Jean Obsession: Mother

Taking pictures of yourself has to be the most awkward action on the planet. I do not have an in-house photographer to help me out and if you saw the make-shift tripod I set up you would think I was four. Plus, smiling into a camera and trying to pose in a flattering way just feels strange and a bit creepy when you are alone. 

Regardless of all that, I took my best crack at it. Let's just say that they are not the best, but they will show you the new jeans that I may never take off my body. I was sent these from my extremely fashion savvy friend, Lacey, who works at Elyse Walker in Pacific Palisades, CA. (BTW, they are having a huge sale with most 50% off!) Although I have never been to the actual store, you can find me often browsing the ridiculously well stocked website. 

Tank: J. Crew, Bra: Top Secret, Jeans: Mother, Necklace& Bracelets: vintage, Shoes: Fendi

These jeans are so soft, lightweight, and have the perfect stretch to them. The lighter wash is not something that usually flatters, but the strategic distress leans the leg out. We have been seeing so much of this extra flared leg and paired with a gauzy tank or breezy silk blouse, you will be channeling Ali McGraw in no time.

Mother makes a variety of washes and cuts. This particular style is sold out at Elyse Walker, but they have others to choose from. The above are called The Wilder in Adios to My Old Life wash. Love that. You can find them here.

Need to work on my photographer skills, pronto.
