White Out

As Spring gets closer (we will see what the Groundhog says today), I have completely moved past Winter clothes and am beginning to prepare my wardrobe for Spring.  Number 1 item on my list was a new pair of white jeans.  You already know my obsession with Rag and Bone/JEAN (reference here and here) so it was pretty easy for me to pick out this little pair.

Rag and Bone/JEAN The Bell Jean

A huge plus was that I picked them up during Barney's incredible holiday sale for less than half the price.

This was also a huge plus for my hubby.

Here are some other white jeans that I have my eye on, just in case I need a backup pair....

J Brand Lovestory Flare Jean
I own these in another color and I am obsessed AND they are currently 30% off!

DL1961 Angel Ankle Jeans

7 For All Mankind Straight Leg Jeans

Yes, I will wait for Memorial Day...or will I???  I mean, it is Orange County where the sun is always shining.

Do you follow the "No white after Labor Day" rule?

I don't.  I like white too much.

You can call me a rebel.

Bringing the 70's Back

I have developed a crush on all things 70's lately.  Blame Rachel Zoe and Nicole Richie with their fabulous 70's fashion but I cannot seem to get enough of the super wide legged, high waisted trousers, big sunglasses and fabulous printed blouses.  One of my favorite blogs, Mommy Chic (you should definitely check her out!) blogged about some high waisted Gap jeans that were currently on sale.  Lucky for me, I was able to track them down for just $10!  STEAL!  Here was my debut of the jeans.  What do you think?  Mind you people, I am not a fashion blogger, these photos were a quick snap from my hubby (BTW, how do they pose?  I felt SO silly!).  Please do not have high expectations....

Curious about everything else?

Sunglasses - Marc by Marc Jacobs

Tank - Tory Burch

Belt - Gap

Shoes - DV by Dolce Vita

Handbag - Marc Jacobs

We headed to the movies after this and saw Crazy, Stupid, Love.  I loved it!  Highly recommend!

Only two more days until the voting is over!  Thank you so much for the continued support!

Found Them!

I have been searching Orange County for the Rag and Bone colored denim collection.  Apparently individuals in Orange County are not the client they are looking for because they have been absolutely impossible to find.  Lucky for me, New York is different.  I was able to pick up the Elephant Flare jeans in a cobalt blue at Bloomingdales.  I just adore them.  I am going to try something new and post pictures of me in them so you can get idea of just how bright and fun they are.  This is from our day on Balboa Island.  Sorry in advance for the lack of professional photography (aka. the cropping of pictures, no posing, etc).....

I was squatting down to pick up my daughter,
I don't walk like this

And just because I want you all to know how much I am embracing this bright color movement, here is a fabulous picture of me in my bright blue jeans and bright green toes.  

Here are some other options that will help you embrace all this fabulous color!

Current/Elliot Skinny Stretch Ankle Jeans in Kelly Green

J Brand Cropped Skinnies in Fuschia

Show Me Some "Flare"!

I have two favorite styles of jeans.  Skinnies (preferably Jeggings) and Flare/Bellbottom.  They are on completely opposite sides of the jean spread but that is me.  Always extreme one way or the other.  I live in my J Brand Love Story jeans and they are starting to see their last day.  The question is, do I replace what I know and love or venture out to try something new?  Here are some of my options.....

Know and Love

 J Brand Love Story

Or Perhaps a little more flare?

7 for all Mankind Rachel Bellbottom

Potentially a higher rise?

Rich and Skinny Sugar High Rise

Or embrace summer and go with a white?
