Let me tell you, the first Thursday of the month sure seems to always be here before I even realize it, and this one is no different. So, what am I wearing today?
Sometimes, I wear jeans. And sometimes, I don’t think jeans are blog worthy. Actually, I never think jeans are blog worthy, but today it’s what I’m wearing and they just so happen to be of the hand-me-down sort. Not thrifted exactly, but a good ole hand-me-down counts as such over here.
There is really nothing special to say about these – they are just jeans after all. They’re what I wear when I don’t feel like wearing anything else. Remember all that laundry I said I didn’t have to do last Friday? Well, it caught up to me, and I was running short on everything so it took me no time at all to pick out the first thing I found – which happened to be my most casual outfit lately. I’m not too crazy about the fit of these jeans, they are a little baggy, but they do just fine for what they are – just a pair of jeans.
Speaking of which, are jeans not the hardest item of clothing to shop for? Or is it just me who feels this way? I have searched and searched for a pair to love, and it hasn’t happened in a long while. I once bought a pair from the Gap, for $50, and they were the closest pair to perfect that I had ever found. I never wanted to wear them. Make sense? I knew if I wore them, they would get worn and it would be a long time before I found another pair to take their place (and $50 was a little steep in my opinion for a pair of pants). I know with some things, you get what you pay for, and maybe jeans fit that category, I don’t know for sure though, I am still looking.
I still have them, and evidently they got worn plenty because they have a few unfortunate holes, and now I can’t wear them even if I wanted to. Having a pretty close to perfect pair of jeans sure was nice while it lasted. I hope to one day find another pair. For now, these will do just fine.

Have you found the perfect pair of jeans? Any particular brands that you are fond of? Give me some suggestions, I’ll need a new pair soon.

hi! Oh all my jeans are from thrift shops. My $1 White House Black Market sparkle jeans are so great. Have them for 2 years going on three and they are my all time fave. Then my Guess Skinnies for $5 are my second fav. Can’t get better than that ( on bargains for moi) Good luck to you in getting more and more deals at your thrift shops. I have Savers as my #1! Thanks for your loyalty to Fashion item Friday! ♥, Renae

I used to have a Savers and never left that place empty handed. I am gonna be on the lookout for jeans in the thrift shops though. A great way to get more than just one pair. Thanks for always stopping by. 🙂

I still do not possess any jeans – I am still not convinced about the image and whether they would really suit me. I do rather like some of the vintage styles such as Freddies so if I do eventually take the plunge I may buy some on those lines with wider legs. I think skinnies are definitely out.

I really like a wide-leg trouser. Occasionally I will come across a pair that fit to my liking. I don’t ever shop for jeans at the thrift stores, but I am gonna start now. There is such a variety to choose from.
