Hit or Mrs. - My Nana Would Approve   I picked up these pants a few months ago at the Gap and they’ve been sitting in my closet ever since. Their some overly practical polyester blend with a nice stretchy waistband. This is definetly something I picture on my grandma Nana complete with a printed sweatshirt & polo dicky. I’ve already imagined some designers at Gap laughing over the dare to release these pants & see if people will buy them simply because of the label. The real reason I bought them was how comfortable they were (and the sale price didn’t hurt either). These have so much give & movement! I tried to dress them up with a pair of Coach mary jane heels & a nice high collared sweater (Banana Republic). I would love to know what you think! Did I have a senior moment with these pants?

Hit or Mrs. - Summer Stripes     It seems that we’re getting a very late summer here in Seattle, so I am finally able to pull out some of my favorite warm weather duds. I love how stripes can do so many things for a figure. You should never make any asumptions about how they will look on you & must always try them on!
