Today is a rainy day. In fact, it made me NOT want to get out of bed but just snuggle with the girls and watch TV. I actually think Princess Sparkles would've gone for that (though we would've had to watch her cartoons), but Pigtails would've wanted to run around so that probably wouldn't have worked anyway.
Obviously these pictures were not taken today. I took them over the weekend in preparation for my "3 Ways to Wear" post. I love my skinny red jeans, but I will say I was intimidated by them. What do you wear with them? Surprisingly I found that they're actually quite versatile. Here are some things I tried...
BRIGHT COLORS
- you can wear a bright cardigan like this sunny yellow one. Or I'm thinking even aqua or purple might pair nicely with it. If that's too intimidating, you can always just use an accent piece like a purse or statement necklace (turquoise would be lovely!).
PATTERNS
- I wore a blue and white gingham shirt from Old Navy. But in the past I also paired a black and white polka dot shirt, a navy/white striped shirt and a striped tan and black shirt with some red pants (check those out here and here).
NEUTRALS
- obviously white, black and tan are fabulous with red. In fact, I kept gravitating toward my white shirt. I decided to try olive, and despite my fear that it might be slightly "Christmas-y," I just went for it.
Anyway, red jeans are fun and I think everyone should at least try them! Plus you can wear them in spring or fall, or rainy days in spring that seem like fall!

I love the first one most (though the others are nice too) - it's so summery and fresh, it makes me happy just looking at it :)
Thanks so much for the inspiration! I have a pair of red cords that I love but don't wear as often as I would like to. I'm going to try out some of your ideas!!
you are totally rocking your red jeans. They look really great. I didn't think Christmas at all with the neutrals, it looked great. I'd like some bright jeans. I used to have an amazing pair of purple jeans, they were amazing.
i prefer the first one! really nice! love colors!
I've been looking for red jeans...so cute!

i like it with the yellow cardigan, so summery! x
Love the first outfit. I've really grown to love colour blocking in the past few months, and I love seeing all the brights mixed together!

Love the pants! I have been searching for a pair of bright pants like this. I've never heard of the Little Big store where you got yours. All 3 ways you styled are great.
Nice tips!!!

I absolutely love them paired with the yellow cardi! Now, I want to get some and pair them with my aqua one. Grrr... I can't wait for this spending freeze to end already!
I love the idea of pairing them with patterns - what a great bold look!

it's hard to say which is the best, I have to say you wore those jeans three equally fabulous ways! although I am partial to the styling with the bright yellow cardigan! way to get over your intimidation, because you are working those red skinnies, girl!
Red jeans are on my wish list - love the way you styled them!

I like the red pants. I think the outfit with the gingham top is my favorite.
I really love this post. I've been wanting some red jeans but haven't been sure how I would wear them.

Thanks for this. I have been sitting on a pair of red jeans for a few weeks now not really sure what to DO with them. (They were a great idea in theory.) Also how did you manage to pair yellow and red without looking like mustard and ketchup? I am impressed!
I love colourful pants- so much fun! I especially love how you styled the third outfit with the neutrals- great colour mixing! Ugh it's been rainy for the past days here as well.
Love the red pants! I think my fave version is the bright one. :) I think red pants actually have great potential but then I really love bright colors.
Love your red jeans - I've been looking for a pair (much to my thighs' chagrin) but no luck yet. I love all the looks, but especially the first and third.
I absolutely want a pair of red jeans, and I love how you paired them with the bright yellow cardigan!!
I want those jeans! i desperately need a pair, pronto!
Chic on the Cheap
OMG! I die for the first outfit! All those pops of amazing colors...and you look so stunning! I need to wear my red jeans more, I always get so inspired when you wear yours!!!
ill take the first one since im a yellow fan=)but i would wear the 2nd pic's shoes!=)
I love the first picture... I think I'm ready for Spring, because I keep gravitating towards yellow and orange :) very CUTE!
Love this! I have a pair of bright red, almost orange pants and they are always so hard to style, thank you for the tips/ideas!
Love all 3 looks. They are all so cool.
I am loving my capri red pants too. I keep adding more and more combos to my list with them. Not sure if the $14 pair I own is going to last that many combos but we shall see.

I would not mind a pair of red or even yellow jeans. Both are a great colour combination on you! ;)
Great outfits! I like the first and second outfits especially, so bright and cheery. I like red jeans too but I have yet to find the right pair. And I am not sure if red jeans is me anymore, the last time I wore one was 20 years ago, seriously

Three things I have learned from following you:
Pop the color! Accessorize! Get cool shoes!
I don't have any colored pants, which makes me seem like an ultra boring, conservative person -- that could not be farther from the truth. I'm more minimalist when it comes to dressing, I know, but I wish that I was more of a risk taker. Sometimes, my style seems so dull, and that makes me sad.
Then I remember that I have the best, most outlandish personality EVER, and I get happy again.

And you rock all three ways. So cute.
Oh! I love all three ways!

I had noooooo idea that I wanted red jeans ... thanks for letting me know!!!
I love the jeans with that yellow top! Amazing! I would be too scared to even purchase red jeans..but you are so rocking them!
The bright color choice is always a good look! The shoes in picture two are fabulous. I need a close-up or I'll just search for them. The olive with the red makes perfect sense. Love the three ways I may have to try it out myself.
First I thought my favorite was the last one, then I thought it was the first one, then I thought it was the middle one and now I just can't decide. You look great in all of these!
Come take a look inside A Working Mom's Closet
Cute! that second look is so me! (I have a black and white checked blouse I practically live in). Now to find some red pants or jeans. I am loving the look Claire!
