Would You Wednesday: Is That a Mirror in Your Pants?

Spring and summer 2012 brought us colored and printed denim… so what precisely does the fall have in store for us in the way of denim?  Brace yourselves… if brands have it their way… everyday is going to be a party.  Aww sookie sookie now.  Denim takes a cue from the disco era with metallic shades ranging from pure platinum to glamorous gold.

I want to say that I like it because as I think about it, I’m picturing the likes of Gisele and Miranda channeling their 70’s disco divas in shiny jeans and feathered hair, but then I remember that 98% of the population does not resemble that of a super model.  This is when I start to think about ol’ Sally over there, three cubicles down sporting the trend and all of a sudden it’s anything but appealing (kind of like the tuna fish sandwich she’s chowing down on).  This is most definitely one of those trends that could either be le freak c’est chic or just totally lay a gasser…

Why Did You Wear That: I Would Like To Extend to You an Invitation to The Pants Party.

By |April 3rd, 2012|Personal Style, Why Did You Wear That?|

floral printed denimRemember back when I  invited you to the Pants Party?  Well, you knew I was going to RSVP “YES” to my own party.  Duh.  So, I found a pair of pretty awesome floral jeans at Zara (that were only $60!) and paired them with one of my favorite slouchy Kain tanks so as not to look too prissy, pretty, pretty princess-like.  (I don’t like to blow my cover too early).  This outfit is perfect for hanging out casually or could be a great date outfit with some strappy heels and shiny accessories.  I opted to lounge in the sunshine and slip my shoes off.  I “topped” it off with a big ol’ top knot.
