It's paper-bag trouser weather again, and I couldn't be happier. These are totally my favorite pair of non-denim trousers. They're silky, they're comfy, and they're in a ridiculous color. I have them in yellow, too.
My hair is such a mess but I'm still on the fence about what I want to do with it. Chop it off even more (I'm think a la Rachel last summer) or grow it out so it's long for summer. I know what I'm leaning towards. Can you guess? Hint: I'm super low maintenance when it comes to hair (as you can tell *cough cough*).
In other news, my friends and family have been pushing me to get into the lifestyle photography business for yearz, and my ex/estranged boyfriend decided it was finally time, so he went balls out and booked a photoshoot for me next week two days before I leave for vacation. So I'm going to be scrambling this weekend to get everything set up with that (back-up batteries & memory cards, photo release documents, clearing up enough space on my hard-drive because I literally only have 2 free gigs left, etc...) along with everything else. It's going to be a busy week. But, since I'm Miss Type A who thrives on busy-ness, I think I'll survive.
What are your weekend planz?
T-shirt & Belt: J. Crew
Scarf: Tulle
Trousers & Shoes: Urban Outfitters
Bag: Fossil
Sunnies: Karen Walker
That is pretty cool, and I hope your photoshoot goes well. I guess the ex must still really care about you... which is kinda sweet. I think think, knowing no other details, haha.
ReplyDeleteLove those pants too. So bright, so awesome.
Chic on the Cheap
those pants look amazing on you. I always looks like I have a poop in my pants with that style of trousers.
ReplyDeleteHope your shoot goes well!
That's so exciting - good luck with the shoot! Freaking love your pants Ashley. I've been wanting a pair, and this just made me want some even more :)

Those trousers are cute! I can't wait until the snow is all melted to be able to wear trousers with flats with no socks on. And congrats on the photography gig! You'll do great!
ReplyDeleteAt least it sounds like you'll have good weather for the shoot - glad you're getting at least a little of our warmth up there (secretly I'd prefer the 60's instead of the 80s we're going to get...)
ReplyDeleteLove those pants! Freaking orange?? How can you not love that? They are just awesome!
I'm low maintenance on the hair front too - which is why I have a simple pixie. I'm guessing you're leaning towards chopping it? It's fun to freshen up a bit for spring!
You're right! I know that length wouldn't be much of a change, but I don't want to regret it when I'm trying to grow my hair out and it's taking forever. You look great with a pixie. I've considered it, but I just don't have the ears for it. True story.
DeleteWith your awesome Type A personality, you will kill the shoot. Not literally. Figuratively.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I want your pants.

I thrive on being busy too. I intentionally drive myself to the point of nervous breakdowns. It's awesome. (Well, not really, but whatever.) That's a smart color combination (had I not re-read my comment, that would have said "door combination." Uh, what?). I need to try that sometime. I always wear jeans.
ReplyDeleteFabulous blog and style!!! I wish I had nice exes like this one hehe

Gorgeous pants. Really beautiful. The center of any outfit. And I like the odd color, too.
ReplyDeleteYour bracelet is nice and goes with the pants.
I'm tempted to make some smartass remark about getting into your pants but I'll pass on that right now and not ruin my sincere compliment.
You have just reminded me that I have some trousers very similar to these and I need to dig them out because the colour is amazing!! Hope you shoot goes amazingly! I will be writing numerous personal statements all weekend between eating some amazing food at scrummy restaurants ! x

Cute outfit. I don't think I could ever pull off wearing those pants, but you do it well. Visiting from Breakfast with Tiffany.

You look gorgeous. I love your hair but I also think that you look great in every hair length and color you've tried so far so I say go for it. Do the Rachel.
ReplyDeletePants are great. Tee and belt and shoes are fab. You styled those pants brilliantly.
I want this comments formatting. What is it? I need it. I would love to reply directly to people in the comments area.
One week from our actual hug fest! Wait, are you a hugger? I am. This could get awkward if you aren't. I might have to love bully you.

Oh my gosh, your hair was so long back when you were wearing those yellow trousers. CRAZY! Well, you look unfairly gorgeous either way, so do your hair however you want! I love your sunglasses here. I wish I could wear sunglasses, but I gave up contacts when I went cruelty-free, so it's nerdy glasses every day for me or I go blind. I choose four eyes. Have fun with your photo shoot, Girl! I'm sure it will be fantastic.
