my outfit: trying something new!

Trying something new can be fun... and sometimes a little scary.  But in the end, whether you like what you tried or not, it's totally worth it.  Take these jeans for instance, they are SUPER long and SUPER wide leg. And while I've been gushing about how much I love the look, I was a little scared once it came time to try the new trend myself. 


It never hurts when you get a friendly push.  My girl Linda sent me these jeans after I was swooning after hers and also touting their loveliness right here on this blog.  The end result - I'm in love.


I'm glad I tried them... the thing I really love is that they look ultra modern and chic, but they are just jeans in the end... and even have a bit of stretch to them, so they are really comfortable.  Plus, they are a great excuse to wear the highest heels I own. And if any body needs an excuse to wear heels, it's a boring 'ole stay-at-home mom like me. (wink, wink!)


Have you gone outside of your comfort zone recently?


I, of course, highly recommend it.  Have a friend (or me!) help you if you need it... I also, highly recommend that as well.


And now I go out of my comfort zone once again... check it out...
