Pants – Skies Are Blue // Shirt – Gap // Sweater – Jana // Shoes – H&M // Necklace and earrings – old and I forget
There was this old belief in the 50s that you if you wore high heels with cropped pants you had loose morals. So, one rule for ladies was that you never did so. Today, this clearly loose woman *what with the Husband and child* is breaking the rule of wearing cropped pants with high heels.
Except that for some reason my cropped pants look like full length pants in these shots. Perhaps it was the fact that I was hunching and withdrawn as the icy wind blew in my face? Made me about 4 inches shorter.
And I’d like to mentioned that I had an audience of six while taking these shots – construction workers that are tearing up our street gave me more than a few eyebrows, from under their hats and big parkas, as they watched the crazy lady with her tripod.
So maybe I’m not loose, just weird?
I’m okay with that.
Next week, I’ll be mixing leopard with plaid. So if you want to do that, feel free and leave your link in the comments of next weeks post.

November 14, 2013I love those pants! I would totally jump on board with this were it not about 25 degrees right now. I will have to stay in my jeans and boots and parka!!

November 14, 2013Thanks 🙂 It's freezing here too. That's why I jumped in and out of the house to take these as fast as possible! And what you don't see is the long johns underneath 😉

November 14, 2013Great outfit. Those pants are lovely!
You're so brave for busting out the camera & tripod in front of an audience. Wish I had the courage to do that with my outfit photos! lol.

November 14, 2013I just figure everyone else does crazy embarrassing things in public. In the grand scheme of things this isn't so bad.

November 14, 2013Thanks. I guess I'm just used to looking the fool so I don't care that much. And thanks. I love the whole satin pants/pajama pants trend because it's so luxurious and sooo comfy too.
