in the jeans

calivintage j brand jeans swedish hasbeens

so whenever i get something i really really like, i usually wear it for like a week straight. i suppose that’s kinda gross, but it’s actually a good sign, because it means i’ve found something good. which is probably why i’m wearing my brand new j brand jeans along with my swedish hasbeens for the second day in a row. i just changed up the look a little bit with a nautical theme and topped it off with this adorable rabbits brooch i got from oh my cavalier! i only recently discovered her little shop and i’m already considering a few more purchases!

if you haven’t noticed, i’ve definitely been in shopping mode since the weather changed and the springtime started. but since i’ve already dropped a bit of cash on “investment pieces,” i’m now switching gears and getting really excited about some major thrifting. i think i’m going to spend the rest of my afternoon driving all around the east bay checking out what they’ve got in store on the racks of all my favorite thrift stores.

hat: vintage straw boater
shirt: rodarte for target
jeans: j brand 210 the oslo in indigo
brooch: oh my cavalier! dancing rabits
clogs: swedish hasbeens peep toe super high in mustard

  1. This is so cute and those jeans are fantastic! All I want in life are a pair of amazing dark denim high-waisted jeans. <3

  2. question- how does you boater stay on your head? mine keep falling off… also im soo jealous of your hasbeens, i really want to save up for some

  3. Just checked Oh My Cavalier. The art reminds me so much of Carson Ellis, who is also from Portland and does all of The Decemberists promotional art! Thanks for sharing!

  4. these are the jeans of my dreams! skinny, but with a higher rise. LOVE 'em, and you've styled 'em up so cute both ways :) and the hasbeens are adorable. bright and sunny like today's weather!

  5. lthe jeans are perfection! and those mustard shoes-i envyyyy!

  6. Yay! Keep wearing those pretty Hasbeens! I love that you've been wearing them with high waisted jeans. It's such a wonderful look.

  7. That's how I feel about clothes too. If I find something I really like I'll end up wearing it all the time!
    The brooch is really cute!

  8. Ohhh, I also lust over your hasbeens! I really want a pair, but can't afford them…Maybe one day I will be lucky enough to find a vintage pair in a thrift store!

  9. I love all of your outfits! I wish I was brave enough to wear a cute little hat like yours!

    So I have short hair slightly shorter than your new do, and I was wondering if you have found any accessories that you like to use without feeling like you are a little girl, or even worse, in the 6th grade… Yikes.

    I am in need of some inspiration!

  10. Always love a classic, simple chic look! Question: how do you keep your boater propped on your head? I'm having problems with both my boaters! Eeeeek.

  11. I love thrift stores, too! Not ashamed of it :) I guess I used to be back in HS, but then you can't deny the hidden treasures stacked away in these places!

  12. Honestly, I'm usually one of those people who finds a nice pair of jeans to just be jeans, but these are perfection! They look like they were made for you. :]

  13. I tend to overwear new items. It's like listening to a new album on repeat. Sometimes you just have to do it.

  14. I adore the shoes! I'm contemplating getting a pair but cant decide which style! And there's nothing wrong with wearing something a week straight unless it's stained or dirty ;)

  15. i either put new items aside and bust them out for times when i cant shop but want to feel like i have something "new," or i do like you and wear them for a week straight or so! those jeans look SO cute on you .. i dont think i'd take them off for awhile either!

  16. I am glad you found the boater. I think it is you who got me into wearing hats. I need to find some for the summer. The pin on the shirt is a great touch.

  17. Ha, I think everyone's been in the shopping mode since the weather started changing. Very nice shoes! And that hat is adorable as well.

  18. "so whenever i get something i really really like, i usually wear it for like a week straight."

    I thought it was just me lol glad to know its not,but yeah when i love something i just cant get enough of it.

    Those jeans seem a great fit on you,i can never get jeans to fit me right.

  19. Interesting!

    When it comes to men”™s clothing the first thought which sparks in my mind is designer jeans. Anything will be suitable with designer jeans might be tees, shirts, jackets or blazers. Men in designer jeans look cool and handsome!

  20. Thought I had comment on this but must I have been on another site!

    you look great in jeans and the hat pheew! and now with the shoes! I have a thing for shoes lately!!

  21. Love this outfit! I am the same, too, about wearing new things for a week straight. I've been considering a pair of J Brands, did you get them on the site or elsewhere? They look like they are out of my size in that style, boo.
