I tried on a pair of J Brand Love Story jeans a few weeks ago and just FELL IN LOVE with the fit and the awesome super-flared legs. Since I'm not a big fan of spending $180 on a pair of jeans (that's like my clothing budget for 3 and a half months right there!), I've been stopping by Nordstrom Rack every once in awhile to see if I can find a pair for a little cheaper. I must have been super lucky or something, because last week I found the only pair in the entire store, and it was in the clearance racks, IN MY SIZE, for only $50! If that's not a sign to buy something, then I don't know what is.
AND THEN, to add to my luck, the lovely Rose put up a blog sale last week and was selling these Sam Edelman clogs that were too big on her (but perfect for me!), so I was able to snag them for dirt cheap. They're the tallest shoes I've ever owned, and I almost rolled my ankle three times today because they're so narrow on the bottom, but I really really like them. Too bad these are the only pants long enough to wear with them (and I wouldn't mind an extra inch so they'd graze the ground), so I'm probably not going to be doing too much mixing around when it comes to these pants and shoes.
Do you like my necklace? I do. I stole it from my mom's jewelery stash a few years ago. I asked her if she wanted it back, but she said that I could just have it, so I guess it's mine now. Yep, I'm pretty lucky.
One last thing, I copied Andrea's photo location. It was kind of nice just stepping out of my car and snapping photos without having to walk a lot... which is a pretty crucial deciding factor at the end of the day when your feet are mad at you.
PS. Did you know that J.Crew does not have a space in between the J. and the Crew? I learn something new everyday.
Those jeans are AMAZINGGGG. And with the shoes, it looks like you have mile long legs!
ReplyDeleteWow! I've never had such amazing luck at Nordstrom Rack. Or really any luck, for that matter. The jeans are great!
ReplyDeleteSuch amazing finds, Kimmie! As cheesy as it sounds, I can see how excited you are about these purchases through your photos. I love this outfit, love the items you're wearing, but most of all, how you styled them together.
ReplyDeleteThose jeans look fabulous on you!
ReplyDeleteYay!! Getting a great deal makes owning the jeans so much sweeter! They are awesome and you look so happy to be wearing them!

ReplyDeleteI looove your necklace! the outfit is simple but very lovely! you are adorable!
ReplyDeleteoh, hey, legs! I love doing parking garage pictures, too - it's so easy - I call it lazy man photography (not that you're lazy...I am, though, for sure!).
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit. So effortlessly chic with the pearls! The jeans are a steal and they fit you so well. Good buys :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore this outfit on you! I love the mix of chambray and really dark denim, plus those shoes are FAB. Rose has such great taste, I wish I was petite so I could have snagged something from her sale!
ReplyDeleteThose super flared jeans look a-mazing on you! And I love the clogs just peaking out the bottom. Simple and stunning.
ReplyDeleteyou did buy the Love Story jeans!! they look amazing on you and $50 is such a good deal! and those clogs are perfect with it!
ReplyDeletecute & little
I love the pants and shoes. Those jeans make your legs go on forever! I found my beloved Citizens of Humanity jeans at the Nordstrom Rack for $50 because someone had them altered and then returned them. Lucky for me they fit like they were made for me.
ReplyDeleteScore! I am so glad you found those! They really do flatter you. I need to hit the rack up more often.
ReplyDeletesuper cute! I love this outfit! Happy easter!
ReplyDeletehaha, really? Well I'm glad it came through, because I really like them! :)
ReplyDeletebut it IS! I didn't even have to wear my jacket or lock my car and carry all my valuables. and then when I got cold, I sat in the car for a few minutes looking through the pictures before braving the cold again :) So convenient.
ReplyDeleteYes! I'm just greedy and want more pairs :) One is not enough! haha
ReplyDeleteLol, considering how great they look on you I don't blame you! :)

Clearly those jeans were meant to be! They're so cute, especially with the clogs. You're legs look miles long! :)
ReplyDeletethose pants and shoes make your legs look sooooo long!
ReplyDeleteI really like the pants on you. I think the parking garage photos are cool, and I don't mind seeing them at all.
ReplyDeleteMy Heart Blogged
So, yesterday we had a Lord of the Rings reference, and today it's Taylor Swift?
ReplyDeleteThis is why you're one of my favorite bloggers, Kimmie...it's all about the versatility :)
It also helps that you post such amazing outfits all of the time. I love how classy this looks with the crazy heels and pearls.
PS: I will be singing that song for the rest of the evening, so thank you for that :)
Those jeans are awesome on you -- look at those long legs! Have a great weekend, missy! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! Those pants are quite a showstopper! You look great and so chic! =)
ReplyDeleteKimmie, those jeans look lovely on you! I love the slight flare! And those shoes (from what I can see) are just super gorgeous!
ReplyDeletethose jeans are AMAZING.
ReplyDeleteYou pull off flared jeans like a tall girl. Thank you for showing me how to wear my chambray shirt - with pearls, duh! It looks so gorgeous and turns a country shirt into a city shirt.
ReplyDeleteHope your week is as sexy as those jeans. Purrr.
uh-MAZ-ing!! you are the luckiest girl! and you have the best figure, fyi. such a happy post! :)

favorite outfit on you ever!
ReplyDeleteDon't be mad but I'm super jealous of you. Like, green in the face with envy. I might have to enlist my husband in some babysitting so I can go scour Nordstrom Rack for these jeans because I've been wanting them for some time and you are ROCKING them. That's it, I'm not speaking to you for the next two seconds...until I go back to catching up on your blog.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I'll keep my eyes open for you! I'm ALWAYS going to Nordstrom Rack (there are three that I frequent. I'm kind of obsessed) I'm still on the hunt for a dark wash pair. I love them so much! I hope flares stay in style forever and ever. :)
ReplyDeleteI think Emily was the only one who had been there before! It's a cute place. Hope you can make it out next time!!yhr
