Here's to a denim-filled fall!
Cropped flare
This season is all about exposing just the right amount of ankle. Cropped flare jeans let you show off your fabulous shoes with ease. Go for a high-waisted pair and tuck in your shirt for a figure-flattering look. Then just throw on a structured jacket and head out the door!
Pro tip: If you're wearing ankle boots, make sure the hem hits at or below the top of the boots.

Black denim
As Vazquez says, "If Coco Chanel made the LBD a universal staple in womenswear, then black jeans can be considered the contemporary equivalent in menswear." Theis look first became trendy back in the days of Elvis with "Jailhouse Rock." These timeless jeans are simply a closet must-have!
Pro tip: Keep your black jeans in constant rotation since they can match just about anything in your closet.
