Up or down.

I realized it’s been a little while since these red pants have been featured. Today was the perfect day to bring them back! I love that I can dress these pants up or down, and for this ensemble I chose a combination of both, pairing them with a boyfriend cardigan and heels.

Outfit Breakdown:
Cardigan: LOFT (Save. Spend. Splurge.)
Blouse: Zara (Save. Spend. Splurge.)
Pants: Gap (Same. Save. Spend. Splurge.)
Bracelets: Secondhand, thrifted, Banana Republic
Shoes: White House Black Market (Save. Spend. Splurge.)
Purse: Vintage Dooney &  Bourke (Similar.)

Hair:
Curled away from my face with a 1.5″ curling iron. Pinned half up.

    What a coincidence! I wore my cropped, red pants today too! I thought that the weather and sunny mood of the day was perfect. Great minds think alike.

    I sport these on the regular. The first time I wore them they inspired one of my students to exclaim, “Mrs. Leppert-Tran you have true swag!” I really couldn’t agree more.

    Your nerd readers are too cute! Okay, so I propose once the weather gets warmer we girls take a shopping excursion to Chicago. I know I’ll be needing some fresh outfit options for spring! :)

    Those heels kill me everytime-they make every outfit look just perfect! I bet you could walk out of the house in pj’s and those shoes and people would be like, “who’s that stylish woman?” For real.
    Love your red pants! And that Dooney and Bourke makes me swoon.

  10. Gorgeous!! Love that you paired the red with neutrals – a personal fave! And that cardigan is the most perfect looking thing ever. Hope your week is fantastic! xo

    One of my favourite things about coloured skinnies is how great they look dressed up or down. Love this look on you!
