Caring for Your Jeans

You may choose to laugh at what I’m about to say and think that I’m making it up, but I assure you I’m not.

Most of the time when I get finished with a segment on TV, that day or the next I’ll find an article in a magazine or online sharing the very same information I had talked about on the show. I’m not saying the editors of Lucky or that Bobbie Thomas herself is hanging on my every word waiting to see what they should write about next (although it wouldn’t surprise me *she says with an obnoxious amount of swagger). I just think it’s pretty cool, and a testament to how awesome God is.

What does God have to do with a bi-weekly beauty segment, you wonder? Well when I got the email asking if I’d be on the show (two years ago this month!), after I finished dancing, jumping, screaming, smiling, I told God that I never wanted it to be a burden. I never wanted to stress about what I was going to talk about on the show, I wanted it to always be something I enjoyed doing and not a new avenue of frustration. And I can confidently say, two years into it He has been faithful to show me what to talk about next, I’ve never ever once stressed about a topic.

That’s because He never fails, and He wants to be involved in every aspect of our lives. He’s not some far off God sitting on a thrown with a baseball bat in hand playing wack-a-mole with us here on earth. He’s intently loving us, hoping that we’ll turn to Him for every little thing so He can show up strong. If you ever want more stories about His faithfulness, I’ve got 1,000 :)

Here’s the sentence in Lucky magazine that triggered that whole thought process. I read this eating breakfast after the show yesterday and couldn’t help but smile…”Boyfriend jeans…are the latest denim must-haves.” !!

Now watch for some great ways to preserve your new favorite pair of jeans!

Boyfriend Jeans for Everyone

boyfriend jeans

Looking for one piece to fast track you towards “trendy goddess” and go with items you already own?  Look no further than boyfriend jeans.

Boyfriend jeans are typically a lighter wash, they’re cuffed on the bottom, have a looser fit (hence the name) and sometimes a rip or some worn in places that makes them look a little distressed.

You, my gorgeous friend, will look anything but distressed when you’ve got a pair of these. Because they go with such a wide range of things from flip flops, to high heels. Wear them with a t-shirt, a dress shirt, a tank top, a blazer. They must be the magical, traveling pants that Sisterhood was bragging about. And because they’ve got a looser fit, they’re flattering on all kinds of body types.

I really can’t stress enough how these jeans work for every age, weight, style.

I’ve compiled a few places with cute options for you to look at: GAP is where I got mine;  here’s a plus size option on Zappos made by DKNY, and for my petite friends, here’s a great pair from 6pm.com

I’m telling you, you’re going to love boyfriend jeans, you’ll wonder how you ever got along without a pair!
