Let's talk about boyfriend jeans. 

I have been a bit skeptical about boyfriend jeans. For me, they are something that I always love on other people, but never myself. That is, however, until I discovered the "Tomboy" jean  by Vigoss at Nordstrom. They have just enough of a baggy feel without making you feel like your slowly drowning in denim. Needless to say, I've fallen in love with them. As in... I've worn them every day since purchase. Yeah, they're that good. On a day to day basis, I wear them with a baggy basic tee, a belt and some gladiators. For this outfit, however, I dressed these jeans up with a structured polka dot top, my new obsession-of-a-hat and  my good ole black heels. There are so many options when it comes to these jeans, and I'm excited to play with them!

Statement Stems



As of lately, I've really been embracing patterned pants. They're such an easy statement piece. I especially love them because my style tends to be quite simple (lots of black, grey & neutrals). With that being said, statement pants are nice way for me to step out of the box. I think its important when styling these particular types of pants, to not let it get too.. how do I put it.. um Grandma-y (?) Haha. I love wearing these pants with a colored blouse & something edgy. Enjoy the weekend lovelies!
