DOUBLE MINT

Mint jeans are not forgiving, so let's just put that out there in the open. I have red jeans, polka dot jeans, pink jeans, yellow jeans- all of which I enjoy wearing. Last spring I searched endlessly {and ultimately unsuccessfully} for a pair of mint jeans that did not show every imperfection. This year when I saw a pair in the Victoria's Secret catalog I figured I would give them a try. I'm still on the fence about whether or not I've really gotten to the point with my fitness journey where I can wear these comfortably, but hopefully by the time spring officially hits I'll be ready. I'm waiting to wash them first before I do any hemming or attempting to fix knee bunching. Knee bunching is the enemy of skinny jeans!

P.S. are there any other 20-somethings out there that are mildly astonished at the fact that they are successfully bringing back the clothes of our parent's generation? First pastel pants and my strong desire for Keds .. I swore up and down I would never wear acid wash but I'm seeing it popping up everywhere!

  6. Those are such a cute color. I don`t own a single pair of colored jeans- Just black & blue- but I really want to be brave & get some for spring. Maybe coral.

  11. Ooh those jeans are so cute! I tried to find a pair of aqua-esque ones and there were none that were flattering. Sigh.

  13. I think you look super cute in your mint jeans! But I totally understand; I have a pair of bright pink ones that I'm kind of wary of.

  14. I am always surprised with what's coming back! I probably embrace more things than I reject, but acid wash jeans? Not sure I can do those... :)

  15. I love my pair of mint jeans, but I have the same problem. I usually pair them with a slouchy sweater or flowy top to cover any imperfections I have in my midsection. But I love this look so I say go for it. I would love to hear your tips for fixing bunching knees ... they are currently the ban of my existence with many of my jeans!

    Thanks and great post!
