today’s lunchroom conversation: acid washed denim

with one comment

would and should we go there?

i recently purchased a high-waisted acid washed denim skirt (from the 80s) with an oversized belt. it comes with that classic bum-flattening effect and memories of junior high. in fact, my first reaction was to tuck in my black tank top, team it with an a pair of payless shoes flats and break out the electric youth hat

quelle horreur!

but i confess: i like the skirt. i like that acid washed is making a comeback. christopher kane’s use those fashion faux pas’ from my dorky dear diary days makes me really happy. 

however, i’m not ready to dress like i did when i was 14.

so me and my acid washed have a date. 

the goal–a modern twist on a stoner chic classic.

i’ll let you know if i have any success.

until then we’re movin’ like a meteorite!

  1. Acid jeans are a hit, I would wear them, if paired with a stylish top. They could be the edge to any outfit.
