Mom Jeans

Today started as most. Up at 5:30 to feed the boys (okay, so I don't normally get up until 6:30), showered, and got dressed. Because I was moving boxes to storage today, I decided I would wear jeans. And because I got a new pair a couple of weeks ago, I pulled them out of the bag and put them on. It was then that I realized it had happened. I had bought myself mom jeans.

So it isn't as bad as the SNL skit about the mom jeans from JCPenny. I promise to never wear jeans with elastic siding or a nine inch zipper.

But I must admit, these jeans fit a little differently than other jeans I have purchased in the past. Gone away are the hip-huggers and pants so tight you can't put anything in the pocket. I just don't have the same figure I did ten years ago. Hip-huggers have turned into crack showing jeans, and sight pants aren't the same when you have more curves. So my new pants sit a little higher, and aren't so tight. The website describes them as "Classic jean detailing, contemporary trouser fit. A mid-rise and wide leg opening make this one a multi-tasker. Comfortable, yet super cute.A favorite, but more fun." Sigh. It sure snuck up on me.
