Of course, these aren’t actually boy’s jeans…. they’re women’s jeans cut to look like guys jeans fitted to a woman’s body. They’re cute for fall and work well with wedges or sandals.

Shredded and ripped jeans are also getting trendy these days. Ripped up jeans were a major denim trend for fall 2008, and they’re still hot for fall 2009.

Keep the rest of the colors basic – blacks, whites and neutrals are your friends.

This season’s black and grey jeans are part of the whole 80’s resurgence that’s going on in fashion right now. Black skinny jeans are a slimming option that work with almost everything, while grey is a little bit trendier and trickier to pull off. If you’re going for an investment, black skinny jeans are your best option. Grey jeans are cute but will probably be out of style by next fall – not exactly worth spending tons of money on.
