Well, I'm back in jeans again. I know I said no more clothes for awhile, but there is a pretty glaring hole in my wardrobe. I have one pair of shorts, one pair of (brown) cargo pants, and one pair of "colored" jeans (they're grey; that was as far as I was willing to tiptoe into the world of colored denim at the time). But now, I want to add some more colored and possibly also some printed shorts, some more brightly colored pants, and a pair of olive cargo pants.
So if anyone has any suggestions on where I can find these things on the cheap, that would be helpful! I'm really picky about my shorts, because my hips are so much wider than my thighs, but any recommendations are welcome! And I haven't had much luck finding colored pants because most of the ones I've found are made of that stretchy fabric that just love to show off my panty line. I'd like some that are true denim because I need that extra bit of structure. Know of anywhere I can get colored denim like that?
As a reward, here is a picture of me getting photo-bombed by the kid and the dog:
And because it doesn't get much more casual than jeans and a flannel shirt, I'm linking up with Fashion & Beauty Finds for Keeping It Casual Wednesday!
Target has some really cute options for not too bad. Also, forever 21 is pretty inexpensive without looking it.

Thanks! I haven't been to F21 in awhile, I'll have to check them out again soon.
DeleteI would recommend finding jeans you like (especially thrift jeans) then bleach them and dye them your prefered color. They have all sorts of dyes at pretty much every store in the laundry section. Then you know you like the cut and fabric and you get to pick the color.
ReplyDeleteThat is brilliant. I didn't know you could do that. I'll have to give it a shot!
DeleteCute casual look! I want some more colored denim too. I've been wearing my yellow pair way too much. I found mine at the Gap a year or so ago. Maybe try Target? I think you won't really know until you just start trying on a bunch of them. Check locally owned boutiques too.

Thank you! You're right, I'll probably just have to get out there and try everything until something works!
DeleteI just got cute shorts for super cheap at Old Navy, I'd check there.
