New Jeans

So I was sitting here surfing the blogging world and I was thinking that I need to post a quick something. I am SO burnt of all my posts about the Drama that is going on in my life as I read back through my last few journals, that I bet you all are thinking Amen to that sister!! Now I am not discounting everything that has been going on, but I need to throw a fun post in every now and again don't ya think?..hehe


So today is on a lighter note.....


I am the type of person who MUST have a weird body type, because I can not just go to any old store and buy a cute pair of jeans and then go on about my day. In High School I used to love the way Gap jeans fit, however my family was not in the let me drop $50 on a pair of jeans for my teenage daughter income bracket so I might have had like 1 pr....But I LOVED them. So as time went on and I got into college and made my own money I found myself still on that level..hehe Go figure, it was my money I was spending now...


Anyhoo so in college and after I dabbled with Old Navy jeans and really anything that would be long enough to ensure that whispers as I walked by would not be about my high-waters, just about another one of my flaws..hehe


So a couple of years ago I discovered Levi 515....Yes I DO realize that I didn't really discover them and I am sure they have been around for centuries, but to me it was like a little piece of gold. I do believe that Trina enlighten me to this yummy pair of pants because as a tall lady herself I wanted to know where she got her jeans. And so my love affair with this style began...


So, anyway long story short I went to JCPenny's the other day to pick up another pair. I had Hailey with me and really she was being pretty good in the dressing room, but I knew we had a lot to accomplish that day and spending tons of time on something that I knew I like seemed futile. So I purchased the jeans and we went on our way.


The next day I slid my jeans on in a hurry because we were running a tad late on getting the boys to school..I ripped ALL the tags off and we headed out the door.


So about an hr. later I was chatting on the phone with Ms. Trina and I was pacing around the house..Habit that I found myself doing as I chat on the telley..so I was in my room and I have a full length mirror on the back of my door. Hailey likes to follow me around as I do my marathon walking and shut the door behind us. So I found myself standing in front of my mirror and decided to thoroughly check out my new jeans..I know a little late. Anyway I liked the fit and of course the length and then I turned around to check out the back and I was SHOCKED as to what I saw.......


Of course we all know that the style these days is for jeans to look faded in certain areas and dark in other..personally I really don't care for the look, but I was not consulted on the matter..hehe


So as I looked at my jeans there was some definite fading and the way that the fading was designed and WHERE the fading was designed made me look well I will let you see for yourself and let you make the call.....

Now I realize that this might be a little hard for you to see, but if you focus on the middle of the jeans and the contrast to the pockets of the jeans I think you will get the picture and see the dark V that I am talking about. And then imagine them on a body where there are no wrinkles and pulled tight...

I was like "No-No-NO"....I told Trina about my little discovery and the fact that I had just left the house and went out in public like this. I quickly took them off and snapped a pic and then emailed her to see if maybe it was all in my imagination and it didn't really look like I just came from a gym where I worked out way too hard and I was sweating in places that obviously didn't get dried off and my jeans were now showing the world what style of undergarments I was wearing...

But she confirmed it and I do believe her exact words were.."Oh no, you HAVE to take those babies back!"

So cut to me 15 mins later digging through the outside trash because I had just put the tags in the trash and took it out before I made my little discovery...Sigh

Gotta love fashion these days!!!
