Tears Of Bleu is a new denim brand on the scene in the states (originally from Japan, conceptualized via classic British tailoring techniques) that isn’t afraid to show their colors. Their fall 2012 line features electric colors like magenta, neon orange, and cyan. The unique acid wash over-dye creates a slimming, sexy effect. Picture these jeans with oversized knit tops for a casual autumn stoll, and sharp tailored blazers when you want to make an entrance.
Scroll for more of the spectrum!
We’re loving this brand. Stay tuned for our review of the magenta acid wash skinnies.

Blogs are great and all, but there is nothing like leafing through the pages of your favorite magazine, fresh off the press. From NYLON Japan to Dazed & Confused Korea, there’s a whole world of gorgeous editorial coverage going on that we aren’t served up on street side newsstands. We know we’re not alone when we over-spend on an international subscription or scoop up seasons worth of discounted mags from Around The World, and nothing tickles us pink blue like seeing denim on magazine covers. To drive the point home, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite denim-clad mags from East to West, North to South.
