Clothing label Babakul picked models that remind us of Jane Birkin and her It Girl daughter, Lou Doillon, for their Spring-Summer 2012 range of Hippie jeans, and we do mean 70s fashion redux. After all, Babakul is a French translation for “hippie.” This consistent collection of classic denim silhouettes—featuring flared wide leg jeans in high waists, soft denim shorts and a flirty denim dress—are sure to be great music festival fashion staples. We suddenly wanted to put on some Serge Gainsbourg and fiddle around with an acoustic guitar (even if we can’t play one). Babakul is simply killing us with their tranquil, laid-back styling, a product of the Los Angeles-based company founded by denim industry veterans who have together founded True Religion and Taverniti jeans.

When we had the opportunity to meet with Black Orchid Denim designer, Julien Jarmoune, he gave us the exclusive inside scoop that holiday and spring will be filled with color. Now we have proof, because one of his biggest celeb fans, Shenae Grimes was seen at the Just Dance 3 launch party in Los Angeles sporting Black Orchid jeans in bright red. The 90210 star paired her Black Jewel Jeggings in Cranberry wash with a concert tee and a leather jacket for an edgy, rocker look. Soon after, she was spotted in denim on denim wearing the Henry & Belle Ideal Super Skinny in Onyx wash. She completed this look with an acid wash jean jacket. Finally, she got snapped in JET Hippie Skinny Jeans. Rock N Roll, Old School, or Vintage Chic… which of this denim-loving starlet’s looks is your favorite?
