Cold Weather Maxi

So I'm really really in love with my skirt. I got it from Nordstrom about a week ago, along with this really cozy cardigan I'm wearing. Unfortunately, I still have the chills so I only had this outfit on for a little while today before having to change into something warmer for my walk to class. I'll definitely be wearing this skirt again soon though!

Have you made any exciting purchases lately?

Tall Girl Problems: Jeans

As a long legged girl, I find that the most stressful thing to shop for is jeans. I cannot tell you how many times I've gone into a store, requested long jeans, and gotten the "Well, our regulars run long" speech. They might run long, but not 26 inches long! Therefor I've made a list of all the best stores and brands to buy leggy jeans, at (hopefully) every price point!

7 For All Mankind
I personally have never owned a pair of 7 For All Mankind jeans, because of their price. I had one pair of ripped hand me downs from a neighbor, which were still better than any other jean I owned. If you have the money, jeans from this brand are well worth it. They are expensive, but it's not like they need to be replaced very quickly because of the great quality.

If you're ordering online, it's easiest to find your inseam using the search bar.

Lucky Brand Jeans
These jeans vary pretty widely in price, and not all styles come in long inseams. (Bummer for people like me, who absolutely need skinnies. I'm not going to lie and tell you I am not loooving the Sofia Boot cuts, though!) However these jeans are also of a great quality, and super cute. I love the nondescript look of them, because they can go with anything and be dressed up or down.

Gap Jeans My. Absolute. Favorites. These jeans are seriously an investment. I just recently started buying Gap jeans, and instantly fell in love. Literally every time I try on a pair of jeans now, my only thought is "Well... They aren't Gap Jeans, so no." My mom got me hooked on them, when I complimented her perfect pair of jeans and she informed me she has had them for four years. I was fourteen when she bought them, and she's still looking great! The pocket sits on your butt, whereas a lot of long legged jeans' pockets tend to sag. I prefer the skinny, of course, because it's such a snug fit and the color stays perfect!

My favorite pair: 1969 Always Skinny

American Eagle Jeans I know that a lot of people don't shop at American Eagle anymore (at least, in my age group) because it tends to be geared towards high school/junior high girls. I, however, always like to check them out for special jems if not for basic tanks. Since my younger days, I've found that their jeans are of a pretty great quality for their price, and the fit is amazing as well. My other favorite pair of go-to jeans are a pair of dark wash, high-waist jeans, which I was surprised to find at AE.

There you have it! I hope this post is useful to some of you! Thanks for checking in, and Happy Friday!! ~ Kenzie.
