STYLING TIP: Never let the hem of your jeans touch the floor. It's either you get it retailored or fold it up, just like what former PBB Teen Edition 4 housemate Jerico Redrico did.

Wearing skinny jeans is always a nice way to show off
those curvy hips. Pair it with high heels for an added dose of sexiness,
just like aspiring actress Danielle Lee.

STYLING TIP: Slim-fit jeans, like the ones on model

hem of the pants inside the boots for a more stylish approach.
