I’m passionate about keeping clothes a long time … a trait that enables me to do fun collages like this.
But what works with a vintage gown can get a little gross with frequently worn jeans. A few weeks ago, it occurred to me that my newest pair of jeans was five years old and that others I’ve been relying on are nine years old. This realization hit me as I was walking by a Madewell store, so I ducked in and found a pair of cropped jeans with frayed hems. Now I’m wearing these all the time.
I’ve worn them to dinner with friends …

The theater outing was this Saturday. MrB and I saw Fiddler on the Roof.
I don’t care if you’ve seen this play a million times. Danny Burstein is such a good Tevye. You must catch this production — I want to see it again already!
I also kinda want a second pair of new jeans.

These pretzels are making me thirsty!
