I usually live in skirts and dresses in the summer and this summer will be no exception. But some days you wake up and say, I don't want to shave my legs today! So, I give myself a break with some pants every now and then! Plus, these are my favorite, if you've been reading my blog awhile you know how much I love these pants. I just really felt like I needed them today. We've been hit by the allergy fairy at our house which means the Pants Monkey and I are groggy and cranky most mornings lately, so today I needed the pick me up I get from wearing these! Plus, I haven't worn them with this red shirt yet!
Funny story, I get into work and go to punch in, and the downstairs receptionist looks at me and says "that is a cute outfit, I really like it." I say thank you and get ready to go on my way and then she says "only YOU can pull off pants like that." And she really did mean it as a compliment, but the way she said it was kind of like "only YOU can prevent forest fires." I laughed and thanked her again.
I get a lot of compliments every time I wear this red shirt. It is not something I would have likely picked out for myself, so I have to thank Megan and Nora Bird - if they hadn't pulled it out for me at their styling event in January I wouldn't have it now and wouldn't have so many people tell me they like it! I love it!
