deux nuits en or.2

More black and white for my two wonderful evenings during the holidays. Again fun, fun trousers with details. This pair has a self tie belt to make these bucket bag trousers billow-y and exciting. The pockets beckon your hands because the trousers and not tight through the hip at all. The top of the 'bag' is loose. I guess if you were take a very very big pair of pants and put a really tight belt around them, this is what you would get. They are fantastic! Think little girl wearing her mom's work trousers with a big belt.

For me, the shoes however, are the main attraction to this outfit! Super adorable, super easy to wear, super unique, a bit rocker and they really pull the outfit together. They were a labor of love to find, as I had first noticed them in a magazine ad, and searched and searched and searched until I found them. I was a bit obsessed - we can all comprehend that, right? For jewelry, I pulled from the patent leather white of the shoes and wore pearls - shiny and traditional, to help balance the more edgy feel of the buckles in the shoes, but complementing and similar.

The blouse is a cotton bodysuit that I have had for a while. The great thing about the bodysuit, especially with these types of trousers, is that you don't have to fuss about keeping the shirt tucked in tight, or worry that it is popping out of the top of the trouser.

So, this was a super easy outfit - straight up black and white with little details to make it interesting and cute. But the shoes... the shoes are absolutely fantastic and to me are the main attraction.
