Denim: Rock & Republic Cut: Berlin Skinny Leg Size:27

How does the denim fit in the waist, crotch, butt and thighs?

I love how this denim fits through the entire leg, thigh and booty area. It is very form fitting but only in the best way possible. However, my number one favorite part of the fit for this denim is in the waist area. Let me preface this by saying that I am all about following trends, but I am sort of “over” the whole super, super low-rise thing. That said, I’m totally loving how this cut has a higher rise. Regardless of how thin you are, I think it is so much more flattering to wear a higher rise waist with form fitting tops and tunics-no muffin top action to worry about! I also adore the longer skinny leg inseam-a perfect fit for a super high heel!

Where have you worn you new ROCK & REPUBLIC’s to?

After trying on this denim, I knew instantly that they’d be must wear to a few holiday parties this season. Because of the dark black wash, they can easily be dressed up or down according to the event. That said, I chose to pair them with my favorite new platform cut-out shoes, a dressy shirt and a boyfriend blazer. I felt confident, comfortable, and sexy (all of my stylish girl friends were inquiring about the new denim). They are the perfect mixture of rocknroll and class…just like the girl I think we all secretly want to be!

How would you style this denim ?

I’ve already styled this denim a few different ways. The fit and color on this denim screams sexy, so the obvious styling choice would reflect that. But, I also wore this denim with a cashmere sweater and riding boots. It was definitely a casual look, but the quality of the denim itself allowed the look to maintain an upscale appeal at the same time.

Describe your experience in letting The Denim Guy fit you?

I absolutely love that the Denim Guy chose this particular pair of denim for me. Of course I was already familiar with Rock & Republic as a brand, but I’d not previously purchased any of their denim. Based on my own personal style, I don’t think many stylists would’ve paired me with RR, but I am so incredibly glad that The Denim Guy pushed my fashion limits and styled me in this vamped-up fit. Having an outsiders opinion is so important when buying denim, otherwise it’s so easy to continually buy the same brands, fits, styles, etc, when in actuality there is so much more out there that all of should be tapping into. I was VERY happily surprised in this styling choice because it forced me to go beyond what I’d normally think of trying on, and I am thrilled with the outcome. I could wear these jeans to work, a red carpet event, out for drinks with my girlfriends, and honestly I could even wear these jeans to church…who would imagined Rock & Republic in the same sentence as church? Well, there you go- I said it and I’m totally doing it!

Did you get picked up on in your new denim? Give us the inside scoop

The denim did garner what I guess could be referred to as a “pick-up” although I can’t exactly say it was successful…unless of course you’re into the over 50-year-old biker crowd…nonetheless, a compliment is compliment, right? I plan to continue this experiment and my extensive research in the near future though.

Who did your new jeans make you want to channel?

This denim made me feel like I was channeling a combo of Megan Fox and Sophia Loren-a mixture of blatantly obvious sex appeal with timeless (yet still sexy) class. Uh, hello, the brand is called Rock & Republic for a reason that I now completely understand.
