Same look, different day

Eva Longoria-Parker at the opening of the new Gap 1969 jeans shop in West Hollywood. Her clothes came from the chain's upcoming collection, similar colors to what she had on earlier this week



Love her look

Eva Longoria-Parker looking lovely in a cream sweater, wheat scarf, skinny jeans, beige pumps and of course a Birkin, I love that colour. She is so cute and casual. She was spotted outside her restuarant Beso in West Hollywood.

How to wear Jeans to work

Happy Monday....can I just say that I would rather have it freezing cold than wet & cold anyday! There goes my Monday rant...lol

Doing my daily read on Instyle.com and I came across this lovely article, had to share it with you guys. If unlike me, you are allowed Casual Fridays, well and any other day you can get away with coming into work casual, then you might love this just as much as we do ( I left most of the article the way they have it on their site, it is too good to amend). So here goes...

Get a Boyfriend Blazer
For a classic look, try upgrading a sleek pair of jeans with a structured blazer, like Sarah Jessica Parker in a black velvet number & dark denim or a bright white tuxedo design and lighter/acid-washed pair, like Gywenth Paltrow's. Think suit and match light colors with light and dark with dark.















Embrace Sequins

A bit of shimmer is an instant outfit upgrade. If you are a risk-taker (and your office is fashion-forward), try a bolder sequined piece, like Rachel Bilson's eye-popping blazer. For a more understated look, try a shimmery tank under a cropped jacket a la Rihanna.














Throw On a Cardigan

Embellished sweaters lend retro charm to a pair of jeans. Look for crafty details that will dress up denim, like Penelope Cruz's frilly ruffles or Heidi Klum's beading.



















Buy a Silk Blouse

A sweet silk blouse give your jeans a feminine feel - look for tops with pretty patterns or intricate necklines. If your workplace is more formal, skip distressed denim (like Eva Longoria-Parker bootcuts) in favor of crisp pair of dark-wash jeans such as Katherine Heigi's skinnies.














Try a Little Leather Jacket 


A cropped leather jacket gives a jeans-and-a-T-shirt look a luxurious spin. Just skip the heavy motorcycle jackets in favor of light, soft skins in classic colors, like gray (Nicole Kidman) or brown (Malin Akerman) or black. Add a feminine touch with accessories like a great pair of heels and a fun bag.















Look For a Chic Button-Down

A crisp button-down shirt  is a no-fall piece for the office. For a streamlined appearance, tuck a light-hued blouse into matching skinny jeans like Kate Moss's and take it to the next level with chic heels and a status bag. Or, if your workplace is more laid-back, try a patterned version, like Sienna Miller's and add boots and a bright satchel.

Stars' Favorite Denim Trends

Came across this article on Instyle and here at 151th we feel it is fun knowing denim trends of stars, especially the style icons among them, so decided to share. Hope you enjoy it like we did.

Boyfriend Jeans
Talk about stylish comfortable clothes. Slouchy boyfriend jeans with heels and bold accessories for a style statement like Gwen Stefani or comfy like Reese Witherspoon with a tee and sneakers. The trick is to roll the bottoms several times for a cropped length that flatters the baggier style.

Skinny Jeans
Stovepipe jeans have become a closet classic thanks to versatility - I actually remember when these were not cool! This is one sexy style that works with, well, erm, everything in your closet (honestly, I feel so sexy in Skinnies). Wear them during the day like Racheal Bilson or for a night out like Vanessa Hudgens.

Trouser Jeans
They are the perfect combination of comfort and polish, the wider the cut makes your legs look miles long! Can be worn with a bright top and blazer like Kelly Ripa or for an edgier look, with a leather jacket and bold belt like Lauren Conrad.

High-Waist Jeans
One of my personal favorite. It adds instant curves and a higher waistline and most importantly, length to your legs - with a tucked in top and statement/bold belt. Jessica Alba and Emmy Rossum.

Distressed Jeans
This season's ultimate must-have. The key is to tailor the amount of shredding to suit your taste/personality: can be all-out edgy like Rihanna or kept simple and sophisticated like Heidi Klum.
White Jeans
One of the freshest denim trend right now is crisp white jeans. Can be worn in the summer with a floral top like Kate Bosworth or with a leather jacket and scarf for those chilly days, like Beyonce.

Boot-Cut Jeans
Eva Longoria-Parker and Penelope Cruz love the always stylish, classic boot-cut jean. The flattering cut works on all body types.
