If you were asked to name three brands of jeans in five seconds, first, could you do it? And second, I’m willing to bet the farm that one of the brands you’d mention would be Levi Strauss. Am I right? Levi’s have been around forever! In fact, they first debuted in 1873 and have been a pretty popular choice for jeans since that day. If I’m being honest, when thinking of Levi Strauss, I actually think of jeans for men. They’re the brand my dad has always worn, whether it was to work, to dinner, or running errands. So in my mind Levi’s has always equaled men’s wear…until recently.
If you haven’t already figured this out, the internet is a great source for fashion. A few months ago, I started seeing models, popular fashion bloggers, and actresses rocking the Levi brand. Most, if not of all of these “fashion experts,” were raving about their Levi’s and how they were quickly becoming their favorite pair of denim, not to mention comfortable, trendy, and affordable.
Since I’m always on the lookout for a great pair of jeans, (I pretty much wear denim every single day) I thought I’d give them a try. I decided to purchase the Levi’s 721 Skinny Jeans. I loved the distressed look and even better, they were on sale! When they arrived, I quickly tried them on, and fell in love! They fit like a glove (go up a size), have a higher waist, and are so comfortable! Plus, I loved the big holes in the knees. It was now apparent to me why all these “fashion moguls” were giving them such high reviews.
If you are looking to add a new pair of jeans to your wardrobe, I suggest trying something new, and going with a pair of Levi Strauss. They have tons of style options, price points, and fits. I think you’ll be impressed! Plus, why not celebrate today’s Holiday, of National Levi Strauss Day, and add a pair of the first ever made denim to your closet?

I don’t know what is up with the weather here in Utah, but I will say this, it completely has a mind of its own. I think it has snowed maybe 3 times this winter, and the biggest snowfall we’ve had all season was two days ago, and there is more snow coming this weekend. While the weather has been unseasonably warm for this time of year, I’m ready for it to really warm up, but that won’t be happening anytime soon. So, unfortunately, sweaters are still being worn.
A favorite look, and probably my most worn look during the cold months, consists of a sweater, pair of jeans, and boots. After a few months, this look tends to get a little boring and mundane and I’m always trying to find a way to spice things up a bit. Recently, I decided to pair a fun pink sweater with maroon velvet jeans, and top this look off with over the knee boots. I have to be honest, I loved the end result! Not only did the velvet jeans give a different look/feel, but I absolutely loved the color combination.
Never be afraid to try different color combinations together. I love pairing two different shades of the same color together, similar to what I’ve done with this outfit. I love the look of red and purple together, or a cobalt blue with a light blue. Fashion and style is a personal choice. Always be willing to go out of the box and try something new!
