Because one is never enough......... and I don't have to feed denim boyfriends.
Some of you may remember my horror a few weeks ago, when I discovered my beloved J. Lo BF jeans were wearing thin on the knees, and, OK, let's face it, inner thighs. I was primed for a wardrobe malfunction at any moment!
Duplication was not an option (curses!), so I had to hunt for another pair. Budget is tight, so premium, except perhaps for a pair of Kuts from the Rack, was out!
Success!
Where?
Old Navy -- and 40%off.
Now, these are "skinny boyfriends," and I wish they weren't hugging my calves. I tried sizing up, but ending up with a bad case of IK's "ponshewang," and lots of odd bunching in the crotch (oh my). I love the wash, however, the lower rise, and the pocket placement. You see, boyfriend jeans are often beloved for giving the wearing a certain "androgynous cool." Now, achieving this with my booty and hips is quite a challenge. Frankly, most retail lines aren't up for it. Still, these come closer than any I've tried on. The side view (don't have a pic) is even better. I wore this for our 4th of July Fireworks and am re-wearing it (repeats -- woohoo) today. These jeans have some give, but they don't bag out.
P.S. I detest posting rear view shots, but, in the interest of fashion research......
