Pants, Pants, Pants, Pants, Everybody!

Spring greens and leopard accents!

Blouse from H&M (forever ago), Old Navy "Rockstar" jeans, Matt Bernson heels, Squasht headband

Apparently fashion’s new bright, spring colors are helping revive the US economy and sales in retail are up. Though I am on a self-imposed shopping diet (it’s not going very well, does anyone know of a Weight Watcher’s like program to curb conspicuous consumption?) I could not help but succumb to the continued rage for color blocking, helped in part by some bright numbers from Old Navy (of all places!).

A little Frenchie, a little Rock

Zara jacket, Ann Taylor shirt (from Beacon's Closet), Brooklyn Industries Pans, Ana Alamedia heels, Leila Rowe necklace

Perhaps it is the transition between seasons, but I’ve also been enjoying new versions of my classic favorites – slim black pants and jeans – and have gotten my new favorite slims from Mavi, a classic pair of straight legs from Built by Wendy and slim black pants (with zippers on the ankles) from Brooklyn Industries. I’ve even wearing pants of all colors to work (gasp, Killerfemme, really?).

Have you succumbed to the bright spring colors? How do your outfits transition from weekdays to weekends?

So yesterday after work I did some shopping. Bye bye clothing diet.

Chicago wrecked my shopping diet

Fluo accents + leopard shoes, ça va?

Today I am in love with my new Built by Wendy jeans

  1. OK first of all, you look stunning. And I love your style so much – those turquoise pants are so cute! You’re making me think maybe I could try denim in a color other than dark blue. Maybe. AND there actually IS a WW-like program for budgeting – really! It’s called Wealth Watchers and I don’t know much more about it (it was mentioned in passing in something I was working on) but it’s here: http://www.ewealthwatchers.com/ 🙂 I’m tempted to try it. heh. Love!

    • I agree, Killer Femme does look stunning! And Wealth Watchers seems cool. I use Mint to track my spending, and a Google Docs spreadsheet for budgeting.

      I did buy a pair of purple pants at Ann Taylor Loft (on sale) last month and love them! Wear them with neutral tops/shoes for work and more colorful, patterned shirts on the weekend.
