The forebears of today’s acid wash jeans first showed up in the nineties. The waistband of these jeans was somewhere north of your navel, and had pleats at the hips. The denim was quite thick, but the variegation of blue that made up the color of the jeans was quite beautiful and unique.
Today’s version of the acid wash jean do their ancestors proud. Color has been added and jeans come in a rainbow of intense, jewel like colors. Jade green, deep purple, claret and crimson; these are some of the hues being offered the discerning jeans buyer.
One of the most wonderful things about these stylish jeans are what they do to our bodies! The way the color lays against us, the way the colors move as we move; we look more scintillating, more earthy. Color can accent and color can camouflage; a queen-size gal might balk at wearing a vivid mono-color, but when it is an acid wash color with all its variations, she can wear it with style!
These attractive pants are also a wardrobe workhorse. They go anywhere and everywhere. Pair it with a t-shirt, and you have the perfect casual look for parties, concerts, picnics, movies, and more. For a more formal occasion, wear your gold earrings, get out your silk shirt with the bow at the neck, put on boots or high heels, and you’re on your way out the door in no time.
You don’t have to baby jeans either. Throw them in the washer, dryer, and go! You can spend the morning gardening in them, spend the afternoon at the park with the kids, wash and dry them, and wear them out for the evening. That’s not only a workhorse for your wardrobe, that’s a workhorse for your wallet!
When you are shopping for a good pair of these jeans, look for strong denim material and stitching. The acid wash can weaken inferior material, so make sure that your jeans were made to last. Look for intense, pretty shades that will go with other pieces of your wardrobe.
Now that acid wash jeans are back, you can enjoy a fashion blast from the past; or, if you’re younger, a new experience in the classic history of jeans.
