Crush

{Zara jacket (similar) + shoes (similar), F21 tank, Paper Denim & Cloth jeans (old), Longchamp bag, Asos claw cuff, crystal collar necklace}

These boyfriend jeans have been in my life since my college days back in Santa Barbara. I snagged them at a boutique on State Street on major discount (nearly 75% off) and have had a major crush on them ever since (going on 7 years). I mean who doesn’t love completely worn-in threads that are so soft it’s like you’re wearing sweats?! With the amount of use they get, I just pray they don’t rip in the wash or completely come undone. Definitely one of my go-to’s… it blows my mind why they haven’t been on the blog until now.

Side note- I spotted this necklace while reading blogs (I totally forgot where, so if it’s yours, please email me so I can give you credit) and had to jump on it. Clearly, it’s a knockoff of the Dannijo version, but if you don’t have an extra $800 to spend, I think this is a great alternative.

  2. Amen sister to the Dannijo knock off….not that I am promoting that (lol) being a designer and all but so many people are DIYing these days, so you are bound to see knock off versions of everything….You are literally making me want to click purchase on the gofavor website…I had to see it up close zoomed :) tsk tsk Crystalin! ha and anyway, I’ve seen a few sites that actually have a similar piece!

    This is definitely one of my favorite kinds of outfits to wear! You can’t go wrong with boyfriend jeans and heels. I had a pair of boyfriend jeans that I loved and lost due to them falling apart. My fiance and I were visiting NYC and when we got back to our hotel room, I realized my pants were totally split down the middle! (Probably because they were $10.) Thank god it was winter and I was wearing leggings underneath and a long coat. I wish your jeans a much happier ending! ;)

  14. I see that you really really like these shoes! I have them too and your outfits really open new options!
