Slashed leggings are the latest fashion blogger must-have (look here, here, here and here), but I don’t think I’m going to go there. I’m (a) not a spring chicken and (b) don’t work at Conde Nast. Some styles demand at least one of those qualities. But these jeans I could do.
Split-knee jeans$258 at Oak
Spotted by gorgeous blogger Vyque at Fasshonaburu
It would be funny if I wore them with my open-shoulder black turtleneck.
I just might “kneed” those.
Those jeans are pretty cool! I love everything at Oak. I wouldn’t wear the slashed leggings, but Susie’s jeans are awesome.
those jeans are great!
personally, the it style i am passing on is the drop crotch look…
i would wear slashed leggings quicker…
There are very few facets of my lifestyle that overlap with a Conde Nast employee’s.
p.s. Wendy, if you wanted to rock slashed leggings, you could rock it hard.
Whatever is a drop crotch look? Something I’ve never understood, since way back in 1965, is the distressed look on perfectly good clothing. I remember hearing a tremendously spoiled fraternity boy, a Kappa Alpha, say that his family’s maid washed his new jeans over and over with a load of rocks so that they’d look not new when he wore them at Mississippi State. Golly!
Love the jaans…as for the slashed leggings…I think those just look “old”.
I would just look like mutton dressed as emo in slashed leggings (actually I kind of think everyone looks kind of emo in them). The peepknee jeans are cute though!
The jeans are slit-tastic, a better alternative to the leggings!!
Gah. These just make me roll my eyes. They’ll be out before anyone even knows they’re in.
Hey – Thanks for the blog comment.
Haha your call on ‘I don’t work at Conde Nast’ made me laugh.
I don’t know, the slashed leggings and jeans looks to me like a neater version of the ripped jeans and not nearly as rock and roll.
Funny and AWESOME. I hope I get to see the t-neck with these trousers, Wendy B.
i think they’re fab and believe you could totally pull them off (does it count that i used to work at conde nast?). i’d suggest getting a cheap pair and slashing them yourself!
love the jeans, hate my knees. Please wear them w/turtleneck!
I really like the look of these jeans.
I also like your idea—pair them with your top. I think I might have seen that one, at Butter!
LOL@ what Skye said. Emo!!Hee-hee! Um, to the pants. No than you. But, I feel sure you could totally pull them off.
ooh those jeans are quite cool! i don’t think i can do the tattered leggings/tights either…
I love these ones too…. us bloggers are lemmings aren’t we….
“and (b) don’t work at Conde Nast.”
I almost had iced tea come out of my nose. That is my favorite quote from this week.
