Hello everyone! I hope you are having a great day or night wherever you are in the world! Today I am going to be sharing with you all a “FAB FIND”. If you are not already aware I created this series of blog posts last summer. This is going to be my second installment in the “FAB FINDS” series which is about finding merchandise that looks as though an expensive brand or retailer would carry the product or a dupe of a high-end product. In my first ever FAB FINDS blog post I wrote about a dupe that I found for the DIOR CD SO REAL/S sunglasses which you can read HERE. I love that blog post because I really do think I “nailed it” and found such an awesome dupe! Anyways, today I want to write about a pair of denim jeans that I have been loving at the moment and are similar to pairs worn by Selena Gomez, Kendall Jenner, and the Hadid sisters. The style of jeans I am referring to is two-toned denim. Now, this pair of jeans is definitely not for everyone and in fact, a lot of people do not like these jeans but for some reason, I am really drawn to them and absolutely adore them (and so do bloggers and celebs!) The pair most similar to my “dupe” which I purchased from American Eagle is the FRAME Denim brand in the style “Remix”. FRAME Denim also carries two styles similar to the “Remix” style one of which was worn by Selena Gomez. These two pairs of denim are quite similar and for the price, you cannot go wrong. I do not want to ramble too much so I am now going to go into more depth on the two pairs of jeans.
Name of Denim:
FRAME Denim: “Nouveau Le Mix” in the style “Remix”

Similarities and Differences:
Similarities:
- similar wash: AEO Denim has a light wash in the center and a medium wash on the sides the FRAME Denim “Remix” pair also has a light wash in the center and a medium wash on the sides
- both pairs are “high-rise”
- both pairs have an un-finished hem
- both pairs are cut un-even at the hem on the side
- the price tag (it’s pretty obvious)
- the FRAME Denim jeans come in several washes and styles (as shown above) 1. “Mix & Match” (exact opposite of AEO denim) 2. “Remix” (the most similar to the AEO denim) 3. “MixMatched” (least similar to the AEO denim)
- the FRAME Denim pair of jeans are quite cropped – hitting just below the calf (it might differ depending on your height)
- the American Eagle pair of jeans are more frayed at the hem and the un-even hem is nicely cut. The FRAME Denim pair of jeans are slightly frayed and the un-even hem does not have a clean cut
- the FRAME Denim pair of jeans has the medium wash on the side and the back of the jeans while the American Eagle pair of jeans only have the medium wash on the side
