Okay, I didn't realize how heavy on the Hebron Gap Outlet this outfit was until typing up this list! I swear, I do shop at other places. Sometimes. Anyway, moving on...
So it turns out that my most popular outfit post of 2011 was this one. This was not a result of it being a good outfit (oh goodness, NO). Instead, it seems that people are constantly googling some variation of the phrase "how to wear yellow pants." Apparently, I'm not the only one who finds these things tricky!
Here's what I've discovered in the past year - I think yellow pants look best with color. I once assumed they would be perfect as a pop of color in a neutral outfit, but I just can't find a combo I like as much as pairing them with another bright color. In the past few months, my wardrobe seems to go either one way or the other - most days, I live in blacks, browns, and greys, but occasionally I go for serious color, head to toe. There's no in-between!
Cousin Itt time (yes, I did look up the proper spelling of "Cousin Itt")! Have I mentioned how long my hair is getting? It's kind of ridiculous, but I love it.
I hope you have an awesome Wednesday!

I think you're right, they look great with another bright color!
Your blue shirt looks stunning with your yellow pants! You pull it off so well!
I love looking through the search results! Sometimes they are hilarious (or creepy!)
I saw this posted on Wardrobe Remix and I was instantly smitten with those pants! I just ordered myself a pair of white flares for the spring but I'm hoping to get lucky (and brave) enough to thrift a pair of bright pants too.
You're almost making me want some :) I pulled off an orange pair when I was younger but yellow seems quite scary lol, you look lovely though.
p.s. most of my clothes are from a Gap outlet store - more Gap for your money :)
