Darlings, you know me for my love of skinny jeans. It seems that every morning I awake with the goal of donning something other than denim, but the luxurious feeling that such fibers instantly proffer to the wearer always lures me back in. As an adorer of all things fashion, of course, I have always maintained a rule…the jeans being worn must be sophisticated, classy, and playful all at once; whilst being comfortable enough for me to feel cozy through and through. Hence the reason why I jumped for joy when Marisa of Citizens of Humanity invited me to be a part of a “denim experiment,” and sent me a pair of Avedon Skinny Legging Jeans in the rustic Dust wash. Having never tried denim leggings myself, I truly had no idea what to expect; but I was thrilled to be a part of such a fun project. Unfortunately for me kitty cats, it was an absolute disaster – at least for my wallet; for within minutes of slipping them on I was head over heels in love with not only the aesthetic, but the resilience they provided, leading me to believe that I will be scooping up many more pairs in the very near future. 
Fashionably yours!
Thanks to le sister Tiffany - my photographer - for the pictures.

I'm not a fan of jeans leggings, but these look cute! I could have sworn they were normal jeans jugding by the pics... you look great!
Those look SO comfy!! I just wish that "jeggings" were more affordable!
I love this outfit post, Erika!
I always try to wear something other than denim, but often find myself opting to wear jeans anyway. How could anyone pass up a good jean? :)
Anyway, you look fabulous in your outfit! The legging jeans look great and I'm sure they're quite comfortable. Loving the boots as well!

Oooooh, its so good to see a picture of you in a post! You look so beautiful! The jean leggings do look really good on you. I may have to get myself a pair as well. I absolutely love my denim as well!
You are so fricken cute!!!
How lucky are you. Their jeans are a lifesaver for those with child bearin' hips like myself. Ah ha h
This is my first glimpse of your pretty face - you look wonderful!
Now, I can't help but think you posted such delightful denims on purpose, to tempt me from my no jeans style challenge! You won't sway me from my goal, dear Erika - no matter how awesome these jeans look! :)
Cute shirt!
You look so cute! Love the boots!
Very cute jeans - especially with the boots!
Great winter look! I have nothing but skinny jeans in my closet which kind of limits my versatility when it comes to denim, but I can't live without them! Fabulous post!
the boots are perfect!
cute look!
hello darling!! i adore the bag so so so much and the boots. such a good match. hope youre having an great week! are you studying or working btw? xx ediot
My daughter gave me denim leggings and equestrian boots for Christmas, they totally rock. I love that the look is so different from what denim's been the past few years, with the boot cut. It's a great change.
ah, denim leggings are wonderful! And they look great on you, especially paired with those boots.
so cute in your outfit shots! denim leggings are my absolute favorite clothing item lately. i've been literally living in mine lately because they slip into my boots so effortlessly. these citizens are gorge!
Aww, I love that you're sharing photos of yourself now. You're gorgeous, girl! And I adore your bangs.
It's so crazy, they don't even look like leggings ... I can only imagine how comfortable they are. Definitely want to try them out :)
Hope you're having a great week so far!
Love how you styled the jeans...and I covet your boots.
What is going on, I am soooo confused.
A picture!! Yay! I love how you styled these. I've never tried out denim leggings before either, but now I think I must...
You look great in them...and the boots go so well with the purse and the jean leggings! You have the legs for them...me on the other hand...not so much! :) Thats awesome that they asked you to be part of the project!

Hi Erika!
At last we see you! You should ALWAYS wear skinnies ... you make them look uber rad with the touches of brown! Just lovely!

Beautiful!
Darling, I am in love with your rule: "the jeans being worn must be sophisticated, classy, and playful all at once; whilst being comfortable enough for me to feel cozy through and through." I think that is an amazing quote to always keep in mind when shopping for jeans!! I have actually seen some skinny legging jeans at a store here in Rome, what a unique and fun idea!!!
Also, your comment on my recent post left me with the biggest smile on my face...you really made my day! xoxoxoxo

Those boots are absolutely perfect. I've yet to try the layering look with jeans, but I think I might!
Like everyone said- excited to finally see you!!! You look wonderful in them, I love your outfit! I love Citizens... so yummy. Apparently I "love" everything about this post :)
Love the plaid top!

Oh I See You! Taken from the movie Avatar but only more ecstatic. Haha. I've never tried denim leggings but I have been really curious. Haha

xoxoox
U are so perfect, darling E! I'm a huge fan of plaid. hihi!
♥
they are great...i too, am a fan of the skinny jean!
These are cuter than I would have expected. I just can't get past memories of the 80s with the leggings and adding denim to the description sent shivers down my spine. But I retract that. They're cute on you!
Skinnies are so wonderful, aren't they? You look lovely darling!
And I have a bag in that shade of brown too.All in all, a totally rocking outfit post!
OK now that is a project I'd like to participate in. So fun!! They look very comfortable, too:)
I love the light in these photos!
