Style Diary: Skinny Jeans
When all bundled up over the winter weekends, I like to wear skinny jeans. It helps to balance off voluminous coats, sweaters and furs. My latest skinny jeans winter weekend outfit consisted of cheap and chic finds including:
- Forever 21 black skinny jeans ($14.99)
- H&M sequined ruffle tank (about $20)
- green cardigan from the Limited (about $25 on sale)
- blue/black tweed check chain purse from Top shop (can’t remember the price but maybe under $50)
- fur stole (found at a thrift store for $2)
- necklace – bought at a Korean boutique
I love that this fur stole costed $2 and that I can wear it on top of all my cardigans and blazers.
I am jealous, I can’t quite pull off the skinny jean look, I just had a baby though so I do have a bit of an excuse haha!
Don’t worry, the skinny jean/pant look is going away and the new trend is bell bottoms, 70s style starting this new spring season 🙂
Thrift store fur is such a great find- I took an old fashioned (but good condition) mink coat I found at a local thrift store, cut it apart and laid it flat, and backed it with velvet, and now I have the kind of fur throw blanket that normally costs hundreds or even thousands, and all it took was $20 and a few hours of sewing. It feels like a dream in the winter, too.
WOW! I’m seriously impressed. I love DIY but have no sewing skills. Your fur throw blanket sounds seriously fab!
ok so I love this look but i’m horrible at wearing heels, and find them uncomfortable, plus in maine it’s either icy, snowy, or muddy most of the time and i dont want to ruin them! what shoes should i wear with skinny jeans? i’ve been wearing flats and boots.
I’m totally coveting your thrift store find!!!
Yea, it proves that fashion doesn’t have to be pricey to be fabulous. Thanks for the comment!
I usually only wear the skinny jeans when I want to wear tall boots….by the way, are those all your shoes in the background? 🙂
That’s my shoe closet, yes. I built it from Ikea parts and painted it fuschia pink. But that’s actually not even my entire shoe collection. I should be embarrassed to admit that but whatever.
