Are Boyfriend Jeans the New Trend? Hopefully Not!

gwen stefani boyfriend jeansGwen Stefani has always had a kick-ass sense of style. I think we can all agree on that.

But lately, ever since No Doubt as all-but-confirmed a full-blown reunion, Gwen has committed a mighty fashion crime that I hope does not catch on (which is exactly how I feel about the Cloggens).

The Boyfriend Jeans.

First defined by the girls at Go Fug Yourself, Boyfriend Jeans are five sizes larger than they should be, ratty, torn-up and unflattering. Maybe they’re supposed to be all “weathered” and trendy, but the difference between Distressed Jeans and Boyfriend Jeans is that these babies look like your man should be wearing them instead of you.

It seems that Gwen has not one, but two pairs of Boyfriend Jeans, or, in her case, Husband Jeans. And what goes better with your husband’s pants, then a shirt with his face on it? NOTHING!

We all get it, Gwen. Gavin is hot. Your baby is adorable. It’s soooo cute that you’re wearing Gavin’s pants, while holding your baby, while wearing Gavin’s face on your shirt, but please – you lost your pregnancy weight for a reason. Plus, are the Boyfriend Underwears necessary? Do the jeans have to be so ill-fitting that they have to peek out from the waist and get all bunchy? What’s up with that!?!

Show off that body so girls don’t copy this look, don’t sell Boyfriend Jeans at L.A.M.B and please don’t leave boyfriends across the country pantsless.

Hmmm….on second thought, maybe that wouldn’t be so bad….if they happen to look like Gavin, that is.

    The Fug Girls did not invent the term “boyfriend jeans.”

    I am pretty sure the “boyfriend sweater” and “jean” have been around at least since the ’90s.

    I think all of the people who hate on fashion trends all the time (even though I will tell you I religiously read your blogs) should chill out and have some fun for a freakin change. Trends are fun and different thats why everyone jumps on the bandwagon, I personally love boyfriend jeans as they look good on my body type and I know how to pull them off, not everyone can I’ll give you that. I mean really though, do you guys buy all of your clothes at The Gap or something?? How boring.
