Hi.

Welcome to Bumblemom. As my name suggestions, I’m bumbling along as best I can as I navigate a new culture, kids, and style.

Wide Leg Pants for the Win

I’ve really been trying to break out of my skinny-jeans/leggings and top rut and try some new silhouettes. According to the unofficial opinion of random people on YouTube, as someone who is a pear shape, I should stay away from skinny jeans. I clearly don’t agree with that take, but it made me realize that maybe - just maybe - I could try something different and it might look good. As it turns out, Everlane provides free shipping on your first order - even on international orders - and periodically has a free international shipping offer. I took advantage of this and decided to give these pants (and an upcoming dress) a try.

New:

Green Wide Leg Pants: I ordered a size 0 from Everlane, and normally I’m a 2 or a 26 in denim. They fit perfectly, however, so I’d definitely check the measurements before placing an order. They’re super comfy and made of a heavy cotton which works well in Auckland’s cooler climate.

D-luxe Basics White T-Shirt - I decided to give Decjuba a try and purchase a basic white tee shirt. It fit well, but the material isn’t going to last long despite minimal washing and absolutely no drying in a dryer. As long as you’ve got short term expectations, though, this tee will do.

Refresh:
