Another piece for my new magazine!..
Here
at elleven we simply cant live without our best friend; the little black jean
(LBJ); she comes in the long, tight, black, denim variety. You can go for high
waist, skinny, straight or cropped and she will still make your bum look pert
and your legs look fierce.
Teamed
with a classic white tee for a casual day off, just shove on your favorite pair
of kicks and your good to go. Feeling a bit spicy for a night out with the
girls? You could even go for the newer version... the coated LBJ - think
leather meets denim. Simply add a skinny heel, a chunky sparkly necklace and
voila, Sandy from Grease, maybe without the hair though.
Next
step is the DIY LBJ; slashing, yes all our own doing, make them this
seasons on trend accessory by simply shredding them with a pair of scissors or
a cheese grater. Just grab the knee and tear. These babies are any weather
attire, as long as you don’t make the rips too big, there’s nothing cuter than
little black jeans creeping out from underneath an oversized cocoon coat.
Kate
Moss is always seen rocking a pair with her dusty leather jacket, and our fave
lady new on the music scene, Ella Eyre is always seen sporting the black
skinnies with her cracking pair of pins.
Ridiculously
understated with never enough credit, make the LBJ
your dirty little secret.
