RIP Ripped Jeans
My favorite pair of jeans happen to be my oldest, too. Shocking but true. A pair of Paper Denim & Cloth from 2003, they were the perfect length for flats and soft as velvet. Notice how I'm speaking in the past tense now? I put them on this morning and felt a cool breeze under my right butt cheek; positioning myself with my back to the mirror and bending over, I confirmed the existence of a four inch tear in a most inappropriate place.
I'm not sure I can even make shorts out of them. I guess they could be patched, but is that even cool? I should probably just go out and buy another pair. My skinny AGs are too small for me right now and only go with boots or heels, my other skinny pair isn't skinny enough and make me look hippy, my dark Habituals are too high waisted and too short, my light Habituals have a dusty tint to them that makes them look too casual for most work situations, leaving me only with my Citizens, new reigning favorite pair. Perfect rise, perfect length, perfect color. I wish they were softer, but at least they have stretched out enough to be comfortable now.
