New Jeans for the Season

Following on from "skinny leg" and "boyfriend" jeans, Stretch High Rise (pictured) is due to feature prominently.

Personally, I love this look. Teamed with wedge-style platforms, a fitted T-shirt and cropped cardie. It's oh so feminine and sure to be a seasonal "must have"!

If you like going very fashionable each season with the latest jeans, you may find it makes sense to buy a cheaper pair than you are used to. If however, you prefer to stick to a very classical cut (like straight or bootleg) and are happy to wear them for a few years throughout all seasons, then investing in a more expensive pair would be feasible.

Unless you're going for an individual designer, I think Just Jeans is a great one-stop-shop for denim.

Jeans West are currently on sale with all jeans $59.99. They offer more variety for a range of ages, especially for 18-35 year olds.

If you're looking for more budget options;

Target offer great styles in their Hot Options and Free Fusion
ranges at good prices, including their own take on the high waist/wide leg (above), which is due in-store on 13 August.

K-Mart's Girl Xpress and True Blues range is also worth taking a look at.

Jay Jays offer budget priced options with the styles and cuts suited for teenagers best.

The bottom line is that jeans are no longer a stable classic, the styles swing wildly from one season to another, so choosing a high fashion look can no longer be regarded as a true investment piece for the budget fashion lover.
