Different celebrities have been seen sporting the genetic denim skinny jeans, which are a huge hit on the fashion market.  In April this year, Cameron Diaz was spotted wearing some distressed skinny jeans.  Other celebrities are seen wearing these super comfortable jeans as well.  One really nice feature is that they can be worn both casually in the day or in a more dressed up look for night time transitions, depending on the top and shoes you wear.  Accessories make a big difference too.  

Skinny jeans made from Christophe Decarnin were featured at the Paris, Spring 2009 Runway.  These jeans are bleached, ripped and acid washed, reminiscent of the 1980’s.  A lot of models are wearing the high heels and box or square shoulders jackets to complete the outfit look.  

Some of the most flattering effects of the genetic denim skinny jeans is that they hug all the curves of your body.  Skinny jeans are designed to be form fitting, made with stretchy material and they hug your ankles.  To create a flattering and balanced look, you want to compliment the skinny jeans with a fuller top like a tunic, short dress or something really drapey.  Using accessories will help a lot too.

So, can the-not-so sexy make use of this runway addition? Fashion experts say that most women can, provided that they follow the following techniques. These tips can help women in using and making the most of the slimming effect provided by skinny jeans.

? If you are not very skimpy and slender but you definitely want to make use of the virtually “slimming” effect provided by the use of skinny jeans, then consider those pairs with dark colors. For the best slimming effect possible, you ought to use those which come in dark blue or black wash. This is definitely suitable for women who have huge waistlines or thighs since dark color skinny jeans can conceal the excesses.

? If you plan to wear skinny jeans just for the sake of getting that slimming effect on your legs and upper body, use other types of jeans instead of the skin-tight jeans. You can choose from a wide variety of choices – from the super skinny ones to the straight leg cuts. These types will have leg openings that will vary from 10 inches to 14. Choose that which you are best comfortable with. Do not forget that comfort should not be thoroughly compromised for the sake of fashion. You can be fashionable but comfortable with your look at the same time.

? When wearing a pair of skinny jeans, make sure that your top outfit perfectly fits the slimming effects that the jeans provide. The volume of the upper body part should be emphasized but not to an excessive extent. If you are petite, consider wearing bell-sleeve tops, tunics and those which have dolman sleeves. However, if you have floppy and wide shoulders, consider a top that will conceal the “overload”.

? Bear in mind that wearing skinny jeans is not enough to conceal heavy thighs. Bulges will likely appear and such can look very unappealing. To disguise such, you can opt to wear long tops. Long tunics are often recommended by stylists. However, long tops should always be paired with elegant belts. The thickness of the belt largely depends on the torso length and the overall height of the person.

? Another common problem with skinny jeans is the apparent emphasis given on thick calves. If you have heavy thighs, you likely have chunky calves as well. If such is the case, then you can try to conceal these features by tucking the jeans into tall boots. The use of boots will hide the bulk and provide an extensive slimming effect that extends to your calves.

? If you are not that tall, or if you are a bit chubby, then consider wearing high heeled shoes or sandals with your skinny jeans. This will not only enhance the slimming effect. Rather, such will also provide a leg-lengthening effect. In case high-heeled shoes do not fit the occasion, one can also try pointy-toed but flat ones.
