Since we last updated you on the Earnest Sewn Fashion Island Store Opening (which goes down today!) we have an exclusive on a limited edition jean style that will be released. But start your engines right now, because there will only be 50 pieces available, total. This “Golden Ticket” jean is called the “Newport,” and will be a sophisticated over dye black micro flare jean, the first of its style for Earnest Sewn. It will be the debut of Earnest Sewn’s “Golden Ticket” capsule collection that uses 24K gold buttons, rivets and a gold foil screen print. What more can a girl ask for? Seems like Benjamin Talley Smith is keeping things exciting. Get on it, West Coast!

Founded only two years ago, Cult of Individuality is a denim line which recognizes the cult status of jeans and has already produced a milieu of them for our consumption. And, like its namesake brand, they have cut, sewn, bleached and distressed jeans for that denim follower who desires individual style when the change of mood strike. For Spring 2011, Cult of Individuality produced an expanded collection of jeans which range from established denim silhouettes to new signature fits (the Alter Ego Boyfriend, the Ex-Lover BF, etc). Pictured: sneak previews of the Fall 2011-2012 collection. Spring 2011 collection photos follow after the jump.

Joe’s Jeans just announced their new denim silhouette: the Skinny Micro Flare, which is a fitted jean from hip to thigh, with a “slight 17-inch flare that starts just above the ankle.” The jeans are available in Black, Tanya, and Brigitte and retails for $172 – $179.


Creative Director & Founder Joe Dahan says, “While the 70s flare jean is a key trend this season, we wanted to also offer our girl who is still in love with her skinnies, a modernized version of the 70s flare.” Check out our full Q&A with him!
The Skinny Micro Flare is available now online at joesjeans.com and will drop in stores March 15.
