Once upon a time I had the best jeans. Purchased at the Gap in Regina circa 2010, they were perfect. Not too light, not too dark, the right amount of fading, the right weight, skinny - but not too skinny, had some give - but not too stretchy, perfectly moulded to my shape, didn't stretch out with wear. Like I said - perfection.
Then I put them on the other day and there was a hole in the butt. I tried to mend it, but the fabric was too weak and the hole kept growing. Sadly they were no longer for this world. I was bummed (haha) as I didn't think I would ever find a replacement. I tried on tons of jeans from different stores and at different price points but nothing fit right or looked right or was right.
And then I found these jeans! Maybe even better than the originals. They have the perfect rise and rinse, fit like a dream, are super comfy, and can be worn for days without losing their shape (I would know - I wore them 5 days in a row last week!). And can we take a minute to talk about high rise jeans? I know they are very trendy right now, but why did we ever turn our backs on them? They hold in your tummy, don't let your bum hang out when you bend over, and you can wear a cropped shirt without spending forever trying to figure out the right layer to wear underneath. And they make you look cute from behind :) I really hope the high-waisted trend sticks around for a while.
Oh, did I mention these jeans are on sale for $20 from H&M right now? Jeans by H&M Conscious.
XOXO
