i’m taking a brief friday afternoon gift guide break to let you all know i may have found a new pair of jeans to rival my love for paige’s hidden hills.  behold, the AG jeans jessie:

a perfect high-but-not-too-high rise, a leg somewhere between straight and boot cut, and plenty of stretch to go around.  plus, it’s sized generously enough i got to go down a size…not necessary, but always a nice surprise.

(also, it doesn’t hurt that they share a name with a dear friend of mine.)

thanks to blake at blake denim here in portland for introducing me to my new best friend.  never thought i’d meet someone even more into denim than i am…but here he is, and he owns a whole store full of the stuff.  no e-commerce yet (though i’m lobbying!)…but if you’re in the ‘hood, you should definitely, definitely stop by.

have a great weekend, everyone!
