White jeans and I are new friends.
Now, we can’t be parted.
Funny how we have a love/hate relationship with pieces of clothing. I have always worn traditional blue, oftentimes black and maybe even grey jeans, but very rarely white ones. What was I thinking? I want to wear them all the time.
The strange thing is I prefer to wear white jeans in autumn and winter. I like a mix of “winter whites” together. The whole texture and tone thing work particularly well with the whites in winter. I wear less white in the summer than I do in winter. I am pale and feel the brighter shades work better in summer; in winter being pale with the whites is simply another tone joining the club. That’s my logic anyway.
Back to the white jeans.
Ok, I am going to say it.
Halleluja, the high waisted styles are back. Thank goodness. No more having to wear a body suit or long top underneath to hide the underwear and added pounds. A high waist is truly a friend indeed. Everything pops in, is held behind zippers or buttons and no one is any the wiser. I would love to be perfect and not face these fun figure challenges, but it is what it is. Rather than knocking myself out trying to change all the time, I want to appreciate what I have and work with it.
So high-waisted jeans it is.
My white jeans are straight, an ankle length and with a slightly frayed hem; like these.
They are an exercise in perseverance to button up after washing, but so worth it.
This weekend, it’s all winter white for me. xv
