White boys tee: Simply Basic (Wal-Mart). Gray cardigan: American Apparel. Charm necklace: Urban Outfitters. Black pants: H&M. Pink metallic belt: Jacob Jr.. Flats: Zara.

As much as I love these pants, I kind of regret buying them because:
a) The material is a dust and lint magnet. As soon as I finish lint rolling it, the pants have already acquired a new coat of dust and lint.
b) The pants wrinkle easily and are impossible to iron.

PS. Toronto friends, did you know Urban Outfitters opened a second location at 481 Queen Street West? It's just west of Spadina. I passed by it today, but didn't go inside. Has anyone checked it out?

oh these pants are so beautiful but it sucks to hear that the material is a magnet for dust and lint. Nevertheless you look beautiful :)

That is a pity, because the outfit looks much adorable! Hmm, maybe there is some spray for fabrics able to prevent the fuss?

The pink belt is a nice touch.

I hear ya on pants that look great but made with fabric that does funny things. Today I was wearing a pair of pants that I haven't worn for a while--it's got a lovely hue of light green and some interesting pockets. Unfortuntely, the pants got creased as soon as I sit down, and I sat for hours in front of a phone today. Unflattering "accordian pleats" resulted when I got up. Small wonder why those pants don't get worn often.

This look reminds me of classic Audrey (maybe circa Sabrina?). I really like how chic and simple it is, the belt is a thoughtful addition.

yeah... the pants are great but that kind of fabric cannot share any space with cats! but that seems to be my kind life..
-_-!

too bad about the pants, i have some items of clothing that are exactly the same. they look amazing, though. and i love how your shoes reflect the colors your wearing.

Thanks for the idea! I'll have to do some googling into this.

Accordian pleats are the worst. Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking when they choose certain materials to make certain things. Clothes should come with a warning label if it's only for standing around in!

There are a few clothing items I stay far away from my dog while wearing.
