White Jeans Don't Care
Apparently, The fashion mag that has high fashions no one would dare to wear other than to the red carpet, tell us that white jeans are okay all year round. What a relief! I do it anyway and wear sandals all year round, too. The nonsense of paying attention to fashion "laws" such as no white after Labour Day, don't make sense and likely originated from commerce need and greed. It gives them a reason to come up with so-called seasonal garb that among the posh rich becomes garb-age later on. Jeans are popular mostly because they are said to be comfortable, but in truth they are not as comfortable as trousers for men and women made of other substances than USA cotton set with classy USA labels. I note that The fashion mag now brags of sustainable wear and inclusivity as voiced by the bob-haired queen of fashion herself. What is hilarious is that while the garments may be as touted, you need to have a sack of money to buy them. What is inclusive about that? A jacket made of sustainable fabric they advertise could cost you thousands. The inclusivity amongst the models is fine, but it is nothing new. Maybe they're paid more now and have higher opportunity. I suppose one must tolerate the biomass of the hype we are fed. But back to the white jeans. I refuse to abandon them until Spring again. I like them because just about anything can top them: a sweater, a hoodie, a blouse, a jacket. And they aren't black leggings. Fall Fashion can be in fall/winter colours, but don't please give me bright green or dark brown. The brunettes seem to have it lately and we blondes don't. The fall faves are fashionable "ethnic" gear and a touch of snake skin. You never see, in snake prints, the dangerous end of the creature. It is as though someone skinned the lowly reptile and all we get is its back pattern in the dresses and tops and pants. Snakes are beautiful creatures with their elegant length and movement and their patterned sleeknesses are adopted by the loomers who see them as beautiful purveyors of Nature's art rather than fearful images of danger. Thus no fangs or tongues are permitted. But the colours are mostly brownish and that's a colour I dislike. Each fall, sadly, the pretty shades of pink and yellow and blue disappear and out come the browns, navys and purples. Black works for me but not the other dark colours. They are great on brunettes who are fashionable with their yards of long straight tresses. Still, I prefer my good old white jeans with sweaters and white sneakers, not the neon versions that look like regatta boats with do dads that dangle and sparkle and have three inch soles. When you are blond, short and carry those ice-cream pounds, you have to hibernate I guess.
