What I'm Wearing | Black and Winter White

Today, the weather was really mild, humid and around 72 degrees.  Rain weather!  I still wanted to dress in a fall-appropriate outfit.  I pulled out my winter white Alice + Olivia wide-legged pants that I sewed almost 3 years ago.  They're still just as fabulous as when I first sewed them.  You can read the review HERE.  
If you're looking for great pants patterns and you've never tried a Vogue Alice + Olivia one, you've been missing out.  They're cut with a wide waistband, slim through the hips and thighs, and flaring at the knee.  Each pair I've made have become classics and staples in my closet.  When I wear them out, I'm going to sew more!
I made it home today just before the rain came!

The pants look so classy but I love how you have accessorized this outfit too. The belt, bag and jewellery are fab.

I haven't sewn pants in so long. I really have to give that some thought. I am really loving that belt, it adds just enough fab to an outfit.

Every time you post about that pattern I remember that I have it and need to try it for myself. Did you line these white pants?

Erica B. said...

Grace, I originally lined them. But I cut it out. Even though I didn't think the fabric had a slight amount of stretch, they do. And they fit much better without the lining.
