Description: B: Semi-fitted pants with tapered leg.
If I've sewn an Anne Klein pattern before then I don't remember. So we'll call this a first! I'm really loving this silhouette for pants. I could never really enjoy pants like these from RTW, but since I sew them up in every color (and I just may), I'm enjoying them now!
I decided to make another pair of bright pants. This time in pink. I found a nice bright pink bull denim at Jo-Anns. These pant are similar to the red pants I made last month. They both have side zips, but the waist is different -- simpler on these. I still had to lengthen the leg by three inches. But for these, I kept the same size leg width. And I really love the ankle slits.
These pants are pretty high-waisted. As in, they actually stop at your natural waist! How's that for a change? LOL And unlike the red pair, the waist fit perfectly. No gaping at all!
These are just really great fitting pants. I may make these again in a longer length. Hmmm... possible yellow or blue.
And since I had a great pair of brightly hued pants, I decided to do some colorblocking with my orange top, red belt and clutch. And I added a nude pump.

Great pants and that color blocking is to die for! I'd love to wear cigarette pants, but being short and "hippy" has kept me away.
great outfit - love the bright colors and the fresh silhouette.
The shoes make the look!
I love those pants! I may have to try to make some.

I love this look on you - the pants are a perfect cut and the colours are fabulous!
You wear those pants well. Love the color combinations!
Coming out of the woodwork to say that I love this outfit! Orange and pink is one of my all time favorite color combos. I've been dreaming of a pair of hot pink corduroys for fall lately. This may just make me try.
I love this! Your so brave! I would love to be able to colourblock but at the moment I just don't have the confidence!
You sew beautifully. I hope to make things as lovely as you do one day.
Beautiful outfit and beautiful backdrop for a photo shoot!
Awesome pink pants, and great styling!
Great pants, great pattern, terrific inspiration for all of us to be braver with colour.
Absolutely in LOVE with the entire outfit! It takes a ot of skill to make flattering high waist pants.

I probably wouldn't look twice at the pattern since the top is not my cup of tea and that's what's featured on the envelop. Thanks for bring it up to my attention. Now I am going to get it for the pants. You look lovely in them (when are you ever less than amazingly fabulous?). Thanks for sharing!
