Outfit of the Day: Age Is Just A Number.

It's funny to me that when I got to an age where I really felt like I was figuring out my true personal style, it was also the age where I'm supposed to "dress my age" like an adult person. But, who fucking cares. I am 46 and I can wear whatever I want even if it's a junior-sized Ramones t-shirt:


Haha, I know. This tee is a large and I probably should've gone XL. I dig it, though. This is the Ramones tee I really want but no. That is not happening. Jerks. This one is probably what I should've bought but dude shirts never fit me right. Anyway, mine is by Bravado and there are a bunch on Poshmark. (Just size way up.) Also, while searching I found another Bowie tee that I kinda want. Oops.


NOW. I want to talk about these jeans. These magical-ass Madewell jeans I bought a few weeks ago. I went into the store looking for a pair of non-distressed dark denim skinnies that I could wear to work. The girl handed me the 9" High-Rise Skinny Jeans: Tencel Edition and suggested I go down a size. I did, and they are GREAT. I've worn them several times and they just keep getting better. They're fitted but really comfortable and don't bag out at the knees. I got them during a sale but I would totally pay full price for these, that's how much I love them. If full-priced isn't happening I should probably mention Madewell is offering an extra 30% off sale items including some great denim


The weather has finally allowed me to obsessively wear my AllSaints leather jacket! I've worn it every damn day this week and it's really proving it's worth. So soft, fits like a dream. For a very similar option that's much less of an investment, this Halogen leather jacket is pleasingly minimal. For a bit more money, I love the look of this black washed leather jacket


I am going to skip talking about my bag because how many times can I bore you with it? On to details instead: 


I was trying to show you my earrings which I got at a flea market in London but they're hard to see. I've got a twig climber in that ear and a little bar in the other. So cute. I'm also wearing my two My Precious Studio necklaces. Yay for handmade things! 

And here's another look at my Rothy's flats. If you're tempted, use my link for $20 off your first order! (I also get a $20 credit.) I really have been enjoying them: 


I mean, how can you not like red camo pointy-toed flats? Or any red flat? Red shoes are the best.

  4. I love your earrings and look! I checked out the jeans and they ship to Canada. Are they worth the cost? I have never paid that much for an item of clothing.

    1. I love mine - they fit really well and have the “magic pockets” which really work, BUT they will eventually have a sale code.

    2. Oops, hit publish too soon. I think they’re worth the cost, but I can’t spend your money for you.
