Genes of Jeans

You open your wardrobe and there you are slapped with those piled up clothes falling on you. You dig your favorite jeans and try it. Umm... not fitting? try the other one.. ummm little okay... dig more and you get your best look jean! You flaunt the brand! slide the belt inside and you are ready to walk!

Everyone is conscious about their fashion and everybody knows how to get the perfect look and Jeans have always been the fashion king for you. What so good about this worn look style jeans?

Jean or Jeans are trousers often made from denim or dungaree cloth. Often the term "jeans" refers to a particular style of pants, called "blue jeans," which were invented by Jacob Davis in 1871.

Jeans were originally designed for Cowboys and Miners and it soon became popular among the teenagers.


Jeans are now available in various fits including skinny, tapered, slim, straight, boot cut, narrow bottom, low waist, anti-fit, and flare.

Research on the trade of jean fabric shows that it emerged in the cities of Genoa, Italy, and Nice. In Nimes, weavers tried to reproduce jean but instead developed a similar twill fabric that became known as denim, from de Nimes, meaning "from Nimes".

Denim is not the only sturdy cotton fabric used for everything from working clothes to fashion items. There is also Dungaree. Dungaree was mentioned for the first time in the 17th century, when it was referred to as cheap, coarse thick cotton cloth, often colored blue but sometimes white, worn by impoverished people in Bombay, India a dockside village called Dongri. Dungri was exported to England and used for manufacturing of cheap, robust working clothes. English began to call “Dungri” cloth a little different and it became “Dungaree”.


Care and Wear of Jeans:

Despite most jeans being “pre-shrunk”, they are still sensitive to slight further shrinkage and loss of color from being washed. The Levi Strauss company recommends avoiding washing jeans as much as possible. The less you wash your jeans, the better your jeans become.

These and other suggestions to avoid washing jeans where possible have encountered criticism.

For those who prefer to refrain from washing their jeans there have been suggestions to freeze them in order to kill the germs that cause odor. However, this advice has been disputed as ineffective and replaced with the suggestion of baking them for ten minutes at 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

Such are the genes of Jeans!! 

Wear it and Flaunt it!

Insects Dishes

We think its very unusual for someone to eat insects because we are born and brought up in that food chain where we are used to eating pizza, cakes, veggies, chicken and other meat. For some its just like a normal breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I m sure everyone have heard of people eating insects but there is still more to know about insect dishes.

In many countries insects are a popular food. Insects dishes include “Omelette made from Silkworm and fried Honeybees in China,  Fried Locust in Thailand and yes last but not the least India too is included in it with speciality in Red Ant Chutney.


Well this is also a fact that many of us may eat insects without realizing it. That's true!!

Have a great day.
