A second pair of Current/Elliott denim leggings that I bought the second after I put on the pair I bought the other day - they are so incredibly comfortable!

Ooh I'm recently addicted to Current/Elliot! Net a Porter sent me these and their distressed boyfriend jeans and they are SO comfortable and good on aren't they?

^How lucky are you to be gifted something from NAP!! I am totally addicted, too. I won't say how many pairs I own, but every piece of denim I have bought since the line has been available has been C/E. :)
 
I know, I was a bit spoiled! Have you tried their distressed boyfriend jeans? I'd always been addicted to skinny jeans and nothing but, but i'm a recent convert - they are good! Also loving the J Brand major high-rise cropped skinnies - really comfy and flattering!

I actually prefer the Captain trousers right now to the distressed boyfriend jeans (I lived in those last summer). I was previously addicted to J Brand - I had so many of those in every shape from skinny to super flare, though I never tried their shorts - but as soon as I tried my first pair of C/E I was hooked. I also am loving the Scout short this summer. I read your blog entry, and oddly enough, I am somewhat the opposite of you atm. I had never tried inexpensive denim before, and was quite surprised to find an amazing pair of shorts at Forever 21 for something like $25. I wouldn't necessarily take them over my C/E, but it's a great feeling every once in a while to find such a steal. ^_^
 
On the weekend I went to Oxford and picked these two items from Topshop;

Found this amazing Junya Watanabe dress abandoned on a rack with a sign that said "This rack $100 and under"!!! It took me forever to figure out a good way to wrap it around, but i love it! I will wear it tomorrow (with proper undergarments!) so I should have better pictures at some point...

Ooh I haven't seen the Captain trousers so will definitely hunt them down. When I say I haven't owned expensive denim before, I frequently bought Sass & Bide and 18th Amendment (which don't come cheap), but was also happy to buy them in Topshop if I found the right pair so that i'd have more for crazy expensive shoes/bags/etc (which I could never buy cheaply). Sort of like eating salad for dinner so you can have a giant dessert :p
That said, when someone sends you free pairs of J Brand and Current/Elliot, it's hard to go back to cheap pairs at all ;)
 
^I second that!

LOL^^^ at that BRA!!! I love it... but a second question.... How will you wear it?!?!?!

Its the sorta thing i'd see and love... but never buy... well done for just going for it!

Cant wait to OCtober when i'll have money for clothes and shopping again... It's all for house type things just now... although that is kinda exciting... but so much for one thing if you get me... just ordered a £1058 splashback!!! It's purple glass and will look sooooo cool!
