mini-challenge :: jeans

It's that time of year when our attention turns back to jeans.  Most of us probably already have enough pairs of jeans to get us through another season (or lifetime), but if the need or urge to buy is strong... think vintage.  It looks to me like the styles of the moment really are all drawn from the not so distant past, so this is the perfect time to head to the thrift store instead of the mall.  ​​

This is not even half of the jeans in one size at a typical thrift store in my area.  I truly feel that there is more selection in each size here than at the mall.  All of these jeans already exist.  The resources and materials have been used already.  The work has been done to grow, dye, and make them.  The style of the moment already exists here!  

The mini-challenge is this:  This season commit to buying jeans from the thrift store instead of the mall.  Your perfect pair are waiting for you!  :)

Love,
Jane
