Boyfriend Jeans

Sometimes you want to love a trend but you just can't make yourself.  I really love the look of boyfriend jeans on everyone else, but when I went and got myself a pair, I just couldn't make myself love the look.  I feel like I have a few too many inches extra on the hips and too few inches as far as height to pull off this look!  I do like that it helps me to be a little more casual, though, so I will probably still pull them out occasionally.  Surprisingly enough, I do not feel like you have to love every.single.look.  Sometimes it really is awesome just to be comfortable!!

Isn't this purse lovely?!  I have been looking for an affordable cognac purse for quite some time, and when I stumbled upon this one at Francesca's, it had all of my non-negotiables that I was looking for.  Cognac?  Check.  Gold chain links?  Check.  Crossbody option?  Check.  Affordable price tag?  Check check.  I love this purse and know I'm going to use it a ton in the winter!

I wore my boyfriend jeans twice in one week (which is really crazy since I just got through saying I'm not crazy about them on me!) since I had a week full of errands and basketball camp for the older girls.  This time I styled the jeans with a fun pair of pink boat shoes that were handed down to me.  I have been looking for just the right thing to wear these shoes with, and I think they made the outfit a lot more fun!

I just noticed that I have a thing going with Penney's lately!  I have been loving having a new place to shop and get great deals.  

How about you?  Do you love the boyfriend look?  
Happy Friday, and have a great weekend!

  1. I feel the same way about boyfriend jeans so I don't often wear them without a slight heel of some kind. I am height challenged too! I like them on you with that simple white shirt, so you are being too hard on yourself.
