INDi Interviews: Cheetah is the New Black

One of our fave jeans wearing bloggers, Alicia Lund of Cheetah is the New Black, was sweet enough to offer some fun styling and denim advice. From skinny to wide leg, this blogger rocks it all fashionably, so read on to check out her insights below:

1. How would you describe your style and where do you look for inspiration?

My style is constantly evolving but it’s a mix of feminine and edgier pieces. I read a lot of blogs and magazines and am most inspired when I’m in New York City.

2. On your blog you wear your jeans for all sorts of occasions, but what’s your favorite way to style them?

Boyfriend jeans are my favorite, they’re just so comfortable! I love to dress my most distressed pair up with heels and a blazer or pair them with a feminine blouse for juxtaposition.

3. Any tips on what to look for first when denim shopping (fit, style, color, etc) and why?

When it comes to jean shopping you really just have to try them on. I know what denim brands and styles look best on me so I typically stick to those and experiment with various colors / patterns as the seasons change. Figure out what style is most flattering on you and buy it in two colors (ie: bell bottoms in a dark and lighter wash or skinny jeans in dark and a color etc.).

4. Now just for fun - which is worse: being over or underdressed, and why?

Neither, I’m all for wearing what makes you feel most comfortable. There are certain events and occasions that I know I should definitely sway on the overdressed side but sometimes I just want to wear denim even if I know all of my girlfriends will be in dresses (I’ll just be sure to dress them up with heels!).
