Yes I am guilty of splurging on the latest trends but I have slowly learned over the years there are certain trends that are worth getting from a bargain spot! One of my favorite items from the J. Crew Spring 2011 catalog was what they referred to as the “weekend pant”. I so badly wanted these pants but I could not get myself to pay $68 for it. One of my fav bargain spots is of course TARGET, so I was ecstatic to find a VERY VERY similar pair of the “weekend pant” at Target for way less! I am a huge fan of any pant that is comfortable and that you can make look cute! These pants are perfect for a Saturday to run errands, go to the farmers market in, have breakfast with a girlfriend, and even go to the movies in. The straight/skinny fit with the cuff bottoms makes these pants super easy to pair different shoes with. You can wear your favorite pair of ballet flats with it or your converse tennis shoes if you prefer. These are defiantly pants you can “accessorize up” as Carrie Bradshaw would say!
Seen on: Similar looks seen on Jessica Alba, Jenna Lyons (Creative Director for J. Crew).
How I wear it: Pictured Above. I wear it with a J. Crew V-Neck Tee and denim jacket (if weather permits). I have worn it with ballet flats during the day then with the pictured heels when going out for dinner at a neighborhood spot. Now you don’t want to where these pants to a Saturday night dinner in the city (BIG NO!). I also wear my J. Crew leather bracelets with a gold watch… (pictured on last week’s blog)… just to accessorize it up. I just love any outfit you can”accessorize up” with your favorite pieces.
Where to get it: J. Crew, Juicy Couture (my FAV spot to get sweats), or Target
