the good pants
back to trying ol' business casual slacks. these are the best trouser's ive found so far- it's so hard to find a slim leg, and i even tried on a bunch at zara but couldn't bring myself to buy just alright trousers for $60, (plus i haven't bought anything from a store like that in so long and i really should stay far away from them...) but these dont have pockets or belt loops! so arg, the search continues.

ps. i have had california girls stuck in my head all week! there's no escape from that K.P.

the good pants
thrifted white top (i think hm originally), thrifted belt, thrifted pants, etsy flats, vintage bag from punk rock flea market

  2. Argh I hate when pants don't have belt loops & pockets!! But these trousers are lovely, I've been looking for a good pair too, but you're right - the proportions are always off.

    p.s. I love the flats (:

  3. this outfit is so work/sexy. There is something about how this top compliments your skin tone that is absolutely amazing! These pants fit you perfectly and the belt is the perfect match

  4. hmm. maybe find a pair that fits in the waist and hips, then tailor the legs in to make them slimmer? it's super easy and there are a bunch of tutorials on craftster.org.

  6. I am loving your pants outfits. Seriously, show me the way to good pants (I know they're thrifted and thusly you can't but I am totally interested if you do find a good retail pair, even though I'd prefer to thrift).

  7. I agree Zara pants are nice but expensive, those are great also, but too bad there are no pockets..Maybe you could try UO ou AA. I saw they have some great pieces but its a bit pricey :)
