Last night was Date Night:  Cocktails while watching the Lakers vs. Knicks!  Go Jeremy Lin!  And we saw "Safe House".  Great movie with plenty of action from beginning to end.  I highly recommend it!  Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds were excellent!

The temp starting dropping last night and it was windy, cold and misty by the time the night was over.  Seems as if everytime I wear these pants, it begins to rain.  Jinx!  And today it's freezing, so I have to pull a dreaded coat out of the closet.

Wearing:  blazer: Vogue 8333; top: sequined pullover (old) from Know Style; pants: Vogue 1059; shoes: calf-hair leopard slingbacks: last seen here; green clutch is same as here.

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!
