It's been a really long time since I've posted or Jessica has posted so I thought I'd re-light a fire under this blog(haha funny pun cuz I'm talking about matchstick pants). Anyways I just purchased my first pair of matchstick jeans from j.crew and OMG. they are amazing. I got the overdyed ones and based on what you pair them with they can be very fancy or very casual. I prefer to pair them with flats and a nice cardigan or bright colored button down and they look super cute. They are also probably the most amazing fitting jeans I have worn in my short young-adult life. perfect fit, not too low rise, not too short (didn't even have to order the tall despite being 5'11''), and not skinny leg but not awkward bootcut, a perfect straight leg opening.
It inspired me to look into buying some of the vintage matchstick chords. I looked online and they were on $30 so I was about to jump on the bandwagon when I started to question my choice. Final sale is a frightening thing. NO RETURNS?!?! AHHHH!!!! What do I do? Also paying shipping is frustrating. It amounts to about $11 of money in the toilet if you don't like what you get. I tried to find the pants at the outlet to try on to no avail. The sale stuff when extra 30% but I still hesitated because j.crew only gives free shipping on orders of $150+ which I think is a scam. So I screwed around for long enough that they went down to $20 and THEN they had another 30% sale off final sale items. I found a few other things I liked and after all was said and done with shipping I spent $40 on the pants, a super cute bow hair tie and a nice tank top.
Not bad matchstick chords. I hope you are awesome.
