Okay.
Now on to the Pinterest inspired outfit.
I bought these jeans at the beginning of the summer, and they were on crazy sale.
I guess nobody was wanting to buy jeans when it felt like the surface of the sun outside.
And since it was like 120 degrees all summer, this is the first time I’m wearing these jeans.
Because of this, I feel the need to scream the following from the mountain tops:
THEY WERE $12.80!
TWELVE DOLLARS AND EIGHTY CENTS.
If I knew how to say it in Spanish, I would, just for fun.
That’s right people.
These are some muy cheapo pantalones.
And I promise you I would love these jeans even if they had been $120.80….
but I love them SO MUCH MORE because they were such a deal.
Plus…I bought down a size in these jeans.
Which, as you ladies know, is like the BEST. FEELING. EVER.
I actually contemplated the idea of leaving the long size sticker that was going down the side of the jeans on “accidentally” just so somebody might see it.
Oh, I kid.
Kind of.
Striped T: GAP outlet
Trouser Jeans: GAP outlet
Orange necklace: Sam Moon
Orange Belt: The LOFT
I just did some calculations in my head (who am I kidding, I got out the calculator), and this WHOLE OUTFIT (including the cute Target wedges you can’t see that I got for $5.98) is totaling up at just around $60.
Sometimes I surprise even myself.

If you are interested in an orange necklace, I’ve found a couple of options for you.
There is this one for only $14!
Or if you really want to make a statement, what about this orange bib necklace?
I don’t think I could pull this one off (I’m thinking you might need to be smaller chested for this to look good), but I really like it!
And if you are interested in a trouser jean, then I LOVE these from GAP.
They are on sale for $39.99! And…I think they are an additional 30% off of that if you buy them by 10/02 and enter the code THANKYOU!
The only problem is, the inventory is small and at this time you have to be a 00 (we all hate you)
or a 6.
or a 6.
If this is YOU, I would snatch up these jeans!
If it’s not you and you want these jeans, check back online throughout the day. I’ve found that sometimes new sizes pop up during the day as they get re-stocked!

(Lots of trouser jeans out there are too high-wasted for my liking, but these look perfect.)
And just in case you want the whole look, here’s a navy striped t-shirt from J. Crew on sale for $34.50.
That’s it for today.
I wish all of you a $12.80 pair of jeans in a size smaller than you normally wear before you die.
That’s some good stuff.
MUY bueno.

Those jeans are super cute! I love a trouser jean with a nice wide leg. Fabulous! Just fabulous! Love you 🙂
Julia says
I think you got such a great deal because no one else can fit in those tiny jeans. You look fabulous!
Sarah Tucker says
I love those trouser jeans! I wear mine all the time. So comfy! Every Wednesday I do a 'What I Wore Wednesday' blog post and you've inspired me to look to Pinterest for my outfits! It's amazing what I find in my own closet!

You look so cute — you look great in jeans, for sure. And now I need an orange necklace.
Tracy says
I have everything but the necklace! Any excuse to visit Sam Moon!
