Ms. Green Jeans

Posted in Fashion by goldfacedbetty on January 25, 2012

I can always remember when I was younger visiting the Toronto Eaton Centre — the almighty of malls, being from Ottawa — and my sister and I begging my parents to bring us to Mr. Green Jeans for lunch. I don’t even remember if the food was good, but in my twisted child mind I think I believed that my mom used to serve there when she first studied fashion at George Brown (then located in Kensington and now the Kensington Market Lofts). Of course, she didn’t actually waitress there, but that’s all besides the point now.

Coloured denim, where do I begin. Last spring/summer/fall it was all a see of red, but now the denim has run free from it’s ruby roots and is turning to a more diverse palette. These Rag & Bone denim skinnies combine but two loves, colour and zippers. Moving into the warmer months of spring I’ll be opting for a more colourful wardrobe, leaving my shades of grey behind, for the most part. Let’s style this deep green jeans two ways and prep for the better months of the year. And don’t forget, this spring no outfit is complete without neon, duh!

This year summer is all about the brights, neons, and glow in the dark? No not really, but I did hear about some actual glow in the dark jeans. The inspiration for this outfit came from the lovely Dolce Vita magenta loafers.  You might not think they match with the outfit, but I’m pretty sure this pink on pink is stellar. Lately, I’ve been inspired from the bottom up, so here we go.

 Continuing from the toes up, Elson pink denim skinny’s are organic and are on point with the colourful denim trend happening now.  We will always love the low armhole tank (this season cropped & BRIGHT from Damir Doma) layered over a TopShop lacy bra.  Don’t forget to top off your look with a straw fedora, the newest Mulberry Taylor Satchel, which was recently launched during Coachella, and a handful of chunky rings.

And there you have it, find me this summer cruising around the city in pink on pink.

Kate Bosworth, always one of my fave style muses.  I think the best thing about Kate is her effortless beachy/boho style, or it could just be her hair.  Anyways while she was enjoying the musical melodies of the Coachella music festival in California, I’ve been here in Toronto battling the windy streets.  Get this look and get ready for Montreal’s music festival, Osheaga!
