My Obsession with denim

For as long as I can remember I have loved denim; From donning little Oshkosh dungarees as a wee toddler, to making sure that six out of seven days I wear denim. It is my uniform - in various different presentations


Here's why:


Denim is sexy as f*ck on a girl or guy. A great pair of jeans hugs your body in all the right places. Nothing better then a nice bum in a sexy pair of jeans! 


For me a pair of jeans teamed up with a killer pair of heels and sexy top will have you feeling invincible in the same way they will with a little white tank and Converse.


It is INCREDIBLY hard for a pair of jeans to look bad on anyone - provided that they actually fit and you're not exploding at the seams or look like you've lost 200kgs in two days. 


It's so goddamn versatile and is believed to have started out as the ultimate workwear fabric for overalls for its durability. You can dress it up, dress it down, work in it or party in it. It's an all rounder.


All the cool peeps wear denim...Elvis wore denim. James Dean did too.
Okay...so does everyone else but that's the beauty of it! Everyone wears denim jeans! 


It gets better over time
Having just turned old(er) I can appreciate the fact that with a bit of wear and tear makes any pair of jeans (or any other denim garment for that matter) look cooler over time. 


A couple of weeks ago I attended the Wrangler South Africa launch at the Turbine Hall in Jozi's Newtown Precinct and got school in some denim trivia and got to feast my eyes on some tasty denim delights. 




Truthfully, the event refuelled my denim obsession and made me search Pinterest for denimy awesomeness. You can follow my 'I heart denim' board which is currently a work in progress. 


Keep rocking those jeans like only you can.
