today’s lunchroom conversation: acid washed denim

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!

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