I must getting mellow because I'm wanting yellow ... jeans, that is
Lee straight leg jeans in Sunlight Yellow.
Generally I stay away from color on the lower half of my body. Prints, too. I don’t need purple pansies drawing attention to my rear, an area that I prefer to minimize.
Lately, though, I’ve been thinking about yellow jeans. I’ve been in local stores a lot the past couple of weeks and everywhere I turn I see colorful jeans. Hot pink, sunburst yellow, grass green.
Now I’ll be the first to tell you that I’m not going to slip into jeans that drip neon color. In fact, I usually try to buy the darkest wash possible.
I’m just ready for something different. It is spring, after all. Many of the colorful jeans I’m seeing are super-skinny legs. Ahh, yes, legs. That’s another area I try to minimize, thus a closet full of dark jeans and black pants.
Anyway, I may have found the answer. For spring, Lee is offering soft yellow jeans in a straight leg style. Lee says you can treat soft yellow almost as a neutral. It looks great paired with green, brown, black and red.
It’s possible these jeans will give me the color I want without hugging everything from my ankles up. Here’s another plus: Lee Colorwash straight leg jeans in Sunlight Yellow retail for $44.
Such a deal! And, honeslty, that’s about all I’m willing to pay for a pair of yellow jeans because this yearning for color probably will pass soon.
