i have been obsessed with lace pants these last few days (weeksmonths), and these are definitely my favourite out of all of them so far. couldnt believe my eyes when i saw them hanging on the sale rack at Sportsgirl- with a further 30% off sticker no less! that and the fact that they didnt even have to be shortened made them officially mine before i had even paid. thank god i work in fashion so they are actually deemed "work appropriate attire,"and i dont need to wait for an actual occasion before busting them out. funnily enough, i am most comfortable in them when i wear them to work, maybe because i'm not the only one wearing crazy pants at the office. walking to buy lunch is that much more fun, especially when you catch the evil looks thrown at me by the old ladies in the nail studio next to the deli.

oh, how boring things were before these bad boys came into my life!

also, in the process of de-clutteirng my wardrobe. i know it seems like i do this all the time, but i'm thinking i really want a small wardrobe filled with pieces i absolutely looove and nothing else. culling is so so hard though, especially when you have things like these lace pants that you know you wont love forever, but at the same time, can never really get rid of it. as much as i want to be simple and smart about wardrobes and fashion and buying patterns, i honestly believe in my heart i was meant to be a hoarder.
