Don’t Be Intimidated By A Wide-Leg

Jean styles are always changing. This year, we heard all about the skinny jeans and middle parts and about the rise of the mom jean. I will do another post later styling skinny jeans but rest assured they will never be out. No style of jeans ever is, because you should always wear what makes you feel good and if that is a skinny, then embrace it.

One of my friends and a professional stylist, Ali Helmuth, has never personally worn skinny jeans. They just weren’t her thing. For years, I have seen her wearing wide-leg jeans, and she always looked amazing. When we unpacked the latest pair of wide-leg jeans from Rag & Bone, I knew I needed to call in a favor to Ali and see if she was willing to help us out. Even four months pregnant, she came in and worked her magic. So, if you have been afraid to try something new, this is the season to do it. There are sculpted, wide, boot, high-rise, low-rise, straight leg, and of course, skinny. I must say, as a buyer, making sure we have the right assortment of denim is my most difficult task.

I hope you will come see our newest selection of denim. We have great new styles from Rag & Bone, Mother, L’agance, TIBI, and Veronica Beard, Citizens, and Agolde. Keep reading Alexandria Stylebook to see more on how to style different styles of denim.

I spent the first part of my career as a copy-writer who helped elected officials brag about their support for entrepreneurs. Then I decided to get off the printed page and do it myself. The Shoe Hive made a splash on the fashion scene in Washington, and was named the region’s best shoe store in its first year. Fourteen years later, I have tripled the store’s size and also opened a sister store, The Hive.  At The Hive, we offer clothing lines that are sophisticated and approachable like Rag & Bone, Tibi, Raquel Allegra, Ulla Johnson and Veronica Beard. We have tried to fill our racks with clothing you will want to wear all the time, elevated basics that are worth the investment.
