It's a very different color combo for you and it's beautiful. I also like the look on you. Angie's right, it is a bit 80s, but that is a fun part of it. I love watching how creatively and almost fearlessly you develop your outfits. You never fail to impress. The white jeans look great on you. Have fun with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-jeans-yikes-lips-sweatshirt#post-1192371 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:50:11 +0000 Janet 1192371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find white bottoms so tricky, but it is because I'm self-conscious of the size of my hips and thighs. You have no such issues, so I bet these look great on you even without a big sweatshirt. Your style is so fun.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-jeans-yikes-lips-sweatshirt#post-1192369 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 14:48:07 +0000 Angie 1192369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 is so fabulously '80s.

I do think these look good and also love the white leather jacket in your second outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-white-jeans-yikes-lips-sweatshirt#post-1192277 Wed, 12 Mar 2014 12:39:56 +0000 leopardluxe 1192277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I've never been a fan of white jeans. Mostly because I'm a bit of a klutz/slob and fear spilling something on them (the amount I'll pay for something is directly proportional to how light or dark it is --the lighter it is the less I'll pay for it, because the odds of me accidentally staining it at some point&nbsp;are pretty high).</p> <p>I read Angie's post about white jeans awhile back and liked the looks she put together and recommendations she made. I still didn't rush out, however, and buy a pair of white jeans. It's not something I'd ever go actively seek out.</p> <p>While thrifting last month, though, I came across a pair of Zara basic white skinny jeans at the thrift store that looked like they were brand new, were my size and cost a whopping $5. So I decided, what the hell, let's see what I can come up with to wear with them (and force myself outside my comfort zone).</p> <p>Yesterday I paired them with a casual and&nbsp;fun Marcus Lupfer sweatshirt with a cool lips/mouth motif made entirely of tiny beads. Pretty sure this sweatshirt is meant to be a dress based on the length. I sometimes wear it half tucked with boyfriend jeans as a regular sweatshirt. In this instance, though, I opted to wear it at it's full length.</p> <p>I actually preferred it half tucked into the jeans but discovered why those Zara basic white jeans ended up at the thrift store...they're just a <i>*tiny bit*&nbsp;</i>too sheer. Honestly, I'm not sure anyone looking at me would have noticed it. But it made me uncomfortable so I don't want to wear them with anything that doesn't cover my butt.</p> <p>I don't mind the way it turned out. It was super comfy and I was feeling pretty puffy yesterday. So comfortable was mission critical. I threw the Burberry cashmere scarf on last minute since it was chilly early in the morning and I feared my neck would be cold till it warmed up during the day.</p> <p>What do you guys think? Did the white jeans work styled this way? Does anyone else but me have a strong aversion to white jeans?&nbsp;</p> <p>Also included one photo of my typical "running errands" attire from over the weekend. Leather moto, t-shirt, jeans, and some beat up old Keds I've had for years.</p> <p>Lips Sweatshirt dress: Marcus Lupfer (via designer consignment)<br />White Jeans: Zara Basic (thrifted)<br />Boots: Rachel Comey Mars boot in Sherbert color (via solestruck)<br />long sleeve white tee: Kohls<br />Bag: Vintage Chanel (via designer consignment)<br />Cashmere Pink plaid fringe scarf: Burberry (via flea market)<br />Sunglasses: Anne Klein&nbsp;(thrifted)<br />Jewelry: Gold snake earrings and ring (sorry, forgot to shoot close-ups!)</p>
