You may not believe this but I got a boyfriend too!

Just last week I wrote on Julie's thread that I am not sure about the BF jeans trend for my body - and look what I got at NAS!
These are Kut Catherine BF jeans and I really need to learn how to wear them. This is my first attempt for work today - I wore them rolled up to the length in pic 1 on the right. Was it too long? I tried to roll them up once more like in pic 1 on the left but it is too much of the fabric...
They are long enough to pass my ankle bone so I am reluctant to chop the length off because I am not sure if I want to wear them longer length. Here in pic 3 I tried them unrolled and rolled just a bit.
Please tell me which is the right way to wear them. Somehow I feel the length in pic 3 frumpier but it may be an adjustment factor.
I have included back view in pic 2 - you know, this is my least favorite and most sensitive view...:-) Passable?
I really like how comfortable they are and I think I am warming up to this trend. I also like the wash - all other jeans I have are dark - and that fabric is very soft, almost velvety for touch.
Here is another debut here - my new white cotton blend blazer from Melanie Lyne. I am so happy I popped into their store last Sunday because I was looking for a longer length white blazer all summer without success - and here it was on 75% off! It is a bit tight in the hips if I close it but I am not going to close it anyway and it looks fitted open. I think I am going to wear this baby at least twice a week now! I only hope it will stand the hand wash because there is no way I am going to dry clean it every 2 wears and you have to do it that often for a white blazer.
I am afraid none of these is K/R because I love both items!

Wow, looks excellent! They really suit you, and the blazer is a great addition to the look!

These jeans look absolutely amazing, front and back! Great find!

I really like these, Sveta, including how you've styled them - one of my favorite "boyfriend" posts here on YLF (I am hot and cold on this trend!).

KILLER. I hereby crown you Queen Boyfriend!

#1 and #2 are sublime!

velvetychocolate

WOW! These are spectacular on you!!!

Best BF jeans I've seen yet Amazing...geeze, I think I might need some smelling salts or something.

PS - editing to add: I was so impressed with how gorgeous these jeans looked on you that I immediately rushed on over to Nordstrom to add them to my shopping cart/wish list (which is getting a wee bit insane lately). Did you just order your regular size and they turned out to be nicely slouchy while still fitting you beautifully? Or did you happen to size up or down? I never quite know with KUT jeans, most of the time, it seems like I can size down a wee bit, but then - probably don't want to do that for BF jeans. Did you just get your usual Kut size? Thanks for any information you can provide on the sizing....so FAB on you...WOW.

Sveta

Whew, I was not off the mark then today - what a relief!
Angie, honestly, I did not expect to be crowned on my first attempt...BTW, I got them with Jonesy's endorsement
Angie, do you have any preference for the length in pic 1? I cannot make up my mind here. Also - does it make sense to keep the length so I can wear them like in pic 3? Honestly I like them less longer in pic 3 than in pic 1 but 3 days ago I was not sure I can wear them at all... You know how hard it is for me to find the long enough jeans - should I keep the length and stick with thicker roll or just chop it off?

Diana

Wow, Sveta, your new boyfriend is HOT! This is a great look for you. I like the length you chose (right side of #1); like I said in my thread yesterday, I think I prefer my BF jeans just a little bit longer than my clams because I think it goes with the slouchy vibe better. I don't think I would chop them, since it would be nice to have the longer option as well - might work well with some heeled or platform boots.

BTW, I wanted to wear mine with my new white blazer too but it's just too hot...

fern

I love #1 right side. You look amazing, like you are ready to take on anything.

cjh

The length on the right looks right to me. Great jeans, and they look fab on you, along with the white jacket.

Amy

Holy moly, Sveta, do you know how to rock those boyfriends or what?

Awesome on you, Sveta! Please tell me -- did you size up in the jeans? If so, how much?

Scarlet

I really like them rolled up in 1 and 2. That blazer looks fantastic! Love the whole outfit.

Diana, thankfully it cooled down a bit - to 28C - so I could wear my new blazer today.
GGB, I sized up1 size from my regular size.
So it looks like the lower roll in pic1 on the right is endorsed so I don't need to chop off some length from the jeans!
Thank you for your help on this one - I really appreciate it.

These are great on you Sveta! So glad you found a BF They didn't work at all on me, I tried! Just goes to show, we all have to keep looking - there is a match out there for us lol.

kellygirl

Super fab! I love this look on you, Sveta!

Your new boyfriend is here to stay! The white blazer is all sorts of FAB!

CocoLion

Fantastic! I like this look best the way you have it in the left hand side picture in photos 1+2 (they are the same, right)? I think the length is just right and I like the semi tuck, with just a hint of belt.

Wearing the heeled black peep-toe pumps is an interesting mix of casual and dressy. You are giving me ideas! I think you could also pull off nude, black or red* sandals with this look (or even flats, you have the height!).

Great jacket too, lucky you for finding it, I love the fit on you.

* or cobalt or pink, really any pop of color color

Suz

BRILLIANT!!! These are the perfect summer jean, Sveta! You look amazing. I like the length in 1/2 best with the semi-tuck.

Mochi

You are rocking these. What a fresh look.

Deborah

Sveta, you are rocking these BF jeans. I think #1 looks to be the best length and that is a perfect white jacket for you. Just gorgeous.

Jjsloane

You totally rock this look! Taking notes - love the white jacket with the stripes.

DeclawedJaguar

Love the jeans and the jacket! My build is similar to yours and finding a well-fitting jacket is my second most difficult challenge after finding a well-fitting pair of jeans. Kudos on finding jackets that look like they were tailor-made for you.

Parsley

You look too cool for words, Sveta!
That is how to wear boyfriend jeans in a totally grown up way- Brava!

Claudia

Sveta, I will admit here that I have not liked the BF jeans on very many, but on you here they look great. Love these on you! Flattering, loose fitting, rolled jeans that don't remind me at all of The Farmer in The Dell. You look really chic and stylish!

You look soooooo good!!!!!!!!!!

Sveta, this is perfect, I'm saving this one !

nancylee

Both of your finds look fabulous, Sveta! You really know your style and what works for you. And now you've inspired me to try BF jeans.

merwoman

And that's how it's done! Smashing Sveta! And love your "photo-booth"!

Transcona Shannon

Ack! Love these on you Sveta - especially #1/#2. Now I have to try mine with heels too - it looks fabulous. And your new white blazer is gorgeous. This look totally ROCKS!!!
