The Dream Jeans

Hi lovelies!

Happy Fashion Week! I'm so gutted I'm not there! I was really rubbish with applying for tickets and by the time I got my act together and worked out how bloggers apply for them it was too late. Waa! But there is always next season and i'm going to make sure i'm there no matter what!

 Here is a clean and casual look for you. This reminds me of the chilled normcore trend that's going on at the moment. I am getting really into basics at the moment as they automatically complete any outfit and are the perfect go-to pieces every wardrobe needs. I was always pretty rubbish at buying basics as would rather get a cool pair of shoes or a fancy jacket or pair of trousers etc. instead - but then I'd never have anything to pair with them. I think I mentioned in a recently post but I am useless at buying tops - something that's been changing very rapidly recently.

One of the main wardrobe essentials has to be a pair (or five) of great jeans! I've got a few pairs of Topshop jeans - Jamie, Mom and Joni - which are all great but none of them fit as well as these ASOS beauties. I find with Topshop I am in-between sizes which is a pain, but with these ones they really do fit like a dream! I would say if you're in-between sizes like me then go for the smaller size in these ASOS ones. These are by far my favourite pair of jeans I own and if you follow me on Instagram (if not check me out at @juliaindisguise) you will have seen a fair few OOTDs recently with these on. I can't seem to take them off. The style is called Farleigh slim mom jeans and I really think I need to get a pair in every colour - especially the black ones.

I then chucked my white faux leather jacket which is so soft and comfortable. For my shoes I wore these silver mules - which I think these go so well with the jeans. I know - I need to get over the jeans. They are just jeans after all. If you didn't know better you could be mistaken to think this is some sort of collab with ASOS, but no - i'm just genuinely obsessed. Considering just over a year ago I didn't own a pair of any jeans this is very strange. 

I think this A/W i'm going to be channelling a lot of high waisted jeans, tailored trousers, duster coats and trainers - that casual but cool nineties feel. I just love it. I have seen a couple of pairs of straight cut trousers in Zara that I would love to buy, especially when paired with my (future) Adidas Superstars and an oversized duster coat. I just need to find the Superstars in my size. I've been lusting after them for yonks but can't find them anywhere in black and white. Does anyone know where else they may be that I might not have tried yet? 

I hope you're all well - any of you lucky buggers at LFW?
