Y’all (yes, I just used “y’all” and I’m from the northeast…I have friends from the south who told me I could totally pull it off so I’m going with it!) I am so obsessed over these high waisted pants from Express! They come in regular and petite sizes, I’m wearing a 00P and they could not fit me better! These pants do run a bit large so I would size down especially since they get loose with wear. The high waist, ruffle accents, and stripes make these pants so classic and flattering. They’re comfortable and light weight for the hotter months making them the perfect summer pants. What I love most about them is how versatile they are – if you’ve been reading my blog for a while then you know how much I love versatile items in my closet. It’s so beneficial for me to find clothes that I can wear both to the office and on the weekends – and these pants are the perfect example of that. They are SO cute to wear to the office, I actually wore them today and received multiple compliments! I would also wear these on vacation at the beach or to church on Sunday morning. I will get so many uses out of these pants, which is not something I can say for everything in my closet. Jonathan always teases me by saying that I have so many things in my closet that I’ve either A.) never worn or B.) have only worn once. As much as I hate to say it, he’s actually right about that – but I would definitely say that I have more staple items in my closet that I wear over and over again in a variety of different styles. These pants are definitely one of those items – grab them now while Express pants are buy 1 get 1 50% off!
