sweatpants - self made
top - terranova
i keep proving myself wrong this year..
i made and proudly wore bunch of unusual (for me) stuff
pants and more pants and shorts and leggings, that i used to hate
and here i am, sporting sweatpants
that are ranked second on my irrational hate list of clothing items
(no 1 is saved for jeans.. still hate jeans very much
and still think i won't wear them ever..
but who am i kidding, i'll probably end up making them too)
..
i've actually made sweatpants before
and still own and occasionally wear that pair
but, although cool to look at, those are not the most practical of pants
with all that extra fabric in crotch area
..
but these are pretty much perfect
(except when it comes to pattern matching
they are slightly off and it bugs me, big time)
they are great travel pants
great for camping, lounging by fire, hiking, workout
and i even wore them to the local pub one night
(and my grandma is crazy about them
she requested a pair too)

DeleteGranny has fab taste. I need like 8 pairs of tehse now that I get to work in my pajamas....
ReplyDelete:) if you decide to make those 8 pairs using this pattern, you can get it here
DeleteI like the way you styled these, your sweatpants look very chic.
ReplyDeleteWell, these are way cooler than the average pair of sweatpants. Love that you wore them to the pub! They are awesome.
ReplyDeletethanks, liza jane..
DeleteIt is usually right at the apex of my irrational hate of something that I end up making it. I guess I like proving myself wrong all the time. (Who else is going to argue harder with myself?) Anyhoos, these are at the top of my list to make this year and I hope I can pull it off as coolly as you have! (Love the sheer-back top, too.)
ReplyDeletethanks, amy! and hurry up with making your pair, it's a really quick project :)
DeleteThese are some awesome sweatpants, and I also happen to hate jeans! I'm not the only one!
ReplyDeletethanks.. glad i'm not the only one too :)
DeleteYour grandma sounds awesome! And these are pretty cool for a pair of sweatpants... I wouldn't be caught dead wearing sweatpants in public... but maybe with this kind of print it could work out :p
ReplyDeletei'm usually one of those people that doesn't even wear sweatpants while lounging at home, but these are different type of swatpants, i guess :)
DeleteThese are fantastic!!! I LOVE them! What a great print! Any chance your grandma would agree to model hers?
ReplyDeletethanks, ginger! i can try to talk her into that :)
DeleteSeriously cute! I really like that sheer backed top too; it's super cool :)
