Cardigan | Tank | Jeans (under $70) | Espadrilles | Bag (Similar) | Sunglasses | Earrings | Necklace | Bracelet | Ring
When it comes to jeans, I will be the first one to admit that I’m a total snob. It’s one of those things that I feel like once you open the door to the nice stuff, you can never go back. Truly, you don’t know what you’re missing until you try it…haha! It’s happened in my life with a few things: Lululemon workout leggings, denim, and sunglasses. Recently I’ve was asked by a reader to find a pair of jeans that didn’t break the bank, but was still comfortable and good quality. [Usually Madewell is my go-to for this description, but they still run a little over $100].
I have ordered quite a few pairs over the last couple of months and all have gone back to the store immediately. But! I ordered this pair last week, and I could not believe how much I loved them!! They have a lot of the fit elements of designer denim and the distressing does not look “cheap” by any means. The only difference I can find when comparing the two is in the quality of the fabric, but honestly you’re not going to get any closer than this pair! They fit completely true to size, but if you are in between, I would go with your smaller size, as they do have a good amount of stretch to them.
They have a perfect weekend relaxed feel to them, so I paired them with a simple stripe tank (this one is so good and under $20) and my favorite slouchy cardigan. And the photos are very forgiving, but these espadrilles are on their last leg. I’ve worn them for two years now, and it’s a miracle that they are still in tact for how much I wear them in the Spring and Summer months. I’m definitely going to be buying a second pair now that the temps are warmer!
Hope you had a relaxing weekend! Thank you so much for reading! xoxo Daryl-Ann
