“I believe in Pink.”
-Audrey Hepburn.
I’ve always loved that particular quote, don’t you? But then again, I love every quote by Audrey. I feel like some women really are just born wiser. Then there are other women, like me, who have to have a whole bunch of life “experiences” to teach them humility and wisdom. The last few years have been this way for me. Mostly I try to be happy, and positive. (Ironically, positive doesn’t come all that naturally to me, but I sure wish it did.) I have a really wonderful life, and I know that. But also, some of those deeply sad things have really left their imprint on my heart, and sometimes I just suddenly remember that my baby’s in the ground back in Utah, or that my parents aren’t married anymore, or all the stressful, discouraging, intimidating, lonely moments I’ve had running a business for the last 4 years and I suddenly feel like I’m made of glass, about to break.
Thank heaven for Craig. He’s a rock if there ever was one.
But enough of the heavy.
Let’s talk about jeans. That’s a fun subject, right?
I swear I’ve got a radar for great rip and repair denim. It’s a talent. I’m rather proud of it. I just love jeans okay?! Especially perfectly ripped jeans. Ripped jeans are a mother’s best friend. My kids are going to grow up thinking mom doesn’t have any jeans without holes in them because that’s just about all I wear in the denim department. Have you checked out the denim section of the Nordstrom Anniversary sale? Strong, the jean offering is very strong, if I do say so myself. I snagged this pair for a steal of a deal (good denim is worth every penny, but when I can get them on sale, double bonus.) They run a bit small and have NO stretch so you may want to size up a tick…
And thus ends the bizarre and semi-emotional ramblings of blogger probably about to start her period… (if we’re being real. because that’s when I’m most a basket case.)
