peachy keen lickitty jean - be mine.

So a girlfriend told me the other day that she snapped up some peach jeans from the David Jones website on sale for $65.   One of the downsides of being a compulsive shopping sale addict is that everyone loves to tell me about their bargain finds.  Not that I mind of course, in fact OH yes I totally encourage it; but it means that I am then compelled to check out said bargain.. which usually ends in the good old 'add to cart'.  WAH.  Not in this case - as unfortunately these peach babies are sold out in my size (although ladies still available in 11, 12 and 13 if you are interested..... here).  

But, this has now meant that I am absolutely obsessed with peach jeans.  And not just any peach jeans - as there are J Brands, Current Elliotts and even some Sass and Bide varieties in which to tempt me - but these very extra special Lee Jetts Peach capri for their fabulous nude pale peach colour, their super cute cropped length and super skinny fit.  Here is some peach jean inspiration I have complied just to make myself feel even worse about the fact that my size is unavailable:

WAH.  Yes I have stalked eBay to no avail - I can only locate these babies for $169 from Gluestore website (full price I think not).  Think a trip to the city to physically hunt them down in the racks of DJ Bourke St is most certainly called for.

Now - I would wear them with the following fabulous eBay finds:

Sambag 'Helena' beige silk shirt - starting bid $45 eBay here.  Beige and nude is the perfect neutral combination for a gloomy winter's day - add a coral lip and pastel flats

Ellery lavender Pod coat - current bid $71 eBay here.  Lavender and peach together - all I can see are macaroons..

Sretsis 'Ashwin' blazer in shell blue - starting bid $99 eBay here.  Pop a mint silk camp underneath and a neon yellow statement necklace and OH love.

Sass and bide 'Bring it home' neon yellow heels - starting bid $99 eBay here.  These babies are still retailing on the S+B site, and would clearly top off any of the about outfits.  Bang.

As you could very well guess I am totally and whole heartedly jumping on the pastel on pastel bandwagon.  Bye bye POP colour blocking and hello fruit tingle tones.  There is something so sweet and nostalgic about head to toe pastel - and totally YUM.

Right.  So that clearly helped my 'I don't need to buy some peach jeans' mantra that I have been chanting to myself for the entire duration of this post.  Who am I kidding? Glue Store - where is your add to cart?

Let's not forget today's outfit:

outfit includes: Zara cream boyfriend blazer - eBay | Asos swan print nude oversized shirt - eBay | Levi black wet-look skinnies - Myer | Trenery tan two tone leather wedges - eBay

After looking at my reflection in the bathroom numerous times (I was aiming for three litres of water today if that explains anything) I have decided the jacket didn't go with the either the shirt or the shoes.  I don't like this jacket at all.  Bye bye blazer.

That's about it folks.  OH - did anyone catch Being Lara Bingle?  Distressed boyfriend jeans be aware - I am COMING TO GET YOU!
