One size bigger fashion technique

The boyfriend jeans. I remember when the boyfriend jeans came in fashion, I was so excited, little did I know that I will have challenges finding my perfect fit. I went to so many different stores and I finally found my perfect fit at Topshop.

The boyfriend jeans are made in such a tricky way as they originated from the first true blue jeans created in 1879 and since then they have taken on a variety of cuts and fits which were mainly masculine. It has continuously evolved from its original design and legends like Marilyn Monroe began the boyfriend jeans craze in the 1960s.

They are meant to be worn slouchy and relaxed which is what I was struggling with as to me that meant loose fit. Loose fit would often be low waist and that didn’t cover my behind fully and that would make me uncomfortable. This happened until I decided to get one size bigger and that solved my problems with boyfriend jeans. How easy was it for you to find the perfect fitting boyfriend jeans?

Imagine if we were to apply the same technique to life, when something does not seem to work, we should move one level up like I did with my boyfriend jeans. My normal size did not give me the perfect fit that I wanted, so I decided to get one size bigger than my normal size. What does moving a level higher mean to you?

In most cases we get to have a better view of everything when we are at the balcony and that informs us of which decisions to make, that we would not have otherwise not have had a clear understanding of why we are stuck.

Think of what is currently not working out right now, and consider how you would move a level up to have a better view for you to make the necessary changes, even if everything is working quite well but you want to still improve, how would you move a level up to have a better view for you to inspire growth in your life.

Going a size bigger could be what we need. Move a level up and have a better view.
