Google says it’s the first day of Spring but my it’s 20 degrees here this morning. Mmmmkay.
The 2015 summit on The Boyfriend Jean was really eye-opening. Apparently there are articles dedicated to Gap and Old Navy jeans being not-so-great? I had no idea. (Here’s a funny one called Gap and Old Navy Make Mom Jeans.) Still, the people are split. Some of you suggested the Old Navy skinny boyfriend (which look really nice but don’t really look like boyfriend jeans at all, right?). Others suggested the Gap “girlfriend.” These may fit the bill (boyfriend in the front, still fitted in the back). Still others suggested Abercrombie. Abercrombie execs reading my blog, here’s my two cents: Provide gas masks upon entering and I will consider venturing in to try your jeans on. Anyway, as always, thank you for your input. Crowd-sourcing is basically why I blog.
Let’s move on.
I love this ring.
Chocolate experts hate Mast Brothers? (But those darn beautiful wrappers!)
If you can read French, check out my interview over here. Oui oui! I want a cwaaaah-san! (I lied – switch it to English in the top left!)
I just started reading this book. I’ll let you know how it goes. (The cover sold me.)
This top is really pretty. A nude lip, loose jean (dare I? Boyfriend jean?), nude flat (or fine, heel) and done!

Re: Abercrombie, I'm such an old person all of a sudden. TURN DOWN THE MUSIC!
YES to the smells and the MUSIC at Abercrombie! I remember shopping there in high school (sorry mom for having you buy over priced clothing!!) and my mom always complaining about the noise and the extremely unhelpful (high school) employees… now I walk by there as a 26 year old adult and complain about the music just walking by, let alone shopping inside. I can't believe I made her shop there with me all. the. time. Man, mom's are the best.
My two cents on the boyfriend jean: the only ones that look cute on my are actually MY old boot-cuts, pegged and rolled up at the bottom. Everyone's all "cute boyfriend jeans!" and I'm all, actually these are mine from 2006, but same diff. Bonus: they already have holes and are faded exactly right.
I love that you love intense books.
I am lol'ing over the Gap mom jeans article. My closet is full of Gap jeans and I've had my suspicions about them being borderline mom jeans, but! They're the only brand that fits my child-bearing hips! And I guessed I just proved that point, didn't I?
I know French! I read your interview! Having an opportunity to bust out my French degree just made my day. Thank you.
I'm forever debating the boyfriend jean thing! Will I look cute? Will I look… saggy? Haha! Keep us updated so I can rush out and buy the same pair. 😉
Always, Anita
love how random this post is. great links to share dear.

Old navy jeans are all I wear. Their rockstar skinny is the bomb. Great price and a great fit. Ambecrombie is an overpriced American Eagle. Mind you this is coming from the hands of a 39 year old mother of three who is built like j.lo.
Laughed at your comment about Abercrombie. The overpowering smell in there makes me gag. Between that and the loud music, I can't handle it. They must do that on purpose to keep "old people" like us out of there!
HA! I completely agree about the Abercrombie comment. I went in there once with a friend who had a gift card and almost fainted. Apparently they spray the lights with their perfumes so it dissipates throughout the day!! She had to wash the shirt she bought a few times just to get the smell out….
Jeans are the worst. Currently, I only wear Old Navy cause I'm cheap, but maybe one day I'll venture. And I love that ring. My engagement ring is just a bigger version and it is the best.
Mast Brothers chocolate wrappers ARE so lovely. So charming. And so beautiful all laid out together. I went to the store last year when I was in Williamsburg, and sampled six or seven of them, and just wasn't feelin it. And I WANTED to! I even love their logo. On the other hand, Nunu Chocolates are nowhere near as gorgeous packaging-wise, but are freaking delicious. They're in Park Slope and are starting to show up other places too.
Boyfriend jeans. Yeah I want to love them; they remind me of when I wore only men's jeans in college, low on my hips and sometimes rolled. But they tend to look dumpy on me. I'm encouraged to try Old Navy's based solely on the comments here and on the fact that I love their rockstar jeans.
