I was loving those high-waisted trousers I made a few weeks ago so much I had no choice but to make another pair. This time I used a brown and ivory herringbone silk/wool blend (which was actually sort of hard to work with - I was surprised!). And then I wore it with black and white stripes. Which I'm still not completely sure was the right decision. Too many neutrals in too many patterns?
For these pants, to make them a little different than the last ones, I made the waistband about 1/2" thinner and I didn't cuff the bottom (also because I didn't have enough fabric to make the pants long enough to make a cuff at the bottom - it takes like 6 extra inches!).
Ouch,eyeballs! Excessive varying stripes! |

ReplyDeleteIdk why I love mixing patterns so much. Probably because you are technically "NOT" supposed to :)
You look lovely, as always. And you GOTTA teach me how to do that "do". It's hot, yet elegant, yet, mysterious, yet.... ok I'm done. Point is... HOW CAN I GET THAT LOOK?! Maybe a tutorial should be in the future :)
