Look at All the Pretty Colors
I remember in the 90s colored jeans were all the rage. I’m pretty sure I had at least a green pair, a pink pair, and a red pair. I was pretty stylish for barely knowing how to pick out my own clothes (my mom dressed me well). Then all of the sudden I was sporting my green jeans and some girl in my class was like “eww, who wears colored jeans?” Well guess what random girl in my 4th grade class, I bet you’re going to be wearing colored jeans really soon, and I will be laughing inside knowing that I have my sweet revenge thanks to the trend cycle. I personally love wearing color, so why should I restrict the brights from traveling below the waist and above the ankle?
The first place I looked in my search for the cutest pair of colored jeans was Urban Outfitters. It seemed so obvious to me, but I can’t really understand why. I’m glad I visited their site though because they have tons of cute colored skinny jeans from Lux. The colors range from pastels to ultra-bright “technicolors”. I can’t get enough of the Lux Technicolor Skinnys in Kelly Green. They are almost in the blue family, but bold enough to keep all eyes on me. I also like the Lux Pastel Skinnys in Lavender. Wearing pastels on the bottom is almost wrong, but these jeans make it oh-so-right.
My next stop was Topshop. I never really think about Topshop when I’m searching for cute clothes online because it’s a UK based company, but I really like their stuff. I also giggled a little because they call jeans trousers. It reminds me of how people in the midwest say “pop” and the people on the east coast say “soda”, but I digress. Their Skinny Fit Trousers come in tons of super bright colors. I really want either the yellow or hot pink pair. For those who don’t want to stray so far from the normal jean, their Skinny Fit Trousers also come in cobalt. It’s bright, but not really out of the ordinary.
Finally, I decided to give Nordstom.com a little visit. I was bummed because they didn’t have any super bright jeans, but then I remembered that black and gray are technically colored jeans. I actually have black and gray jeans and I love them. Joe’s Jeans has a great pair of skinny jeans in gray and the best part is they’re called the “Chelsea” Stretch Jean. I love it when jeans stroke my ego. Nordstrom also has a super cute pair of black skinny jeans from Edun. Just like the Joe’s Jeans, they are stretch which is probably my favorite word when I go jean shopping.
Though I’m completely gung ho for colored jeans, I have a bit of advice. Don’t wear super bright jeans with a super bright top. If you do, someone might end up asking you to be the spokes person for Skittles. Other than that, have fun with it and don’t let them scare you because they’re only jeans for goodness sake.
