Monday - Visible and Mingled

Today I will be linking up with Not Dead Yet Style for Visible Monday and with Monday Mingle hosted by GlamaMom.

MenopausalSuperModel asked me how I style my NYDJ Cheetah jeans. You will see one of the ways that I wore them today. I find they are surprisingly easy to style because the pattern is rather subtle. I LOVE these jeans. This jacket is really more red than it appears here.

Red Jacket: Dillards
Blouse: Dillards
Scarf: Chico's
NYDJ: Sheri Skinny Cheetah wash from Nordstrom
Shoes: Joseph Siebel

I think you may soon be sick of seeing me in these jeans. They are comfortable, cool, and as a bonus, on trend. My husband couldn't see the pattern, even when I asked him to take a closeup of them. The closeups did not come out very well, so I have a picture of the jeans from Nordstrom's website. The picture makes the legs look much narrower than they actually are. If you can wear a petite size, Nordstrom has this jean in petite for 50% off. (I wish that had been the plus size price!)

Tomorrow, I will show you yet another outfit wearing these same jeans.  WhoWhatWear has a trend feature on animal print jeans.  I know some women are not comfortable wearing animal print jeans, would you be?

  1. I love it when I find a grew pair of jeans. I say, wear them as much as you like - we won't tire of seeing them. It's fun to see how many ways you can wear one item.

    I like that red blazer, especially the shape of the lapels.

  2. Yes, the print is so subtle, it's very neutral yet on-trend. Love these, Debbi! And the red jacket looks perfect with them. Thanks so much for linking up to Visible Monday, it wouldn't be VM without you!

  3. I actually couldn't see the print from the picture, but it became clearer with the stock photo. You look FABULOUS in them! I think the subtilty of the print makes them so wearable without blending into the sea of jeans. Happy Monday to you! Hugs! ~Serene

  5. hehe Sacramento makes me laugh--cuz she is a skirt lover (as I!)
    Like Serene said, a subtle pattern like this is so easy to wear. If I wore pants, I'd wear them bright and bold!
    Ps you look great, Gf

  6. You rock so much! I love the jeans. I've been hunting a similar pair of snake print jeans, but haven't found any in my price point that I'm actually drawn to. Some day though. I think the red jacket is a great pairing.

    Also re: stock photo - those things are always pinned and photoshopped anyway. I try not to put too much "stock" (pun intended) into stock photos.

  11. Oh, I see the pattern and you're right, it is so subtle that you can play with the jeans in all sorts of ways. Looks like a great addition to your wardrobe.

  13. Well, you know -- animal prints ARE a neutral. (Aren't they? They mix with everything, right?) Wear those jeans into the ground! A great pair of jeans is never boring.

  15. You mentioned us being on the same wavelength and it's funny...so many times I've noticed similarities between us. Another example: I think I own that exact scarf only in a cream color...or at least it looks closely identical. It looks great with that jacket. I've yet to find a way to wear mine.

  16. I like the lapels on that blazer! Plus, the scarf adds a nice fun touch.

    Re: animal print jeans: I wouldn't wear them (I don't wear jeans), but I LOVVVVE wearing my animal print skirts! WIN!
