Being Angelenos we’re firm believers that denim can solve most sartorial conundrums. Looking to invest in a transitional dress to carry you through multiple seasons? Try this playful option. Need a sleek trench to add modern polish to your workwear ensemble? Give this a go. Feeling a little less than svelte? Reach for this universally flattering style. We could go on. Instead, we’ll let you peruse the best of this season’s coolest addition to the denim arsenal: The embellished jean. Opt for a jeweled style (as seen on the Dolce and Gabanna runway), or a street-style worthy patchwork pair and team with a crew-neck tee and simple flats for a mood-altering ensemble guaranteed to turn heads.
