Rockin’ Colored Denim with Lucky Brand

17 Comments 29 March 2012

If you’ve been following my site for even a little while, you’ll know that I have always described myself as a “southern woman who loves sweet tea and a great fitting pair of blue jeans.” So, while there have been lots of brands that I’ve had the good fortune to work with over the past 4 years, receiving an email from the folks at Lucky Brand, pretty much made my month. I’ve been huge fan of the brand, especially their denim, since I was a mere kid in high school. I’ve owned too many pairs of Lucky Brand jeans in the past 10 years to count, so I jumped at the opportunity to out a few new items from their spring line – especially their colored denim.

I took an opportunity to rock a pair of the Colorful Charlie Capri Jeans in “holiday red” with a black off-the-shoulder top and my Kim Kardashian heels (no really, they’re from her line – don’t judge me) when I went wedding dress shopping a couple of weeks ago! I love these jeans – they are cropped so they hit at the ankle (much like the pair that Duchess Kate was seen wearing with the Olympic Team in London) – which makes them look great with heels or with flats.

I’ve also paired these same red jeans with a black tank and a 3/4 length sleeved black blazer for a business meeting in LA. Currently I’m on a quest to find a turquoise top to wear with these pants, because I love color-blocking and I think it could make for a really fun, bold look. My next purchase is definitely going to be these same exact jeans, but in bright blue. I’m obsessed. (Pardon the grainy iPhone photo).

I actually went into my local Lucky store to grab these next pair of jeans because I wanted to be able to look around at all of the different styles, and try on a few different pairs before I made a commitment. I immediately picked up a pair of the Lola Skinny Jeans (don’t be fooled by the name, they are actually a “curvy” fit) and when I tried them on, it was love at first sight. The dark wash made them very flattering on me, and they even had a bit of a stretch to them. Interestingly enough, I had to go a size down in these, but hey, I won’t complain.

I love these jeans because the dark wash makes them so versatile – I can wear them with a fancy-schmancy top or I can just go with a t-shirt and jeans. I kind of mixed the two here – I styled them with a black v-neck t-shirt, a black knit cardigan, a purple scarf, and my L.K. Bennett Maddox Wedges. What do you think?

Even better – the new summer line hit the website as of today – so there are all kinds of new items to check out over there. I’ll be on my honeymoon in Bora Bora at this time in 6 months, so all I can think when I see the new line is “Oh, how perfect would that be for the honeymoon!” Like this silk Dale Hope Corrine Dress – how gorgeous is this?

I’ve been drooling over some of the awesome accessories like the floppy straw hat, turquoise necklaces, and colored skinny belts. I’m also really excited to see the colored denim trend move into shorts – they have lots of brightly colored shorts now gracing the pages of their site as well.

So what do you think? Are you as obsessed as I am?

Disclosure: Lucky Brand provided me with some clothing to facilitate this review – but opinions are 100% my own.

    Ok, I MUST have a pair of those red jeans, but I think I might want them in blue even more. Decisions, decisions. What a fun post! Thanks!

    You are adorable in those Erika! It’s always nice to see a real woman and not a model in their clothes (not that you aren’t absolutely gorgeous) because then I feel like it’s ok for me to buy them, too. Helps to know what can and can’t be pulled off in my early thirties, kwim?

  3. Libby says:

    Ok so I haven’t been brave enough to try the colored denim trend, but you’ve inspired me. Now I’m surfing their site trying to decide which pair I want!

    Love colored jeans! I rocked burgundy ones all winter and am hunting for turquoise for spring/summer! The capri ones look perfect, and the Lola Skinnies look amazing. My big calves aren’t meant for super skinny, but these look just right!
