Sequined bomber jacket: c/o Tatyana Beloy for Only Belgium - sweater: Oasap - tank top: H&M - ripped denim: DIY - gold wedges: ASOS - sunglasses: Vogue
Remember these mom jeans I wore once ages ago? They were gathering dust in my closet because they were a bit boring to me, not very inspiring. That's how it goes sometimes with gifted items. However, I spotted some distressed boyfriend jeans on pinterest that were only slightly loose fitting (compared to my regular, ultra loose pair of boyfriend jeans). EUREKA, almost like my mom jeans! Except for the lack of shredding, but that was something I could remedy myself. I found some sanding paper and got to it. After about half an hour, this was the result. I'm pretty happy! Probably going to work on these jeans some more, might even lightly bleach them. I'll keep you posted.
This oufit was entirely too chilly for the time of year but I guess I got cocky when I saw the blue skies and the sun. I mean, March means spring, right? Apparently not. It was balls-cold and I was a fool for wearing this. At least it looks nice! If you're somewhere warmer, I hope you're inspired. If not: be more patient than I was, OK. One upside: I'm happy to report that these gold wedges are not nearly as uncomfortable as I initially feared. And I added socks, closed shoes and a wool cardigan the minute I stepped inside again.
PS: this Tatyana Beloy x Only bomber is sure going to get a lot of wear when the weather does finally warm up. Love it!
PPS: I've been obsessing over True Detective aka the best new tv show in ages. It's so moody, intense and intellectually stimulating! Yeah, I'm pretty happy with my Rex&Rio right now. Have you seen the show? What do you think?
I've also been watching True Detective, but now I'm stranded because it's getting to creepy to watch alone. Yes, I'm easily creeped. But loved it so far! :)
ReplyDeleteSeconded for the "True Detective". Also: love those shoes! Totally cute, even if weather-inappropriate.
ReplyDeleteNEKED! En ik ga ook aan TD beginnen, Jef is al helemaal obsessed.

I love everything you have on, especially the shoes. (Did not know I have a fetish, maybe wrong word to use, about shoes). Here's my "But", why are you spending money on ripped clothes? especially at the dollar amount they cost? Could you not just buy some beautiful pair and take scissors that way you could place the rips in the exact spots appropriate for your body shape? Must be age related, being over 60
ReplyDeleteyou must not have read my post! I actually got these as a gift and did rip them myself, so I did exactly what you're suggesting! :D
ReplyDeletewell, I read the tittle, apparently skipped to the second paragraph but it was the shoes that caught my attention. I plead guilty. but really the shoes are gorgeous
ReplyDeleteUsing sandpaper? That's a wonderful idea. probably always been done, but I did not know it. Thanks
Love this outfit, those shoes are everything! It's definetely warm enough to dress like that where I live but I feel very uninspired. I too am obsessed with True Detective! It's such a good show and Mathew McConaughey looks really good in it, so that makes it even better ;)
ReplyDeleteno problem, the shoes are pretttty mesmerizing! And yeah, rough sandpaper is the best tip if you want to distress denim yourself :)
ReplyDeleteomg yessss his intenseness is irresistible. He's so LEAN
