My Friend, Kristen (20), my daughter (4-1/2), and I (49) thought it would be fun to style the DNC “How Smooth” TSV Jean in dark indigo to see what 3 generations of fashion-sense would look like.  Actually, we’re not all that different, especially when it comes to statement pieces.

I decided on a casual, yet dressy look for the jeans.  The snowy white DNC cascade open cardigan with the Nordic border felt right for this time of year.  I didn’t want to take anything away from the beautiful border of the cardi; so, I chose the ivory shell with a soft neckline as my foundation.  For jewelry, I wanted something bold & chose the Joan Rivers necklace and earring set.  I couldn’t decide which shoes I liked better…my cowboy boots or my buckle heels. But looking at it again…I’d go with the buckle heels for the casual-dressy look I originally had in mind. 

Kristen loves plaid; so she chose to pair the jeans with a long sleeve plaid blouse that has a mix of navy, red, white, yellow & pink.  She felt the plaid, by itself, was a little too loud.  So pairing it with her navy sweater toned the plaid and made for a nice wintery look.  For accessories, Kristen loved the “Vera Wang” bubble necklace to add a statement & the chunky-heel, round-toed brown boots to complete the look.

Isabella immediately chose her Valentine’s Day dress to pair with the DNC jeans.  She loved the pop of color the hearts provided and added her Crocs to keep the color theme going.  For an added bonus, she also chose a bubble necklace that Kristen made!

Now it's your turn! How would you style them?
