"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Well, what are the different jeans? I don't know the differences.

I want to know what kind of jeans are "fashion" today.

I'm skinny, so what type of jeans do you guy recommend me?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Skinny straight-legs are in. If you're ballsy, skinny, tapered jeans with a higher rise are at the cutting edge right now. Look at brands like Earnest Sewn, Acne, Nudie, Julian Red, Cheap Monday for this kind of look. Bootcuts aren't out yet, but straight legs should be where you look.

Where I live, jeans that are a bit loose (not baggy, just A LITTLE larger than your actual size) and a dress shirt tucked in are what girls dig the most.

seanchai is right. If you're at all interested in fashion, skinny/tapered or stovepipe/cigarette leg dark jeans are what's in. Depending on how much you're willing to spend, go to H&M and get a pair of raw Sliqs for $40, up to a local boutique for a pair of APC New Standards or New Cures, or Acne raw MaxCash ($200-$300). I'd go farther and recommend against the bootcut. Flared jeans are fully *out*.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

You can find Earnest Sewns at Nordstrom and Barneys and Bloomingdale's - they'll run $175-220 or so. Cheap Mondays are at Barneys and a lot - A LOT - of local boutiques with that hipster skinny aesthetic, and they're a relative bargain at ~$60. Acnes and Nudies are appearing in bigger stores like Barneys now, but are still mostly boutique brands. Nudies run $155-275 depending on cut and type of denim, and Acnes are all $200+ - I consider them overpriced. Julian Red is just about impossible to find in America (their whole operation is like four guys) nowadays, but Happy Endings in San Diego and Denim Bar outside Washington D.C. both stock them to the best of my knowledge.

For comparison, a similar "now" cut across these brands - a slim straight or tapered leg in a dark wash - breaks down like so:

Earnest Sewn Kyrre: $198
Acne Max Garage: $315 (!)
Nudie Thin Finn: $155
Cheap Monday Tights (the tightest): $60
Julian Red California: $175
APC New Standard (the loosest): $140

These brands all make different cuts that tend to fall around those price ranges, so if you're not comfortable with that skinny look you can still probably find something by them you will like. They all fall within the price range of Sevens and True Religions, and are much more unique and fashionable right now. Plus, with the local boutique connections they all tend to have, they go on sale BIG - like 50% in a lot of cases.
