Day 341: Monday 5 April 2010

I am bravely heading out in the world today wearing jeggings. No shirt, short or skort to cover up muffin, camel toe or arse issues.

In this final month of the Year of Denim I figure I must be fearless,.I must do all those denim looks I swore I would do or swore I wouldn’t do. Not that I remember swearing to show off my lower half in nothing but a bit of 2 way stretch.

Bottom: As I said, Supre pretend stone-wash jeggings, with printed stitching, pockets and a fly

Accessory: Denim bag in motion

    congratulations on braving the jeggings. I agree they are totally totally hideous but your year of denim would have been incomplete without them. I’m so glad I caught you in your last month as I have to admit I forgot to keep track of Year of Denim but here you are, slogging it out. hurrah!

      And thanks for saying I look hideous. I’m always happy to receive compliments.

  5. These are the BEST JEGGINGS! Acid WASH!!!! brilliant! – i wish you could have had a week of jeggings – just to explore the full facet of fright that is there. I wish I could have sent you a denim packing peney just to resolve those camel toe issues – LOVE YOUR WORK!!!!

      THere’s still time for a week of jeggings, only I only have 4 pairs, not 7.
      Perhaps I could do a working week of jeggings?

    Jeggging are big in Tokyo. I almost got you a very similar pair but I thought you wouldn’t wear them.
    Uni-glo also had jeggings which are more like streetch jeans with real back pockets and more robust- The are good hiking pants- i can loan them for your week of Jeggings. They are tragic 80’s stone wash grey.
