| I know what this must look like. You’re thinking, it was fine when she was going on endlessly about boyfriend jeans, but now she’s gone too far. To say these jeans are a ‘slouchy fit’ would probably be a bit of an understatement. My best way of describing the cut is ‘Zoo Suit’ – high waisted, super baggy and dramatically tapered at the ankle. Curiously, rather than buying an ill fitting pair of pants which I make work with (perhaps questionable) belting and rolling, these jeans were evidently designed this way. A thrift find, of course. The label features delightful illustrations of men in bowling shirts and white sneakers, perhaps a serving suggestion. It made me wonder to what demographic and/or era this silhouette is supposed to appeal to, but at the same time I couldn’t help but be be completely appealed. The minute I saw these I was like, ‘will look so good with heels’. I wonder if you agree with me, or is this another one of my poor, stepping-over-the-masculinity-line, style choices to be regretted this time next year?

Another pair of printed pants
Pin It Now!
| Living life could be boiled down to a never ending quest for that elusive balance between variables and forces – fast and slow, greed and generosity, pride and humility… In our materialistic modern society, it seems we have a new balance to strike, one between being trendy and a fashion victim. It’s the fine art of being the first to jump onto the current fad then rejecting those fads immediately as it becomes recognized as mainstream. Personally, I am completely resigned to being in the fashion victim extreme. Show me any credible evidence that something is in vogue and I’ll go out and buy 10 of them. Printed pants? I’m up to my sixth pair. |
