One of the best ways to transition to Fall is with denim. Jeans are the perfect base for sweaters and jackets. I've turned the dial for Fall and stepped up the style of my denim picks. When shopping, remember that darker denim looks dressier and more expensive. Cropped denim begs for ankle boots. Straight leg or flair are the shape of the season. Skinnies are still in, but taking a step back, unless it's the Veronica Beard Debbie (see below.) Long straight leg jeans can be beautifully dialed up with a heel...even a kitten heel. Today's post features denim that makes a statement. I promise that you don't have any of these pieces
in your closet.

Now this is how one dials it up! A sexy shirt, chic clutch, and a logo chain belt, all anchored by a black jean. You can find a similar Moschino belt on sale at Italist. See a fab collection of black denim at....

Need Supply
From the Ralph Lauren Collection and priced accordingly. This is my fave of the edit. Dare to be different. Think outside of the blues.
Ralph Lauren
Polished pearls and shimmering rhinestones really dial up the glam. With 2% spandex, these jeans will stretch without losing their shape. Love the white shirt paired with this pant, too.
Beyond Boston Proper
One of my favorites of the edit. They are fun, sexy, and just have so much style.
Intermix
Romance Was Born Sequin Fringe
Denim Jacket & Jeans
Dialed up and then some! What an outfit. Stunning as a set but each piece alone makes a style statement. Would you dare? I would love to wear these!

Bootcut Jean
The Queen of designers at HSN creates denim for those who thought they couldn't rock a jean any more. Besides being comfy and flattering in her virtual stretch denim, they are certainly on trend. People rave about the fit. Honestly, I haven't tried them. They come in every size from petite - plus tall, and they are less than $70.
The flounce adds a feminine feel to a classic denim jacket. The gold buttons elevate the look even more. The seaming in the back is really quite flattering.
Polished with a twist. Perfect for girls who aren't really the denim type. The Tweed Jacket is adorable dressed up as shown, but also could be worn with jeans and a tee. The Midi Skirt will become your "go to" all season long.
