i never thought i’d be buying trousers that are so…so…fran drescher on the nanny circa 1996!  but i find them oddly flattering (and i happened to miss the cut off date to return them), so here i am in floral printed pants.  paired them with a lace textured blouse and disco inspired heels to really embrace a go big or go home kind of attitude.  my very own version of a fashion risk!  i might even gasp mix them with a different print next time!  getting really rebellious thoughts here.  soon, i’ll be breaking all the fashion rules and find myself on the fashion police’s most wanted list!  my family will be so disappointed, and my reputation tarnished.  all the while, thinking “who knew pants could be so dangerous?”

p.s. can you tell i’ve been watching a lot of gilmore girls recently?  their fast paced nonsensical chatter really starts to get to you!

    Those pants are so rad! I love them on you! I also really love that you referenced The Nanny… the other day I was looking at my blog stats and realized that someone from Flushing, New York visited my blog & immediately thought of The Nanny! Too funny!!

    Firstly, actually burst out laughing at your Fran Drescher reference.. love it. But seriously though – great pants!

  • Judy April 3, 2012 at 12:32 am

    These are so fun! Definitely have a slight Fran Drescher vibe but you made it work for 2012. I've seen so many people with the H&M ones, too but I think these are more fun and lively.

    Haha love it…I've definitely had that moment when I'd forgotten to return something and finally committed to liking it. And you should love these because they look AMAZING on you! Especially mixed with the lace top – such a great mix of texture and print. You so pretty giiiiiiirl.

    I love your floral pants! Wish I could find a pair like that.

  • Marisa April 3, 2012 at 10:41 pm

    You're so funny Alicia! And I completely forgot about Fran Drescher and her floral pants until you mentioned them! It is so true that floral pants are loud like her but I think they just work for this Spring season and you pull them off well 🙂

    Cute outfit!! 🙂

  • Leonie April 4, 2012 at 5:30 am

    I'm kind of happy you forgot to bring these floral pants back on time, because I think they're great on you! It's nice to see a different floral print than the one from H&M (even though I own that own too) and this print is especially gorgeous with the yellow in it. Kind of sunshine happy in a way!
