bright coloured boots to toughen it up as they can be slightly girly for a rock n roll look I have also added the denim waistcoat clashing the floral prints but the white blouse softens the whole look again

Print.....

TIP...if you wear the same print why not try it in clashing colours I have added white boots to this 50's inspired look to give this a stronger impact and make it less girly but keep accessories to a minimum

TIP...go for print with a sleevless waistcoat great over t-shirts and loose jumpers and keep it cool with coloured jeans and simple stilettos in a strong bold colour

New Season.....

TIP...the easiest (and cost effective) way to head into the new season is with a pair of printed jeans, they will update and old jumper or coat wear with heels and for the rock chic in you try a biker jacket but in metallic
