Tipsy Favs: Jeans

March 31, 2010 by

Tipsy gals are here again to weigh in on our fav jeans.  Here’s our picks and our comments as to why they hug in all the right places.

  1. Sarah: Seven for All Mankind Bootcut Stretch Jeans: I like these jeans because they’re a) long enough to wear with boots or heels for my 5′ 11″ frame, b) curvy enough to fit my booty well,  and c) expensive enough that I have to cherish the one pair I own! 🙂
  2. Der:  Levis 537s Description Der found that she say is perfect: The Levi’s 537 Flare Jean is a classic Levi’s style. The soft heavy feel of the denim and five pocket styling are the perfect combination. The 537 is built to withstand all of the wear and tear that you can dish. Der’s description 🙂 : I feel like they hug all the right places and look great dressed up or down. BUT, I have the HARDEST time locating them. I had to buy my last pair off ebay because I couldn’t find ANY stores that sell them. BIG BUMMER. In fact, the only pic I could find is on ebay so if your a lucky size 8…snatch these UP!
  3. AK:  Joes Jean’s are my fav “going out” jeans somehow these jeans make my butt and thighs look a little smaller than they really are.  Maybe its the pocket placement or the seam placement but they are definitely worth the price to make things in the mirror smaller than they appear.  Levi 515s are my fav “knock around” jeans.  I’ve had a pair of these for a good 10-12 years and they are my go-to slouch-o-rama, weekend jeans.  They’re like butta.
  4. Court:  Old Navy Sweetheart These jeans hold up in harsh washing conditions, keep their color and don’t loose their boot cut leg which helps to balance out my curvy figure.

Ladies all shapes, sizes, and budgets–let us know what your favs are.

Things I Love Under $10.00

March 15, 2010 by

I think the title speaks volumes here, but there are some great deals and steals that should scooped up FAST. I mean, ruffles, springy color, and fun accessories… all under a 10 spot. Wow, now that’s what I call a bargain.

  1. Forever21, Ruffle Knit Top – I was gifted this at my birthday time and I LOVE it. Perfect under a bright cardi while its still chilly and perfect alone in the warmer weather.
  2. Old Navy, Jersey Tote– Perfect for carrying books, carrying groceries or carrying as a purse. Soft as a baby’s bottom and dirt cheap!
  3. Walmart, Olivia T Thong Sandals– Who doesn’t need a $10.00 girl pop of pink in the form of a sandal for a neutral spring outfit?!?
  4. Walmart, Island Thong Sandals– These shoes were made for walkin! I wear a pair of these faux crocs every year when we Tipsy girls spend all damned day long walking miles upon miles antique shopping in April. No blisters, no nothing… like walking on air.
  5. Forever21, Raw Turquoise Pendant– This necklace falls right in like with the jewelry trends for fall combining the “hottest color” and the mineral look for a very minimal price.
  6. Walmart, Norma Kamali Women’s Draped Jersey Tank – Beautiful draping that could work for officewear or a night on the town.. and UM $8!
  7. Forever21, Metal and Turquoise Wood Bracelet– This is a $6 statement all over your wrist. Style, style, style.
  8. Walmart, Sophia Patent Thong Sandals – Instead of your usually pop of red shoe… how about try sunshine yellow and for $10.00 it’s worth the risk!
