OUCH!

I mean no disrespect. I think we can agree that there is a price point difference between BHWM and Kohl's. I also think the faded jeans that can't decide if they are floods or ankle pants aren't the best look. Admittedly I have an adverse emotional reaction to gray or black jeans that harkens back to a difficult time in my life. I shouldn't be judgmental like this, but I can't help it.

 

I did look at this blazer on WHBM site and think it looks much richer paired with a different color (again, my hang-up) and not a short over long silhouette that currently seems to not be so popular.

Sure, there's a price point difference, and I'm not saying this is the most expensive look, and the length of the skinny jeans should be a bit longer, but I still like the overall look.  On second look, I also think the shoes look kinda cheap, but again, just commenting on the overall look.  

 

And since I'm a fan of gray jeans and think that gray pairs beautifully with the jacket color, I'd wear it for sure.  I also love black skinny jeans and have several pair as they are a go to for me.

 

I like the jacket better with gray than I do with the white jeans, but it's just a personal preference!

I can see a contrast with these, maybe swapping out the tank for a different color and bringing in sparkle with the jewelry.

 


Ooo, I love the second pair, so pretty!!

I like it!!!  Purple jacket makes it.

I don't see anything wrong with the jeans, in length or look. The gray is picking up on the buttons on the jacket and all of the silver in the rest of the outfit. I never understand the "flood pants" comments, as lengths are all over the place these days. Truth be told, I like the look of a little break between my jeans and ankle boots, for example, whether with slightly shorter jeans or by rolling. The second WHBM look shown (with the cream trousers and higher neck blouse) looks more formal and a little "stuffy" for my taste, while the first look says "fun night out getting drinks with the girls" to me.

NAY to both of these shoes.
