outfit of the day: i FINALLY found colored jeans!

The search has been exhaustive, sometimes frustrating, but finally, FINALLY I’ve found colored jeans!

Blazer, J. Crew • shell and jeans, LOFT • shoes, Talbots

I’m not sure what it is about colored denim, but every single pair I tried on (from four completely different brands) was way too small, even when I went up a couple sizes. Why is colorful denim reserved for the super skinny style of jeans? Thankfully, LOFT offers this fab pair of modern skinny jeans in so many fun colors (I’m thinking about getting the dark purple next!). These jeans have the perfect amount of stretch and look as professional dressed up with a blazer as they do dressed down with a tee.

Sidenote – I got kind of pissed when someone drove down the alley where I was taking photos. Let’s face it – alley drivers are always usually creepers. But good news: my reaction was caught on camera.

Good lord. I am ridiculous. I cannot leave you with that lovely photo.

  7. It took me awhile to find a good fitting pair of colored jeans too. But now that I have, I want them in every color! I love those red ones. Might have to add some to my closet!

  8. The jeans look great on you :) I think we are jean twins today, just different colors!

  9. Those red jeans look great! Your reaction to the alley driver is hilarious, I’m glad you included it!

  10. I know what you mean about the skinnies. Maybe some designers don’t realize that thighs are SUPPOSED to be bigger than calves! Anywhoo… I’m glad you found such a great pair!
