Let me start by saying I used to hate wearing denim, and it’s not even that i hated it but as a skinny girl with not much cake, i always felt that jeans made me look like a long square box 📦

I tried it all, from $10 jeggings to $200, 7 for all mankind…Denim was NOT my friend.

It was only until I worked at a job that required me to wear denim every single day, that I then learned what good denim was and how to make it work for my slim shape…so without further ado, here is my list…

The Non-Negotiable’s Of Denim:

1. NO lower-back gapping! You know what I’m talking about, when your denim takes the long trip away from your waist… No sis. It does not fit.

2. High waters are a no no. I know this was totally on trend for a bit but this looks crazy and like you shrunk your jeans in the wash. If you want a pair of capris, wear capris!

3. Under butt holes, rips and tears. This is totally a personal thing, if you have a fantastic butt…please ignore this one
