wear the pants.

Ladies, sometimes you just need to wear the pants! Most of us just stick to wearing solid color pants and leave the exploring in patterns & colors for the top half of the outfit. Well, if you've got it I think you should flaunt it... confidently! Step outside of your comfort zone and join in on the movement of patterns and prints on pants (#PPP)! J.crew and Haute Hippie are just a few of my fav printed pant brands. The pants in this post are what I like to call magic pants. Not only are they THE most comfortable pants ever (they feel like stretchy yoga/PJ pants), but they seem to create an optical illusion when on. As my mother says, "horizontal stripes are a privilege, not a right". If you are one of the lucky few who have Barbie's hips & backside, then well, you have nothing to worry about! If you are more like me and have a jenny from the block shape about you, then horizontal stripes are usually a thing to steer clear from. UNLESS they are THESE pants. I think it might be because they fold down over your hips and flare out at the bottom of the leg. They are actually (especially when worn with platform heels) very flattering! Check out the link below to find out where to buy them! Happy shopping!
