Vintage Levi's Denim

Jumping for joy today for a few reasons. 1) I am thrilled that vintage Levi's have made a come-back in the form of high waisted shorts and 2) I just got a pair in the mail!

I am not trendy by any stretch of the imagination. Every so often there's a trend that comes along which is totally in my realm of style which I usually describe as 'plain jane'. I'm a t-shirt and jeans kinda girl, but I like to get gussied up for the occasional date night.

Vintage Levi's are so my thang. Here's why...

// Light wash denim (that isn't totally destroyed) is so hard to come by these days, and just happens to be my favorite. Vintage Levi's were made in an abundance of old school light washes.

// High waisted, but not crazy high waisted. Think Christie Brinkley in the 90s. Honestly I couldn't wait for a pair of denim shorts that didn't come with the everyday risk of exposing my crack.

// Relaxed fit. I love a good pair of skinny jeans but come on! It seems like that's all they make anymore. As soon as I put these Levi's on I felt like I had owned them for years. (Well, someone did anyway...).

The most annoying thing about trying to find the perfect pair of vintage Levi's is that no one seems to divulge where they found theirs.

Before I tell you where I got these wonderfully cozy shorts I should preface by saying that this is not a sponsored post. The curator is just awesome, deserves a shout out and I want to spread the Levi's love. ♥

This wonderful gal who runs an Etsy shop finds vintage Levi's and customizes them to exactly your preference and measurements. Amazing!

She had the patience to cater to my nit-picky requests and turned out the exact perfect pair for me in lightning speed. Funny how an old pair of shorts can make me so flippin' happy.

PS - Yes Mom, I actually paid someone for this pair of torn and frayed Levi's. Love you.
