I hope you had a great weekend!  I’m slightly jealous of everyone that has today off from work…  Last week was a crazy week at work, so I took it pretty easy this weekend, catching up with friends and playing a little bit of kickball.  This is my typical weekend uniform in the fall and late winter.  I bought this vest on a whim, the day after Thanksgiving, but it has become a staple in my wardrobe.  I think I say that about a lot of items, but this is the vest I reach for every weekend.  

These jeans were also a lesson in buying jeans.  It can be so frustrating to buy jeans because if they fit perfectly in store, then they will probably stretch too much once you have them home, but it they are tight in store, they are generally too small.  Do you guys also find shopping for jeans frustrating?  Anyway, the wash on these jeans is great and they fit perfectly when I first bought them, but they have now become my boyfriend jeans.  (It isn’t all the jeans fault.  I lost some weight after I bought them.)  I love the looser fit, especially juxtaposed against the tighter items I wear.  

Anyway, enough about my issues with jeans.  Happy Monday!!
