Before I tried on these jeans, there was not a single pair of light washed denim to be found in my closet, wardrobe, or any of my previous blog posts. I always thought I had to wear dark denim for it to flatter my figure and look great. However, these Mossimo, light washed, mid-rise skinny jeans from Target changed my mind completely.
I would have never tried a pair of light-wash jeans if I didn’t play a little game called “Denim Truth & Dare”—notice it’s not truth OR dare, but truth AND dare. I had to come clean with the TRUTH of my denim ways—all dark wash everything—and then I had to DARE myself to try something new.
The jeans are comfortable, seriously. I came home from work, sat down on the couch with my boyfriend and watched three episodes of Friends before I even noticed that I was still wearing the jeans, comfortably. I’m sure most girls understand this: Once I walk in the door, it’s heels off, jeans off, make up off, sweats on, hair up—I’m not playing any games. After a long day, I want to be comfortable. But now, I lounge in these jeans, even after I wore them all day.
I love that I can either wear these jeans with the ankles rolled up for a capri look, but if I don’t roll the ankles up, the length of the jeans fit perfectly with my height, eliminating bulky and scrunched up denim at my ankles.
So now, my denim diaries have expanded to new colors, styles, fits, and washes. I’m in love! Be sure to check back for more posts with these jeans styled in different ways!
