blue note

many of you will be happy to hear that boot cut jeans are back in a big way. i don’t think the love affair with skinny jeans is over. but the seventies vibe is still going strong and with it a wider leg on jeans. how can i not love the decade where i transitioned from teeny-bopper (who remembers teen beat magazine?) to college student? so it’s a no-brainer for me to embrace a smidge of fringe now-and-then. block sandals and bucket bags were also popular way-back-then and i love them just as much today. a long tassel necklace is just the finishing touch needed for this head-to-toe denim ensemble. well, let’s add more than one bangle. on most days, i have a less-is-more thing going on. but when it comes to baubles this season more-is-more is definitely how it’s done. so bangle on, ladies!

p.s. the vest is from a local boutique – fabrik. i have it linked. this company also has an online presence.
