Nothing special, but it's a combo I haven't worn before. I think I would prefer it without the necklace, but it looked dressier and more Holiday that way.
Next up is three days off to celebrate my birthday!
Theory blazer - Marshall's during Shoptoberfest
Linen tee - Madewell
Charlie trousers - Anthropologie
Oh! Shoes booties - Amazon

Wow! Those pants are amazing on you. I don't think I have seen them before. Super fab. I like it with the necklace -- it sort of echoes the pattern on the pants. But I would also like it a lot without. Next time.

Oh, I love this. How fun! Fantastic pants. And for what it's worth, I think the necklace looks perfect with the outfit.

What do you mean, nothing special? This is a gem of an outfit, and it feels so "December" with the brocade theme of the pants. I can't tell, are you wearing shades of green or grey?

The pants are wonderful; what a great print! And I really like the necklace with this outfit, but I tend toward more is more as opposed to a minimalist style.

Love the detail in the pants paired with the simple silhouette. It's the holidays, the minimal look without the necklace can wait until January!

I must protest -- this is something special! The pants are fantastic, and I heartily endorse the necklace with the outfit -- that definitely amped it up into "special" territory.
You look gorgeous and happy. I hope you have a wonderful birthday!
I love those slim bottoms on you. This is surely one of my favorite outfits of yours. I hope that you have a relaxing an extraordinary three days off. Happy Birthday

OMG - I just love those pants! You look awesome Rae!
Nothing special???!!! You look fabulous. Happy Birthday.
I'm just your average working stiff who loves nice things and hates to pay for them. This blog outlines my efforts to navigate that treacherous shopping/saving divide through swappin', thriftin', and even a little resellin'. Many of the pieces in my wardrobe cost me just $1! We've heard a lot about people "living above their means" in recent years; I'm championing the concept of living large *below* your means - whatever that means for you. :)
