Barrel Jeans

I was beginning to think that barrel jeans just weren’t in the cards for me. That was, until I stumbled upon this dreamy pair. Not only are these jeans the epitome of cool, but they almost feel as soft and spacious as a pair of sweatpants.

I’ve recently come to the realization that I no longer have a tolerance for uncomfortable clothes. This sounds like an obvious statement, I mean, who loves uncomfortable clothes? You know those old cliches, beauty is pain, you pay the price for fashion, yada yada yada? Well I used to be a premium subscriber to those philosophies. It didn’t matter to me if the shoes pinched, or if the waistband was a little too tight. If it contributed to the ‘perfect’ outfit, I didn’t care.

These days, I’ve run out of patience for any clothing item that itches, overheats, pinches, etc. Instead of suffering through another season with clothes that kind-of fit, I’ve decided to donate what doesn’t work, and invest in a few pieces that feel best.

This pair of barrel jeans perfectly falls in with both comfort and style, and I can’t wait to experiment with this funky silhouette all season long!
