Wide Leg Pants

By -
This past September, I was lounging on my couch flipping through pictures from New York Fashion Week with psychotic glee. Between the macrame bikinis and granny panty "shorts" was a most beautiful sight: wide leg pants. They are part of the 70s revival we'll see this season, but we always think of wide leg pants as Katharine Hepburn pants. Insert comment about love and comfort and swish. Now, onto shopping!Top: sailor pants, ASOS $53.79
grey work pant, Old Navy $32.50
olive pants, Anthropologie $138
Bottom: pale beige stripe, New York & Company $34.95
tie-waist work trouser, Nordstrom $148
brown pleat swishy pants, Top Shop $90

Of course, the two I like best are from Anthropologie and Nordstrom. Darn expensive taste.

I'm very excited. Last year I bought wide leg sailor jeans, but haven't been able to wear them for their need of hemming. If I throw them at my sewing machine, they will magically fixify and BOOM! pants.

Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.

I love Miu Miu's harlequin themed show from Spring Summer 2008, especially this sweetly sexy striped mini dress. Kensie created a cute green version that's more wearable for everyday life. It's $118 at Macy's and perfect for spring. Now if I could find an inexpensive version of that show's teacup heels... Runway image: style.com .

Spring 2009 Couture

Jean Paul Gaultier's runway promoted one of my favorite fashion looks: pinstripes with a delicate, feminine print. He had high-waisted pants, suspenders, lingerie elements, lace, sheer fabrics, softly geometric designs, and monochrome dominated, much to my glee. His menswear-inspired looks are a testament to how graceful the style can be. Christian Lacroix also paid homage to menswear with pieces inspired by matadors and soldiers. The complete collection wasn't cohesive, but even the breaks from theme were lovely. It's hard to argue with so many colors, ruffles and embroidery. Plus, I want that polka dot coat!
