I think this photo is from a 1990 Janet Jackson concert in Detroit, Michigan, but I’m not sure. I love this photo, because this outfit was essentially the Janet Jackson uniform from the Rhythm Nation concert (1989-90) with the black blouse, the skin-tight, black denim jeans, and black leather high boots, as well as the long beautiful black hair. And she looked so sexy on stage dancing in that outfit.

Janet Jackson should be known for her great talents as a performer, as a singer and dancer and even a songwriter, but also one of the sexiest and best looking performers not only of our generation, but also ever. A woman who combines, beautiful baby-face looks and with a great tight sexy body to go with it and never afraid to show it or show it off when she’s performing.

Janet Jackson has a keen intelligence, who knows the world around her and what’s important and what she thinks about it and what she believes needs to be said that perhaps isn’t said enough, overlooked perhaps, or communicated in a way where the most people possible can hear and understand it. This is what Janet Jackson is about and why she’s gone as far as she has to the point I believe her music and act, has topped her brother Michael.

Janet’s been involved in producing her own music because she knows better than anyone what she’s trying to communicate. When I think of Janet Jackson and her music, I think of songs like Black Cat which is a great classic rock song, she performs this song as well as any classic rocker, even though she’s basically a R&B Singer and a great one. Janet has always had great versatility with her ability to combine two great sounds into one song like Black Cat.

Another song from JJ would be Love Will Never Do, again the same Rhythm Nation album. Twenty years later still her best album another very sexy video shot on a beach, the actual song Rhythm Nation where she sings about we are all members of the same world basically. So lets us make the most of it.

Janet Jackson combine both physical beauty, sex appeal, intelligence, talent all into one package and can communicate all of these abilities as a singer, dancer and commentator on world events as well as can be done right now and one of the best ever.  Janet Jackson is the best spokesperson as far as how are generation looks at the world.

Mary Queen of Shops: ‘Designer Jeans Advice From Mary Portas’

“Mary Portas takes Diana, the owner of fashion store 117, to find a high end designer jeans market for her shop. A great pair of jeans is the staple of any fashionable womans wardrobe.”

From Mary Queen of Shops 

I found this photo on Flickr or Photobucket. It’s not directly related to the Mary Portas video, except for the designer jeans. It also adds the jeans in boots look that’s been with us for the last 5-6 years with so many sexy women in and out of America tucking their skin-tight or skinny jeans into their long boots. And the jeans over boots looks is still with us and very popular as well where women now are wearing their skinny jeans over their boots even to work not and when they out to dinner and dress up their denim that way.

Source:The Daily Journal– jeans in boots, the classic women’s fashion look that hopefully never goes away. As well as tight jeans over boots which is another sexy, fashionable classic for American women.

This photo is also not directly related to Mary Portas’s video about designer jeans. But you do see a beautiful, sexy woman, with great curves, in her 21st Century designer denim jeans, that’s she’s wearing in her black, leather boots. Which is a look that came back in 2005-06 and has been around with us ever since. Designer jeans or skinny jeans aren’t designed for skinny girls or women, but for women with meat on their bones who like to show off their legs and butts. As you see with this woman on the left.

The jeans denim explosion especially since the late 1990s and which went even further in the last decade and has probably gotten even bigger in the first two years of this decade especially with skinny denim and leather jeans for women. And with skinny jeans for women that have been around since 2005 or 06 which as guy I gotta admit I think it’s great checking out sexy women who love their tight jeans. Especially checking out sexy female celebrity’s in their tight jeans. And now that even tight jeans have become such a versatile pant for women, no longer considered just a casual pant. It has completely changed how sexy women dress in and out of work.

With women now wearing skinny jeans to the office, not just on Casual Friday, as well as out on the weekend and at night. And wearing them in all-weather not just in the fall or winter. But during hot humid summers, like in the Mid-West, Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. Wearing tight jeans not just with t-shirts and tank tops, but with sweaters, blouses, suit jackets it’s become very important for women to make sure that when they are out in tight jeans or shopping for tight jeans, that they are wearing the tight jeans and buying the tight jeans that show off their bodies as best as possible.

That they don’t wear tight jeans that make them look fat, skinny or look like hookers. Like with the famous ass crack jeans of 2001-02. Where if a woman sat down or bended over, she was at risk of revealing her ass crack and perhaps seeing it on TV or the internet or both. Especially with the camcorder revolution and people being able to record video on their cell phones. Low-rise jeans, skinny jeans good. Ass crack jeans bad, women should find the balance that makes them look sexy in them. And shows off their figures but doesn’t make them look like prostitutes looking for a man to pay their bills.

Perhaps this video can help women find that right balance. Also for me anyway, not a fan of trouser jeans, they might be stylish for a women and make them feel like they can wear jeans to work and still look dressy or professional. But the office far as I’m concern might be the only good place for them. I’m not going to get the feeling to check out a woman, I don’t care how sexy she is physically, just because she’s wearing trouser jeans. I would get the same satisfaction checking out a woman wearing baggy sweatpants or slacks.

Denim to me on women anyway, like leather are meant to be tight. One reason why there are both denim jeans and leather jeans and a lot of women and men shopping for both denim and leather jeans that are the tightest possible without sucking the blood from their legs so they can no longer walk. Sort of like that Seinfeld episode (sorry I watched the show a lot) where Kramer was wearing designer jeans from like 1982 or something that were so tight that he literally couldn’t move his legs in them.

So low-rise and skinny jeans great, jeans with boots, whether they are under or over the jeans are great. The tight dark wash designer jeans explosion for women in the late 1970s, the greatest advancement in style for women I believe ever. As far as Sex Appeal goes but women should where the jeans that are best for their body and don’t buy jeans that are for another body. That just causes problems.
