Believe it or not, I do wear jeans. I have a pair of boot cut Levis that I wear all the time now that we're living in the country, and a nice pair of work boots to go with them. But, my preference for jeans is a comfortable skinny jean in a great color that I can wear with a tunic and flats. With the ornate beading and rich colors on this Ionia tunic by Maeve, my outfit instantly had a very traditional India fashion vibe to it, and I love it. This entire outfit is second hand, except for the jewelry which I made myself. The tunic and jeans are from ThredUp and the flats are from Ebay. Head to toe this outfit cost about $50. Given that the tunic alone originally cost $110, I feel pretty fabulously thrifty, and really, being able to share my shopping tips like this is the whole reason I have a blog.
I always hear women say, "I love what you're wearing, but I never find things like that" or, "I could never afford things like that." And I have to say, "uuuuhhh, yes you can" to both. I know I spend more time and money on clothes than the average person, but this is my hobby and I love it! For everyone who doesn't want to make this a big part of their lives, I'm here for you :D It takes time, it takes effort, and sometimes it takes finding the right hunting grounds for great bargains, but it is possible.
