Colored Pants Trial

Alright y'all well I really do intend to do a post just on the awesome thrifting deals that we snagged for new outfits......

....but for right now all I've got are a bunch of pictures of me trying to figure out just how to pull off these purple pants that we found....which I love but I'm trying to use what I have to make them work in the heat of summer....

I tried this for movies with Tall D and didn't like it. I also tried 'em with my black tunic and the same black sandals...and I felt TOO hipster-like....

This morning I went this route for coffee with my cousin....

...and then I thought about going this route (but I thought it'd look better with silver sandals....which I don't own.....AND I'm pretty sure this is the shirt that housemate M hates....)

....and then I just threw all hipster caution to the wind, embraced my seven cumulative years of time in Portland, and threw together this monochromatic look....

Honestly love the pants...but how would you wear them? 

I can't wait til I can try them with fall boots and some comfy brown sweater up top. I mean, I CAN wait for fall still....but I'm glad to have options in mind.....

....oh and the real bonus...getting to try the colored pants look for $7. Yup....gosh I love thrifting!

    i think all of the outfits look great- you could wear each one. My preference is actually not for the all purple though :)

  2. I love those pants and think they look great on you! I wear colored pants all the time and usually pair them with a very simple top, like a black or white top. Or navy if I am wearing my coral pants. I think colored pants are SO fun!
