I say go for them if you can think of 3 outfits to make with things already in your closet. To make these not as kiddie, I could picture them with a slightly oversized slouchy knit sweater in a neutral color, a blousy feminine top (again, in a neutral color), or something structured like pairing the feminine top with a blazer over it. I think the key to steer away from Lisa Frank, hah, is to avoid matching too much with colors in the print and to opt for basic colors like cream, black, navy, camel, etc. instead of a bright. Hope my 2 cents helps!
I think you could totally pull the pants off, maybe with that red silk blouse from J. Crew from a while back? Or any silk blouse, really. (I could never pull these off, so I envy you.) xx, meg
I kinda love these, and they have great reviews on anthro's site -- I say go for it. I may even have to join you, though I'm tempted by the white version as an alternate to plain white summer jeans!
I don't think they're easy to pull off persay but it is doable! I would probably buy them from a place like H&M or forever first though to see how much I wore them. That video is hilarious!
honestly, maybe i'm too simple, but i'm thinking the only thing that would go with these pants is a basic white top. and if you can only pull one look from it, the pants would not be worth it. now if you have lots of money to burn, yeah, buy 'em, wear 'em once, but it just doesn't seem like a versatile piece for the wardrobe.
Okay, I have to say that beyond the original sh*t girls say videos, I hadn't been a huge fan of the others (funny or not, a meme can get old quickly). HOWEVER. I hadn't seen these fashion ones and they're hilarious. Thanks for sharing!
Haha I wonder how many times that guy cracked up before getting it right! Floral pants are growing on me, I think I will end up buying an affordable pair, nothing expensive, and most likely pairing it with neutral (safe) pieces ;)
You should at least try them! So many times I let my fears overwhelm me and I miss out on trying things that are actually pretty awesome. No fear in fashion! :)
I adore these! You could really pump them up and wear a bright striped top with a really chunky knit cardigan and roll up the bottoms of the pants and pair with a fab pair of bootie heels or fun flats. I think you should get them and if someone asked me if Lisa Frank styled my outfit I'd prob be super excited lol I loved the brights from LF circa the early 90s!

ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of the floral print pants. However, I wasn't a fan of skinny jeans at first and now I practically live in them...
ReplyDeleteLove the video!! Sooo many things are true!
ha, too funny, i saw that same video yesterday.

I'd give you a thumbs up! I can always appreciate someone who can take a fashion risk. And I actually like these...I'd wear them myself!
ReplyDeleteI think these are gorgeous but wouldn't wear them — I don't think I could pull them off. But maybe if you kept everything else super simple you could.
ReplyDeleteI think you could definitely pull these off!

ReplyDeleteTo me it's less about pulling them off and more about the price per wear... I'd say go for it for $40, but not $200. Love these videos :)

oooh good discussion!
ReplyDeleteI feel like if you could pair them with something like a bright silk button down with a pop of color flats...
I could see it. totally do it, someone is and you might as well be the first.
xo.

ReplyDeletehaha Lisa Frank!! Man those were the days!!
ReplyDeleteI definitely think you could pull them off!
Not everybody can, but those with style can absolutely do it!
I would totally be jealous of you. I really want a pair for myself so I might be biased though. I like em!
ReplyDeleteI don't know...it feels a little like pants I wore in elementary school...I'm sure you would still be adorable though!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be caught dead in those. But if you like them, go for it.
ReplyDeleteI don't know. I'd NEVER do it, so you can be the one in the floral pants. I'm working on color. This is just too much for me.
ReplyDeleteI need to wrap my mind around this one. They're making me anxious.
But I love you no matter what you wear.
I like them, I agree with you its a bit intimidating but I'm sure you can ROCK them!
ReplyDeleteI wear polka dot trousers so what would I say?! :)
umm... of COURSE you could pull these off! with flying colors, I might add. I looove + think they're super chic. wish I was wearing them right now :)

ReplyDeleteI'd say it's a lot of look but you'd pull them off, fo sho.
ReplyDeleteI think these skinnies are fantastic! The colors are perfect. Go for it! They'd be darling on you!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
