Spoylt styles of the season were on show; the Skinny, the Bootcut, the Wide Leg, the Boyfriend and the Slim Flare were all in hot demand.

“Jeans continue to dominate the trends for winter and it’s a must-have for any Fashionista to have a number of different options in her wardrobe.

It’s important to find the perfect jean fit for your bodyshape, a great pair of jeans can make or break your look and with our top denim stylists on hand at each of the three events guests are guaranteed to walk out looking like a denim diva.”
comments Belinda Waller, PR Manager for Jeanswest.

A special thanks goes out to the Gorgeous Cosmetics crew, Tony Bianco shoes, Yes to Carrots skincare, La Clinica eye cream and Mushroom Promotions.

Chasing Pavements - Adele (rmt)
Adele Laurie Blue Adkins must be feeling the pressure right now. Often compared with the other British loud mouths, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen and Kate Nash, she has achieved in one single what has taken them years. ‘Chasing Pavements’, is a sensuous slice of old-school soul that steers a big, brassy chorus through melodic twists and turns ` absolutely gorgeous!!!

Dynamite Love [feat. Dynamite MC] (Radio Edit) - Krafty Kuts Vs Freestylers (lib)
A veteran of the dance scene, Krafty Kuts has regularly been voted the worlds No.1 Breaks DJ. Teaming with the Freestylers and Dynamite MC he now has his first crossover hit that relies on a clever sample from Spandau Ballet’s “To Cut A Long Story”. This is indicative party rocking breaks that’s seen him remain at the forefront of the dance scene.

Don’t Stop the Music - Rihanna (umg)
If you haven’t heard this song you really are months behind popular culture. Sampling Michael Jackson’s “Wanna Be Startin’ Something”, this track was always going to be a hit, but truly broke through it’s unrelenting exposure on So You Think You Can Dance. Poptastic!

Both Gotta Move On - Scenario Rock (sma)
While they’ve been around since 1997, Scenario Rock first truly came to notice when they collaborated with Justice on “Skitzo Dancer” which was a huge club hit both here and overseas. Very much a part of the French Indie Rock scene, Scenario Rock heavily references the 80’s with lead singer Mehdi Pinson sounding much like Human League’s Phil Oakey.

What Is Woman - Eskimo Disco (rmt)
Eskimo Disco are making waves with their stadium synth-pop, produced on this debut album by Howard Gray of Apollo 440 (who’s also wrked with the likes of U2 and The Cure). They are clearly students of classic synth hooks, the beats are solid, stabbing and unsubtle, with the vocals a pouting hybrid of Duran Duran’s Simon Le Bon and The Cure’s Robert Smith.

Yep, we bet you’ve got some good and not-so-good memories! Well, keep the good memories in mind as we take you back!

You know what they say in fashion… what goes around comes back around and it’s time to revisit your A, B, Cs!

The Jeanswest Multiple Choice Cuties were recently out and about causing a stir at the Chadstone VIP Fashion Party.

The night was a flurry of fashion and retail therapy as the latest Autumn/Winter trends were showcased on and off the catwalk. The crowd loved our very own Multiple Choice Cuties as they brought the Jeanswest denim story to life.

Now even the Cuties need a little behind-the-scenes help when getting set to wow the crowd. The backstage crew for the event were Makeup Artist Cloe Bunter & Assistant Natascha Verkaik, the Conrad Mace Hair team with the hot heels supplied by Tony Bianco.

This season is all about the jean - stronger than ever, they’re a way of life. And like a Bestie, if the right fit, have been known to help in getting out of a tricky situation or two.

Maroon 5’s debut album Songs About Jane was a resounding success in Australia and New Zealand, topping the charts and notching up five time platinum sales in both countries. Sold out tours resulted, cementing Maroon 5 as one of Australia and New Zealand music fan’s favourite bands.

Drawing inspiration from Prince and Michael Jackson, their follow up album It Won’t Be Soon Before Long presented a more mature and confident Maroon 5 to the world. Debuting at #1 on the US Billboard chart the album sold over 400 000 copies in its first week in the US alone.

In Australia and New Zealand, the album has tread a similar path to their first. Already receiving Platinum certification in Australia and Gold in New Zealand, Maroon 5 have proven beyond doubt they are still one of the most in-demands bands today.

The Maroon 5 2008 tour shows kick off with OneRepublic (plus Brandi Carlile and Ry Cuming - Australian leg only) revving you up for the big one ‘Maroon 5′.

And of course, you can’t just look ‘OK’ when you meet the hottest band in town, it’s VIP style all the way! So, it goes without saying that the prize package includes a $1,000 Jeanswest Wardrobe.
