5 MUST HAVE JEANS THIS SEASON

TROUSER JEANS

Forget five-pocket styles: these full-leg trouser jeans are chic enough for dressier events (especially in dark wash.) This a definite trend to try for 2011.

FLARE JEANS
Flares are super flattering on most body types. For curvier girls, the flares balance out fuller hips and thighs. Wear flares with heels for the hottest (and most flattering) look.

JEGGINGS
If you haven't bought into the denim legging or jegging trend because you thought it was too Skin tight, dare to bring out the Kim Kardashian in you this season and keep your finger on the fashion pulse for a sexier you.

DENIM TROUSER SHORTS
Ready to really liven up your 2011 fashion look? Try a pair of dressy jean shorts. Some have trouser styling and pleats to give you a buttoned-down look.

GRAY JEANS
Ready for a nice departure from the usual dark or light washes? Gray jeans are trendy, but still go with all the same things that normal blue jeans do. Try out the skinny fit for an updated look.
