Top, bralette, Nasty Gal. Jeans, 7 For All Mankind. Shoes, Pink Martini. Purse, Chocolate. Sunnies, Foster Grant.

When it comes to brand name denim, I’ve always been a Rock & Republic kinda girl. I’m also very loyal so I seldom stray away from something that I like. That being said, I have never owned, or even so much as tried on, a pair of 7 for all Mankind jeans. Well…the other day when I was trying on jeans, my size only seemed to be available in a pile of 7 Jeans and so I gave them a shot. Holy smokes – where have these jeans been all my life!? (Well apparently everywhere, I was just too busy avoiding them) Not only did they fit PERFECTLY, but they have got to be the most comfiest jeans I have ever owned! (They feel like a nice pair of soft yoga pants – none of that stiff denim feel).

I usually struggle with finding jeans (or even pants) with a proper waist to hip ratio for my body type. Hence a lot of times I end up having to buy a size up just to get them over my hips only to be left with a baggy waistline. But not with these bad boys – snug as a bug! 7 For All Mankind jeans indeed – I am a newly converted believer! Styled here with Nasty Gal summer staples (crochet knit + bralette).

What are some of your favourite jean brands, and how do you find they fit?

Bustier, Nasty Gal. Cutoffs, Signature 8 (Nasty Gal). Vest, H&M. Gladiators, The Shoe Company. Jewelry, Child of Wild. Shades, vintage. Hubby’s bolo tie.

Enjoying the last few days of summer in true free spirited, hippie style. We planned on getting lost for the day along unexplored roads. And so I dressed accordingly: floral bustier, denim cutoffs, long vest and gladiators. To accessorize the outfit I opted for a pair of John Lennon shades and my beau’s bolo tie.

Although we spent the whole day hanging outside nothing seemed to capture the proper vibe I was feeling. (And wanted to capture in the photos). Having always loved sunflowers I have memories of running through my grandfather’s endless fields of sunflowers as a child. He would always cut some down for me. But that is a memory far gone for a city dweller. As we continued on our adventure nothing seemed to please the background I had in mind so I said to my boyfriend: What does a girl have to do around here to find some sunflowers?? Would you believe me if I told you that as soon as we turned onto the next road we came upon this field?
