If we learned one thing at the spring 2013 previews this season, it’s that colored denim is living on as a leading trend in denim. Gap went above and beyond by offering an entire rainbow spectrum of colors, from an adventures yellow to a more casual cyan blue. Also on the menu, broken-in khakis in pastel versions of their denim counterparts, printed blazers, and dark “lived-in wash” jeans. Basically, everything you need to add some prep to your spring look.
What are your favorite picks? Let us know on facebook!

Let’s face it: men also need options when it comes to jeans. While we agree that not every man should wear skinny jeans, some men can really rock a pair. And, for the slimmer men out there, a pair of skinnies are the only ones that will fit properly on their bodies. So, without further adieu, we rounded up nine pairs of skinny jeans that caught our eyes, both for the washes and treatments, and for the potential to flatter the various shapes of the male form. You’ll be surprised how good you look in them. Whether you’re a musician or a college professor, we think you’ll find a wearable pair of jeans to wear this season.

One of the hottest and most wearable trend of the season is definitely the western-meets-bohemian look. So far we’ve shown you hot to rock it with bold prints and scantly denim shorts shorts, but now that it’s getting a bit more chilly we figure you might want to add a layer or two. We love this girls take on this trend, so we broke it down for you for some food for thought. Her double denim look gets a cozy revamp with a oversized chunky knit sweater thrown over. An on-trend floppy hat, worn in suede booties, and gold accessories add the perfect western flare without going overboard.

One look at the Gap Spring 2012 collection proves that colored denim is here to stay! Though it may just be the start of fall, you can look forward to warmer weather full of pastel colored skinny jeans and a line that can be summed up in three words: fresh, casual comfort. The knits are soft, the tops are oversized, and the pants have a relaxed fit to them that will make you want to wear them even after a long day out. For an ultra-laid back look, go for the patchwork jeans in a cropped boyfriend cut. We’re all over patchwork as an alternative to the every-day jean, and they style perfectly with everything from sleek tops to oversized cardigans. And you know we’re all about versatility!
