GET A FIN HABIT LIKE KEIRA KNIGHTLEY AND KATE BOSWORTH

No good thing can be a secret for long -- VOGUE has marked FIN's 'Eco-Lux' ethical denims as the newest hottie on the block.

"...FIN denims are created from both Fairtrade and organic cotton exclusively and produced in India and Peru, where the industry supports workers facing the challenges of poor working conditions and wages. As if that weren't enough encouragement to indulge, the jeans are simply gorgeous to boot - spring/summer 2008 is all about subtle feminine touches inspired by "Fin heroine" Ameila Earhart."

As I've said before we're huge FIN fans at DeviDoll and delighted to welcome the Spring Summer 2008 collection online now.

JEANS SOPHISTICATE

I am something of a fan of Justine Picardie's 'The Closet Thinker' column in Sunday's Stella magazine. Real issues written about (solved) with intelligence and panache. This week she picked a universally 'pet' topic - the perfect jeans. She makes some (welcome) reflections on the need for more grown up looks -- tailored, dark and suited to specific body type. More importantly she hones in on some key requirements -- contoured waistbands (higher at the back), flattening (flattering) pocket-less fronts. Thank you Justine for focusing our minds.

We'd like to add 1 other key element to her list -- 'butt-enhancement'. And point you in the direction of Starr Dailey-Webb's AOKI jeans which she emphasizes have this effect (contoured waistbands come as standard).

Below a few of our favourites that we now view with renewed respect.

Wide leg, high waist Traci
or, skinny, mid-waist Mandy
And as we're on the topic, tummy-flattening and waist contoured can't be done better than by Undesigned's Kick Flare bamboo denim jean.
