I'm Not a Mommy Blogger... And These Aren't Mom Jeans

I want to tell you a little more about me and why I'm here...

Here's the thing. I'm not a mommy blogger, I won't be posting cute pregnancy pics, or perfectly adorable family photos. I'm not in a perfectly synchronized, corresponding outfits type marriage with my husband, in fact - there's not even a sweet boyfriend who I take adventurous road trips with, or try new restaurants. I'm not even this crazy fashionista who thirsts after the next new Birkin Bag, or is sporting the weird new sock with sandals trend (it's a real thing).  It's just me. As much as I love reading and following these types of bloggers,  I know that's not where I am right now, and I know that other people are in the same spot as me and I want them to know - I am here!  I can relate! 

I am a single, hard-working, twenty-something, who loves fashion, designing, sewing, DIY projects and styling. I also love traveling, trying new things, antiquing, watching bad reality TV, baking cookies, being active, and am here to offer a bit of honesty. And if you are a mom, a grandma, a fiance, or college student - wherever you are in life, I hope I can relate to you as well, and that you will stop here for awhile. Because I think style, just like life experiences, transcends all ages, and its good to get different perspectives.

Please read on to hear about this outfit.

I liked this easy weekend outfit, and with my new hair I felt like I was channeling the 70's in a peasant top, thrifted Dooney&Burke bag and these jeans. I just picked out these high-waist jeans from Gap's clearance, so they were pretty cheap - which makes it easier to try out this trend. I like the length of the rise of these jeans, because I think there's a big difference between Urban Outfitter's sky high mom jeans (that seriously only look good if you're six feet tall - stay away!) and a classier length that come in at your waist to offer some serious curves.  

What do you think of the high waist styles out there?

Peasant Top - H&M

Jeans -  Gap

Bag - Dooney & Burke Bag, thrifted (for $10!)

Shoes - Wolverine 1000 Mile

Here's to a fast and productive Monday - Cheers!
