right there and you're1:39out the door now denim I know that you1:42have seen some of the Horseshoe denim1:44that is out there if you want to just1:46step your toe into that a little bit1:48Citizens of Humanity makes this style1:50this is the Aya and it runs a little bit1:53wider I actually uncuffed it for this1:55outfit and I love the puddling that it1:58does a little bit on the floor it kind1:59of gives a cool casual look to it and2:03pairs great with some fun high tops the2:05high tops are from p448 which I'm going2:07to show you here a little bit love a2:09little lace up little gold teal2:11detailing on the back and true to p4482:13they make it really easy for us by2:15adding a zipper on the side so easy on2:18easy off as you're traveling from hither2:20to Yan and a bag to top everything off2:23this one is by think royland the thing I2:26love about this bag so much aside from2:28the typical fabrication that have and2:30the amazing straps that they have is on2:33the back it has that little flap so that2:35you can easily slide it right onto your2:37suitcase as you're traveling through the2:40airport that is outfit number one next2:43look I'm going to show you same jeans2:45but styled just a little bit differently2:46okay here we go outfit number two I2:49promised you I was going to wear those2:50same jeans but a little bit differently2:52so all I did is I did a double cuff on2:55each side kept it a little bit wide and2:57honestly as you wear them this way you2:59have a little little more of that3:00horseshoe shape that you're looking for3:02but again it's very subtle so if you3:04just want to tip your toe into the trend3:06these are the jeans for you now I put3:09this little outfit together almost like3:10if you had a date night where you were3:12going
