Rip it Good

On this Friday eve, let's get comfortable with some jeans. Distressed jeans are comfortable and easy to wear on the weekends. I love the variety of fits and washes because they let you find what works just for you.

Light wash, skinny, ready for date night or an easy Saturday with some Converse.

A little frayed hem makes these super casual and cool.

So sassy. So careless in the cool girl kind of way.

Maybe the most streamlined of the bunch, easy to dress up for a date.

Casual and simple denim that will never let you down. Side note, these are all under 90 bucks.

Dynamic Denim

Last week my mom came into town for some wedding planning. We were walking around town and she mentioned that she's been on the hunt for a denim jacket as a transition jacket for summer nights into fall. This one's for you, mom.

Let's start with the classic. Levi's. You can't go wrong on the fit, quality, or price.

Uniqlo, Women Denim Jacket, $39
And speaking of great prices. Under $40? Yep.

I love this brand for denim. It lasts forever and they have some great washes.

American Eagle, AEO Denim Jacket, $59 $29

A denim jacket is going to be a workhorse piece in your closet from now until November. Find one that goes with your style so its easy to throw on top of anything.

Blue Jean Baby

Let's talk workhorse items in your closet. Denim. An easy weekend piece that you can dress up or down and the options for wash, fit, and style are endless. Today we're looking at your more casual denim, a little faded, maybe some distressing, but always fitted. Even a bf jean needs to accentuate your best curves. So let's see what we've got for under $100.

How classic. A little roll, a slide fade but an overall dark wash. Just perfect.

With more than 50 five star reviews, you really can't question the awesomeness of these jeans.

I love Old Navy Rockstar jeans. I've tried the more expensive labels, but I always come back to these. They first beautifully and they're so comfortable.

Banana Republic, Medium Wash Skinny Ankle Jean, $110 $49
A simple and sleek jeans that you can wear lace up heels or slip on sneakers to dress up or down.

A great denim serves multiple purposes. In my closet, I need my jeans to work for daytime and nighttime so I'm always looking for a snug pair of jeans that I can swap out some heels and accessories and go out with my girls.

She's Got Flare

Let's talk denim. You've got your skinny, bf, distressed, jegging, but today we are throwing it back. Flared. Stay with me. You remember your bell bottoms and how long your legs looked. Well it's back and it's grown up. Flared jeans come in any wash and so many styles. Let's take a look.

Clean lines and the wash is "perfect navy" and it is.

Hello lovely price! I love a great Loft jean. They last forever.

This high waist jean is lengthening your leg and nipping in at the tiniest part of your waist.

French Connection, Belle Bottom Flared Jeans, $99
Laid back and ready to party. 

Bring back your flares. It's time to dress up your jeans and put on your heels. Your skinny jeans need a break.

She's Got Flare

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I thought we would ease into the week with some casual looks with denim. As I've mentioned earlier, the 70s are a big deal this fall. Part of this trend is long leg flared denim. It creates a dynamite silhouette and you can find a pair that fits any budget.

Gap makes a really solid jean and I love this simple yet sleek look.

A lighter wash and a higher wash, very 70s. Also love her sweater.

I love a dark wash with no fading or whispering. They create a long line and are easily dressed up or down.

The name says it all. These jeans were made for the 70s and they are oh so fab with long sleeve floral, drapey sweater, or simple tee.

Flared denim is not your middle school bell bottom. It is tailored, fitted, and ready for some heels. Preferably chunky or stacked heel for maximum impact.

Ann Taylor, Relaxed Slim Denim Jeans, $89

Dressed in Denim

A few weeks ago we looked at denim dresses. Today I thought we would continue the trend and look at a style that is weirdly adorable: the denim top. Not your standard chambray, I get that. It's soft and versatile. This is a true denim top. It's different and funky. Let's take a look.

Forever 21, Polka Dot Denim Shirt, $14
Gotta love the price and this breezy top is so laid back for the weekend.

Anthropologie, Washed Denim Tee, $68
This will be a closet staple. The touch of texture just adds to the simple construction of this tee. 

Last Call Neiman Marcus, Fade to Blue Denim Inverted Pleat Shirt, $79 $47
How unique is this top? I love the spread collar and simple sleeveless style.

Romwe, Bow Slim Denim Blouse, $26 $10
I may have saved my favorite for last. I love the long bow tails!

Who knew denim was this versatile? I mean I where my jeans multiple times a week but dresses and tops? You go denim.

Stepped Up Jeans

Coated jeans have been huge this season. They are a great alternative to the usual denim, a bit dressier without trying too hard. One color that I really love in this style is the red or merlot. How often do you get a chance to wear red pants? This deep red is such an easy go to.

Banana Republic, Red Coated Skinny Ankle Jean, $69
A great 99% cotton jean that will be tight on first wear but then relax to your perfect fit.

Victoria's Secret, Siren Coated Mid-Rise Jean, $67
This darker red is a great option for a dinner date. Add some high heels so that the pant hem just skims the top of the heel.

Nordstrom, Mya Coated Skinny Jeans, $79
Oh yes. The leather like look of these pants is sexy while still being so comfortable.

I had to include a jegging option because they're just so darn comfy. I also am loving the model's shoes.

These oxblood coated jeans are a step outside of the normal blue denim norm. They're edgy, they're memorable, and they are a great alternative to your go to jean.

Meet My Bf

Happy almost Friday lovebugs,
One of the items I reference a lot on this blog is the boyfriend jean. I think it's a great relaxed style that can go with a lot of the tops I post. Well today we're going to look at a few that are all under $40.

I'm quite partial to this wash because there is not a ton of fading and the darker color is a bit dressier.

You really can't beat this price and the wash it great for summer.

A nice relaxed fit in a white wash. Simple, clean, dress up or down.

Seriously though, $19. You can't pass these up.

Denim doesn't have to break the bank, especially with a more relaxed fitting bf jean. Pick a wash that is fairly consistent all the way down the leg and try to avoid whiskering near the waist.

Those Damn Pants

Happy almost Friday,
It's been a busy week, but luckily, we're almost done. Today's post comes from one of my most fashionable friends, LPU. She is my go to for all things put together and fabulous. She, like so many of us, does not have a bajillion dollars to spend on her wardrobe, so I'm always picking her brain to see what she is wanting to buy and find it for cheaper. Today, she wants "those damn pants you can wear under boots"so I'm bringing them to you for under $50.


Target, Corduroy Pant, $22
Some people feel that bright colored pants shouldn't be worn in the winter. I am not one of those people. These are perfect with flat boots and a cardigan.

I like these because the dots are a darker blue not stark white.

Old Navy, Super skinny jeans, $19
Black skinny jeans for $19. You are so freaking welcome.

Forever 21, Safari Print Denim Skinnies, $20
Feeling bold? Like really bold? How about these sassy pants. 

So there you go, some super affordable, skinny pants for boots or just on their own.

Chambray Anyone?

Happy almost Friday! Thank goodness. I'm ready for a weekend. Today we're looking at some fantastic chambray dresses. Denim is so old school, chambray is somehow chic and great for summer.

The tiers are so feminine on this dress and the bit of a drop waist is very unexpected.

Hive and Honey, Chambray Tulip Hem Dress, $39
Very sexy and breezy for an evening out. I would add a colorful or metallic skinny belt to break things up.

Levi's, Sunday Dress, $59
A great scoop neck dress for summer. I would pair this with some platform sandals.

The Limited, Crossover Chambray Dress, $39
I really love this dress because you can dress it up or down and for the price, you really can't go wrong.

Chambray is beautiful for summer. Just add colorful, blingy, or chunky jewelry to it.
