Black Jeans

For years and years I avoided black jeans. I just couldn't stand how quickly they seemed to fade to a dull, dirty-looking color. Then again, black jeans are such a nice departure from blue denim and they are so versatile. So I finally got myself a pair.

Today's black jeans are not as prone to fading since most of them contain lycra or another synthetic,  stretchy material besides cotton which will hold the dye better. I always wash them in cold water, inside out, and hang them to dry. Now I wear them all the time and wonder how I went without them for so long!
