for all mankind.

i'm in love!

with so many things right now...
my family
my friends
chris
scrapbooking
"friends"
amazon

but most recently... i'm in love with THESE!!:















and i justify this purchase in several different ways.
1. i haven't eaten out at all this week (and barely at all last week.)
2. i've never spent this much on jeans.
3. i've been using a lot of coupons lately on stuff (saving money, and one could say this money i've saved has added up to form an imaginary account, which has paid for the jeans, so in essence... these jeans were free!!
4. i bought a second pair of jeans with these ones because they were American Rag (my fave brand) and on sale... and they rang up for a little over $10!!!!!!!!!! woooo hooo!!
but most of all...
4. i've been working my ass off every day for the past couple of weeks!! i think i deserve a little splurge, don't you? (mom, don't answer that.)

yay for love ♥ .

Aim, you enjoy those adorable jeans..(My confession: I own 5 pairs of Seven jeans, I know i have problems) My philosophy: if you are going to make a fashion splurge - buy really hot jeans, mama because you'll get the most wear out of them than any other fashion item!

I can totally remember being in college when Sevens (those were kinda the first huh?) and the concept of the $100 jeans first became really popular. I thought they were ridiculous. And that you didn't need to spend that much. I hated 'em.

Well I was anti. Was.

And slowly, I cracked. I now have Rock & Republics, Citizens of Humanity (my favorite!!!), Paige Premium Denim, and Joes. What can I say?!

Really though, you wear jeans SO much that the 'cost per wear' becomes pennies. It IS worth it. And like you, I mix my high with my low. One day is $200 Citizen jeans. The next its $18 Forever 21 jeans.

Good for treating yourself! xo
