THESE CASUAL & COOL CARPENTER JEANS ARE WORTH A TRY

Aug 23, 2023daily looks, style + outfits

Loving all the denim options in style right now, especially carpenters! Sharing a roundup below of casual, cool options to try! Love these cool carpenter jeans.

OOTD: TANK ($20 wearing small), CARPENTER JEANS (love the blush ones), GAZELLES (or here & have green ones, & these cute ones on my wishlist), SIMILAR PURSE (love this one), STACKING RINGS, BEADED BRACELETS, STANLEY (the best pricing I could find and so many good color options right now), FAVORITE BRAS (use code RAEK for a discount)

A sweater over the shoulders. A cardigan, 3/4 zip up sweatshirt, or button down would be an easy update to this outfit for fall. You could also play around with the shoes! Adding a pair of heels for date night would be cute and spicy.

If you’re worried about looking like you’re trying to be a teenager, with some of the newer styles (or any style), just add classic pieces of jewelry and a purse. Bonus points if you do your hair and makeup! Also, don’t confuse looking youthful with looking like a teenager, mkay!? They are not the same. Even Alexander Wang agrees as he makes a $425 pair of carpenter pants and you know he didn’t design those for a teenager!

What’s your go to jean style right now?

Recipe is below to save for later or you can comment WAFFLES and I’ll send the recipe straight to your DMs! 

CRISP & FLUFFY HOMEMADE WAFFLE RECIPE

YOU’LL NEED:
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs (divide egg and yoke)
1-2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
TOPPING IDEAS: butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, *sprinkles, peanut butter, jam, *cacao nibs, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, berries, bananas, cinnamon, sliced peaches, fried or scrambled egg, etc.

HERE’S HOW:
Preheat your waffle iron and melt butter over low, if using stovetop.
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk together.
Divide the egg yolk and whites into two separate medium sized bowls.
Add the milk, butter, and vanilla extract to the yolk bowl and mix to combine.
With a hand or stand mixer, beat the egg whites on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Should only take a couple minutes and makes the waffles so fluffy!
Pour yolk and milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir or whisk until combined, being careful not to over-mix. Add the egg whites and fold them into the batter gently.
Heat oven to 250-275 degrees to keep cooked waffles warm and crisp. Lightly grease waffle iron (I like to brush on a little butter). Use a measuring cup to pour batter onto waffle iron, until wells are almost covered. Close the iron and cook for about 4 minutes or until golden brown. (Tip: This is a great time to prep toppings or tidy up the kitchen. If you’re like me though, be sure to set a timer!)
Place cooked waffles in a single layer, directly on rack in oven. When ready, top and serve!
