Spring is here - time for printed pants

After so many long months of cold, cloudy misery (can you tell I hate winter?), today the high is 77 glorious degrees! I will be going out at lunch to enjoy the weather before it goes back down to the 40s for the weekend. Here is my outfit for this glorious spring day - of course it involves cropped, printed pants which are my favorite spring outfit staple:


7FAMK Denim Jacket, old
J.Crew Factory artist tee
J.Crew Factory printed toothpicks
J.Crew pave link bracelet
I have not worn this jean jacket in about 5 years... but I still love it! It is seven for all mankind and I bought it circa 2005 at Marshall's for about $80, which I thought was a huge splurge. Totally worth it. The dark wash is timeless and it is super comfy.

I guess I am sort of wearing a Canadian tuxedo though, since my toothpicks are denim... hopefully no one will notice! (Does anyone know why denim on denim is called that? I can't say that I've ever seen anyone in Canada dressed that way... while I have seen plenty of Americans donning the CT.)

In case is anyone is wondering about the pants, you can still buy them here for $54.50 right now, which is almost half off. They are substantial yet really comfy. I took my regular toothpick size (30) and I could ALMOST size down, but they feel nice in this size. I ordered the tresco floral toothpicks which will be arriving soon - cannot wait to try those! I'll try to post a review for anyone wondering just how crazy they look in real life. What can I say, I really enjoy printed pants. Here is my current collection, which is always growing...

Printed Pants for spring and summer - can't wait!





You can't see, but I am wearing Toms on my feet today... not quite ready for sandals yet!

What's the weather like where you live? Have you transitioned into sundresses and sandals or are you still wearing your puffy coat? Do you love or hate the tresco floral pants?
