Back in blush and some classic 501s.
First of all, happy first day of spring! Remixing is the name of the game, even for a fashion blogger with a shopping problem. (Ahem.) You last saw this blush turtleneck as part of a super sassy + girly transitional outfit, and these 501s were first spotted as part of my ode to the Brat Pack. Tucking the turtleneck in gives a bodysuit vibe, and beige suede ankle boots elevate the look + lengthen that leg line. (Short girls, unite!) The polished turtleneck and booties play really well with the roughed-up + washed-out denim, no? I love the overall lighter color palette, too– it definitely hints that spring is on the way (even if it was 35° when we shot this look).
Shop the look:
It’s interesting how classic denim is making a comeback; I’ve been a fan of stretchy + skinny jeans for ages now, but these no-stretch straight-legged 501s definitely bring a completely different feel to an outfit. There is a breaking in period with classic jeans; you certainly have to put in a little work at first to get ’em molded to your body. (This sounds labor-intensive; really it just means finding the right size that fits now but will also fit once the denim gives a bit after weeks of wear.) I sized up a wee bit here; after I break ’em in they will have just a bit more slouch through the hips and waist, which is a-okay with me.

Thanks, girlfriend- I’m definitely digging this early spring combo, too!
It is SO amazing how the styles return!!
But I want to say, I don’t consider it a shopping problem, Ashley. You are researching products for us along with helping out the economy!! (those are my rationales at least-ha ha)
XOXO

Haha- I love your take on this, lady! Your rationale is spot on!
The tucked in tank does it for me! Such a cute look. And seriously, booties are the way to go with cuffed jeans to make my 5’5 legs look a hint of long!

Thanks, babe! I definitely love the combo of the girlier + fitted turtleneck with the more classic + roughed-up denim!
Oh hey girl! I was headed to visit you today (catching up) and saw your comment. Hahaha so glad we got that figured out. I love the blush turtleneck. I would have guessed it was a bodysuit styled like this.

Haha, I am TOO! So glad we got it all sorted- silly spam filters! 🙂
Fabulous jeans! I need to by me a 501!
You definitely need a pair, lady!
You are rocking this look! I love that turtleneck on you! Such a pretty color!

You really can’t beat a great pair of Levi’s as far as denim goes! Love the color of that bodysuit. it looks great with the denim.

Thanks a lot for sharing! Have a nice evening)
Thanks, Vika!
How embarrassing is it that I don’t think I’ve own real, non-stretch denim in like 10 years? You do them great justice…
Courtney ~ Sartorial Sidelines
I don’t think I had ordered a pair in years before this, either, haha!
Oh that turtle neck totally looks like a body suit. And yes the more relaxed fit trend has been wonderful as is the higher waist. I got rid of 3 pairs of jeans today that are super low waisted and too tight.
Thank you for the kind words on my blog.

Ohmygoodness this look is gorgeous, it has such a retro feel to it! The Levi’s really bring a staple to the outfit, which is kinda casual but also lowkey chic and luxe. Adore the whole look, your style is literally flawless I swear.
