Hurray for Stiruppz!

The first time I picked up on the jeans tucked into boots was four years ago when I was living in Spain. At first I thought it was way too Euro and would never catch on in the states. Clearly I was wrong. Every fashionista adores tucking their skinny jeans into her boots.
While this trend is adorable, it can also be annoying. Every time I sit down, stand up, or walk too fast my jeans pop out of my boots. I have to bend over and tuck them back in.
I recently discovered the perfect cure to this major fashion crisis … Stiruppz! Stirrpuz were created to keep your jeans nicely tucked into your boots, right where they belong. They easily clip onto my pants, don’t ruin my cuffs, and are so comfy I don’t even feel them. I simply cuff my jeans, fold them to the length I need them at, and clip them onto my pants. Gone are the days of bunched up jeans puffing out of my boots. Hurray for Stiruppz!
I used to use a pair of jodhpur clips to keep my jeans tucked into boots and just discovered Jean Straps – http://jeanstraps.com. The garter clip is totally thin and doesn’t rub against your ankle like bulky metal clips. A genius invention!
Thanks for the suggestion, ankles everywhere can appreciate that!
If you like Stirupz, you would love JeanGrabbers… less than half the price and 10x cuter! Darling designs to choose from, the elastic strap is silky soft, and the clips have different metallic finishes with an adorable little boot embossed on each. Personally, I like JG’s prescribed method of wearing over Jean Straps, too. Seriously, you should check them out, see what you think. http://www.jeangrabbers.com (Special price for a 3-unit bundle, too! Perfect for stocking stuffers!)
I just got my pair of Jean Straps in the mail and they are fab! They have a large garter clip that attaches on to the bottom of your jeans. A fall wardrobe must-have!
Jean straps sound interesting, but how do you use them? Do you have to add velcro to the inside of your jeans? I’d like to seem them at work.I saw Stiruppz in Daily Candy a few weeks back and I bought a pair. To my surprise, they’re amazing and I can’t believe how comfortable, stylish and cute they are! And they also have the best customer service, very prompt and helpful. Overall, a pretty good company! Because of my experience, I’ve recruited all my girlfriends to them. Glad our style is secure with Stiruppz! Thanks ladies!
I had to tell you about another new nifty product that I just discovered…Jean Straps (www.jeanstraps.com). They too have found a solution for pulling your boots over your jeans while eliminating bunching. Instead of clips, theirs are applied with Velcro (which I like b/c you can’t tell it’s there at all). They are super cute and cheap. Just thought I would share…
