7 for All Mankind Roxanne Flood JeansGracious be, ya'll. We have made it to Tuesday.
What did you do on your Monday night? I hit the gym with a trainer friend (thanks again, T) and consequently, this morning I feel like I've been hit by an 18-wheeler. He kicked my rear. It really, really took everything in my being to climb down off my bed this morning. (I have a tall bed, hence the reference to "climbing down" instead of "climbing out")
Yesterday's announcement of the J Brand jegging giveaway had my brain reeling with thoughts of denim last night...alas, we are talking about jeans today. Oh and shorts, shirts, jackets and dresses, too.
Let's start with the top of the body and dress our way down, k?
A cool denim jacket or shirt never goes out of style, so invest in a durable one and wear it to heck and back. The more distressed and "worn", the better.

Moving right along...raise your hand if you owned a denim dress like 50,000 years ago? Me too. And it was heinous.
7 for All Mankind High Waist Ruffle DressThis beauty from 7 for All Mankind is cute, frilly and oh-so-2010. A vast improvement from my OshKosh B'Gosh jumper from when I was 5.
Show off those legs you've been working all winter for and getcha some cut-offs. I love (and happen to own) these below.

Do you have a favorite brand of denim? What's your favorite style of jean? Cropped, bootcut, skinny...?
Be blessed, lovelies-
Skinny jeans are a girl's best friend! Whether with heels, ballet flats, riding boots, or sandals, they always look chic. Great post!
ReplyDeleteI have Joe's Jean's Chelsea and they do look great. I LOVE designer denim!! I can't believe there was a day when I refused to by them because of price. They are so worth it.
ReplyDeleteSkinny jeans are taking over my closet! I just got a great pair of Hudson's but I also love Joe's, Citizens, and Rock and Republic. I do have a great pair of 7 for All Mankind trouser jeans that I wear when I'm not having a skinny jeans day.
