In today's episode of #bloggerproblems, these pants photograph SO WEIRD (see them styled for cold weather, here.) I promise you they don't look this strange in real life. I think the key is to wear them a little bit looser and lower, to avoid joining the mile-long-crotch club. 

This was an outfit that came together when I had two minutes and needed something to wear, NOW. These pants came to me secondhand from a co-worker, and I don't wear them too often. I was deliberating between a couple fancier tops, when I spied this t-shirt, and the rest of the ensemb fell into place around it. I like how this feels very classic menswear-y. 

In hair news (which I very very rarely have, this is a big deal) lately I've been "wanding" my hair with a barrel roller (per Andrea's instruction) and loving it! The barrel curls + dry shampoo + a few days gives my hair this awesome texture that a wand just can't do. And if you should know one thing about my hairstyling- it's that I love a style that I can wear for three, four, five days before another wash. 

These pictures accurately depict that Nashville is sunny, bright, and hot, hot HOT! I am stuck in that state of bliss that is Friday, my favorite holiday, every week. It helps that I shopped online this morning :D and completely destroyed my no shopping goal for the year. Anyway, I come to you in full disclosure of that. I hope you have a happy weekend, and thanks for stopping by!!

I actually REALLY like the pants despite the #bloggerproblem haha! :)

Girl, half of my clothes photo weird! And it doesn't help that I take my pictures at the end of the day, so they're usually all stretched out and wrinkly!
I love this outfit on you though! I think you have the perfect body shape for those pants. I could imagine them looking awful on someone shaped differently, but they were made for you!

I do not think the pants look weird at all, they're super cute! Also, I wish I could wear my hair without washing for more than a day or (possibly) two!Hope you're having a great day! xo Hannah

Girl, I'm with you... I shopped online this morning and totally blew my monthly budget! Online shopping is just plain dangerous! haha.
I agree with the ladies... the pants look really cute on you! :)

Thanks so much Marie!!

Priya said...

Aww thanks Danielle! That's another blogger problem, taking photos at the END of the day when you've been wearing an outfit all day! I always spill something on myself.

Hahahaha this post made me laugh. I HATE how my green jeans photograph around the crotch. They give that area the weirdest shape. I swear they don't look that bad in person, at least I hope not! Love this combo with your striped tee. Don't you have a dress in the exact same pattern, color, and shape as that tee? I thought you were being creative wearing it as a shirt at first! So what all did you buy??

Larissa said...

Such a super cute look! I see these kinds of pants everywhere these days and I wonder if I should get some too... ;)
How did you manage cleaning your closet? I did that too and I will sell lots of clothes on a fleamarket next week. I hope I will sell a lot :)
Thanks a lot for your comments!
