Spring Thing

Hello Monday, we meet again.
I'm hopeful that today will be the last chilly day for a long time. The weather has been fluctuating like crazy lately which is really putting a damper on wearing some of my new spring attire. It doesn't have that same spring feel when I have to wear a sweater, haha
Last weekend I went into J Crew to pay a bill and ended up buying a whole new outfit (hence the reason why I prefer to pay my bills online, grrr). On the plus side I ended up getting a really good deal on both this top and pants featured in the photo because they were on super clearance. I have wanted a pair of silky print pants for quite awhile now. I had searched high and low for a pair that was actually flattering on my frame. You see, I'm not tall and most pants of this style were either too long on me or just made me look frumpy. I also have to be careful to buy pants that don't make me look "hippy" as my mom and I call it, the last thing I want to do is wear spanx under my pants! 
So after months of trying on so many cute pairs of pants and striking out miserably I was so excited to discover a pair of relaxed fit pants that were flattering and comfortable! This pants will be perfect for cooler summer nights or for casual Fridays in the office because there are plenty of ways to dress them up or down. 






Whats your take on the relaxed pant trend?

  3. I love those pants! I don't think I can pull the trend off, even though I'm fairly tall. I've never tried it though, so maybe I need to find a similar pair of these pants in like Marshall's - that way if I do end up liking it I won't have to pay JCrew prices for them (even though super clearance is the best thing ever!)

  4. I'm a big fan of the pants! I think they're fun and different and despite the crazy weather, perfect for spring.

    I have a couple of pairs that I've picked up too, and while they're not the "most" flattering pants I own, I wear them anyway :)
