Whether your curvy, petite or tomboy skinny jeans are seriously one of the hardest purchases. Any girl knows that you have to at least commit a day, maybe a whole weekend, to finding a pair that fits your butt, your inseam and rises high enough so you can bust them out in front of your grandma without causing her to turn crimson.

When I heard that Shopbop.com just launched a new video denim guide called “Denim 101” in collaboration with their denim vendors, I quietly squealed in delight. Hosted by Shopbop’s Style Director, Morgan Wendelborn, the new “Denim 101” video breaks denim down to its most basic elements and explains how paying attention to simple details like pocket placement, rise, inseam, wash, fabric and cut greatly reduces the dilemma of denim shopping. The video is simple, easy to follow and Morgan uses models for illustration. Before your next shopping excursion check out the video and take notes, trust me it will help.
