printed crop flare jeans

Free People Youthquake Printed Crop Flare Jeans

 

Just a quick post today!  I purchased these pretty Free People Printed Crop Flare Jeans back in February and have been wanting to wear/shoot them, but it's been extrememly hot.  (I clearly should have taken advantage of the weather back in February.)  The print is so fun and I love the bright coral colour!  Unfortunately, this pretty vintage-inspired daisy print is almost sold out, but these jeans now come in an 'Indigo Gingham' print!  (They also come in another print, but they're almost sold out as well.)  These flare jeans have stretch to them so they're super comfortable.  They're cropped but, since I'm so petite, they're basically a regular flare jean on me, which makes me happy because I don't have to hem them.  I would not be surprised to see these flare jeans in more prints in the near future!

 

If you're looking for a floral print jean, I'm also obsessing over these Free People floral-print flare jeans.  The 'Hibiscus Combo' is SO pretty and, if you're really looking for a bold print, the 'Psychedelic Combo' print is super cool.  I own the 'Lime Combo' and these jeans are also super comfortable.

 

Happy (printed flare) shopping!

friday find: pearls

{Free People Pearl Crop Straight Leg Jeans}

Happy Friday!  I was in Florida this past week visiting Orlando, Palm Beach and Miami!  It was such a great trip, especially Palm Beach, a place I've never been to.  I am already booking our next trip!  I tried taking pictures of my outfits but I was dying in the heat (I don't know how bloggers do it and look so chic and not sweaty ha!) so unfortunately I won't have those to show you, but I will wear those outfits in the near future I'm sure and will post them soon.  Anyway, today's find is something I found while shopping in Disney Springs: these amazing Free People Pearl Crop Straight Leg Jeans.  They are full length on me, but fit great.  I love embellishments on denim.  They make wearing a pair of jeans that much more fun!  Plus, they look fancy but you don't feel fancy (i.e., uncomfortable).  I preferred the fit of these Free People straight-leg jeans, but Anthropologie also makes a similar pair of jeans embellished with pearls in a relaxed boyfriend fit.

Happy shopping!

spring mules #inspo

I've been looking for the perfect pair of mules for spring.  I'm obsessing over these gorgeous Gucci Princetown New Flora Mules (or these pink ones, or these rose-print ones).  With a pair of mules this gorgeous, I would pair them with cropped flared jeans to really show them off, an off-the-shoulder top (I love pairing stripes with florals), a pair of sunglasses and a pretty bag.  And would wear this outfit on repeat.

#OOTD / fall uniform: slouchy sweater, high-low hem jeans & booties

Happy Friday!  It's sweater weather today and I could not be more excited!  I'll probably have to take the sweater off later in the day, but this morning is cool and I can actually wear a sweater and a pair of jeans.  Today's #OOTD sums up my fall uniform: slouchy sweaters, cropped jeans (I'm a huge fan of the high-low hem!) and booties.  I'm also a big fan of bright colours, especially red, for A/W and this Free People All Mine Sweater looks SO cozy.  (It comes in a bunch of colours if you're not a fan of red.)  I'm obsessing over these Citizens of Humanity Liya Hi-Lo Hem Jeans.  Last, but not least, a pair of booties to complete the outfit.  These Steve Madden Pistol Booties are currently part of the Nordstrom sale that's happening until November 13!

#OOTD / cold shoulder sweater

Happy Friday!  Part of my morning routine is checking out Shopbop's new items.  There is always something new.  I 'heart' my favourites, but sometimes there is that item that is love at first sight and I add it to cart immediately.  That's how I felt as soon as I saw this J.O.A. Cold Shoulder Sweater.  I had a feeling it would sell out quickly, but it was so hot here it seemed silly to buy a turtleneck sweater, even with the cold shoulder, so I was going to keep an eye on my cart (Shopbop also emails you if your 'hearts' are low in stock) and if it showed there were only a few left then I would purchase it anyway.  Then a few days later Shopbop had their big 'Event of the Season' and I was excited that I would get this sweater for 25% off (already a steal at $75 IMO), but knew I had to jump on it.  But I was stuck in a car with a crappy signal and sure enough it sold out.  I searched everywhere for this sweater but could not find it.  (This Pam & Gela Cold Shoulder Turtleneck was going to replace my need for this sweater, but I thought I would be patient and wait.  Maybe someone would return an XS.)  

Yesterday I did what I usually do, checked Shopbop's new items, and there it was.  This J.O.A. Cold Shoulder Sweater, stocked in every size.  I was browsing other items and probably not even half an hour later, I noticed there was only one left in my size.  I panicked, but quickly checked out.  It's always funny to me when a piece of clothing affects me this way.  There are SO many cold shoulder sweaters out there right now, but for some reason I had to have this one.  I think it's a combination of the colour (it's also avail in black here, but I wanted the ivory), shape and thickness.  I cannot wait to wear it, especially since it's starting to get cool here in the evenings.  I picture the sweater with a pair of cropped jeans and these adorable Jeffrey Campbell Vionnet Flats.  I love the colour of this Marc Jacobs Gotham Small Bauletto Satchel.  Wine and pink are one of my favourite colour combos for fall.

crop kick flare & flatforms

 {GAP Authentic 1969 Crop Kick Jeans;

Anthropologie Ruffled Hem Tee;

MICHAEL Michael Kors Sandals (similar here);

Vanessa Mooney Bolo Green Stone Necklace (sold out, similar here);

Urban Outfitters Hat (sold out, similar here);

Prada Sunglasses}

It seems to me people either love the crop kick flare or hate them.  I became obsessed with them (love these and these), but hesitated because I'm so petite.  They would end up being regular flares on me (which is great in a sense because then I don't have to hem regular flared jeans).  But I wanted at least a little crop so I checked out GAP since they have a petite section and sure enough they had these great crop kick jeans.  I normally stay away from the petite section because I'm usually not crazy about how they fit on me (I know, weird), but these jeans fit perfectly.  They're super comfortable.  I paired them with these flatforms I bought last year (or the year before), which are still popular.  Flatforms are super comfortable because they're not as high as your typical wedge sandal, but they still give you height.  My favourites are below!

Happy shopping!
