I’ll be honest, you guys. I didn’t think the acid wash denim revival was for me.
But then I spotted these high-waisted versions at H&M and I had to give ’em a shot. They looked retro and fun. My friend Brina was less convinced, saying, “You’re going to look like Perrie from Little Mix.” (This isn’t usually a compliment.) But y’all know me– I do enjoy a good challenge. Turns out, these jeans were a perfect fit.
I wore them with the incredibly versatile Express Portofino shirt. A ton of colors + prints, super flattering cut; you need one (or four). Those lace-up Helena sandals (such a great summer shoe; been wearing these guys quite a bit lately) and a few gold Gorjana touches and I had the makings of a solid outfit. Acid wash jeans, who knew?

Acid wash + a biker jacket? Sure. Will it get me my own biker gang? Check back Thursday.

You look amazing!! I love the skinny jeans and yes even in acid wash they look fantastic – as do those heels!! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston
I’m not a big fan of jeans in general, but if they looked on me as good as they look on you, I’d probably change my mind. Great outfit!
Fashionably,

Although I haven’t worn them this time around, I have to say I still really like acid wash jeans. Why did they ever go away?? And don’t you just love how easy it is to make a great outfit with a Portofino shirt? It’s true what you said about needing one to four. At least. LOL!!
