self-portrait challenge—imperfections

Imperfections—Canon Powershot S410

I had a perfect pair of jeans
that I wore
day-in, day-out.

But there are holes now;
big holes in the knees
and two behind.

(It is unfortunate
the store I bought them from
no longer sells them.)

I would wear them out
if not for the holes that accentuate
the parts I want hid.

    I. KNOW. WHAT. YOU. MEAN.

    I’m facing the same dilemma too.

    Yes! My jeans too all get holes in the knees and in the crotch for some reason! I buy Old Navy jeans because I like the way they fit but I wish the quality was better.

    Great photo!

    VERY cool photo. The angle is perfect.

    Have you thought about writing the company who made those jeans to see if they are still manufacturing them? They might be of some help, or tell you what stores may have them.

    I have been havinga jean dilemma lately… I cannot find a pair that fits well to save my life… GAH! so frustrating… I am going to have to switch over to skirts soon… boo to that!!!!

    love the jeans … and the *holy* exposed knees : still a perfect fit, but not a perfect whole.
