I have been doing a lot of online shopping lately … A LOT. I was browsing the Buckle.com and found a pair of jeans that I never thought I would buy.
See, I’m a child of the ‘80, and when I see a pair of black jeans, all I can think about is Glam Rock. (For those of you who aren’t familiar, look up Motley Crue, Whitesnake, Bon Jovi (circa1986) or Poison). Any self-respecting fan of glam rock in the 80s and early ’90s wore black denim. And anyone who wore the styles of the ’80s (the first time around), and dares to admit it, knows the scars that those fashion choices left, and how hard it is to wear certain things, even today, after almost 20 years past the decade - Don’t deny it, I know you still shudder inside when you see neon clothing.
I haven’t worn black jeans since 1989, and every time they make a style come back, I can’t get myself to even try a pair on. But now, I have found a pair of skinny, black, Miss Me jeans, and I think I am in love. The stretch material gives me a flattering and comfortable fit, while the black color makes them versatile enough for just about any occasion.
And besides, they look terrific with my favorite Warrant concert t-shirt … just kidding ; )
