Hope y’all had a great Thanksgiving. I certainly did.
While denim trends 365 days a year, the love for it peaks in the colder months. The more crisp temps get, the more we all tend to seek out our favorite pairs. Both the plain ones and the grown up ones with playful appliqués that are sighted on every fashion blogger’s iG feed.
Mundane as denim is, they can be dressed up too of course. Recently I've had my sights set on the Ellery quirky wide leg jeans, part of her capsule collection for Matches fashion. So much drama, my kind of drama. I styled the black here and here and and look forward to styling them again in the future.
So I’m sporting my favorite pair of distressed denim shorts. While I love the ones with really super duper huge cut outs on others, I’ll put off styling those until my thighs look like I do frog bends for appetizers, eat salads for dinner and do squats for dessert right after I teach planking class. Until then, I’ll stick with the reasonably distressed. I paired my distressed shorts with black cos heck, just like Paris, black is always a good idea and looks great with everything.
My black coat with zipper detail is almost 10 years old while my boots were free from Forever 21. When they had a buy something get something of equal or lesser value for free promotion, I got something for my daughter and these were, well free! They're OMG so cozy and comfy even with just tights underneath.
While I’m not big fan of the craziness called Black Friday shopping, I certainly indulged today just for the excitement and mainly to burn all the calories from ‘Turkey Day’. Yesterday was a well deserved cheat day by the way, cos I was off work all week like I stated here and had been very very very good all week. As I strutted through the city, I sighted this cool mural and of course I stopped and took a few shots. Played 'he loves me, he loves me not' with the flowers as well. Check out my denim partner on the mural.
Don’t we look adorable?
