Levi Strauss & Co. just says America, even though nothing they sell is made here in America anymore. Sad, but I guess because it is made outside of the USA where labor costs are lower, is the reason I can stay within this budget for my challenge.
I went into the Levi's store looking for a worn in, tailored, denim jacket for a client and came out with one for her, plus stuff for me. For $100 walked out with 3 pairs of pants and a denim top. They were all marked down and then an additional 30% off. I bought 2 pairs of casual pants, a pair of loose fitting, cropped denim trousers that can be worn with suspenders, and a fitted denim shirt with snaps. ( I will take a picture of the cropped denim trousers when my suspenders come in from eBay. I need to prove to you this look isn't silly).
The denim shirt is going to be a timeless staple in my wardrobe. I can wear it with this season's colored jeans, open as a jacket over dresses and as a cute top with flowy summer skirts. I already have a chambray colored denim top but I like this one better. Maybe it is time for the chambray one to take a trip to the consignment store.....parting is such sweet sorrow.
