What are coated jeans? Constructed of the fabrics you typically find in denim ― cotton, polyester and elastane ― they’re finished with a waxy coating that mimics the texture and sheen of leather. In other words…they look very similar to leather without the high price tag. One drawback is that you can’t wash them, but you can wear them several times before dry cleaning.

I found these cute jeans from Paige Denim at Anthropologie (the color is chicory coffee). They’re a little different than anything I have but still fit me like my classic skinny jeans. I paired them with a mock neck sweater also from Anthropologie (they have soo many great holiday thing right now!), It’s thick and warm with a little lavender and tan in the windowpane pattern.

I’m getting ready to head out for my second day in NYC! I had so much fun last night with a new friend I met on the plane on the way here! She’s from NC originally but has lived in New York for 30 years! We ate Chinese food in a neighborhood restaurant and listened to amazing music! Check out my Instagram stories to hear some of the music!

I’ve been walking around with my video camera trying to make a video of all the sights and sounds of New York. I’ll be sharing it with you soon! Have a great day everyone!
