That’s right, I’m wearing cargo sweats. I picked these up with some Hautelook credits because they piqued my interest. Despite sounding like the most casual pants ever created, they LOOKED like they could work well in a dressy/casual mix. And I loved ’em here. Especially since they allowed me to trot out this tee that I bought about six years ago that has survived countless closet purges yet never been worn.
Have you picked up any experimental pieces lately? What prompted their purchase?

LOVE it – and love that you paired it with the red purse!
Love it!!!
Why yes. Yes, I have. I was up by the lake for a completely unrelated reason, and found myself adjacent to a designer warehouse sale which is (I’ve now learned) famous among clotheshorses all over the southern end of the province.
I got several pieces by a brand called Mouse Ji, and some by Akela Key, and one by PLANET, all for a pittance — even less than most of the other stuff there. I, uh, don’t think anyone else wanted them. Particularly the Mouse Ji sarouel. BUT I DO!!
They are amazing.
The pants look quite chic! Most of my closet is an experiment, but I’ve got some ankle pants I’m anxious to try out.
Comfy and stylish? I’m in!
I’m not usually a fan of sweats/shorts & heels but this looks surprisingly good! Maybe it’s the sequins in the t-shirt (and accessories) that make it non-clashy? I don’t know what it is, but points to you!
I had the same t-shirt — wound up sending it to a thrift shop!
Hi Sal. I cannot find those awesome cargo sweats *anywhere.* Are they definitely Hue brand and named “cargo sweats”? Is there a SKU for them? WANT. 🙂
Jill, yes definitely Hue brand. Here’s a pair on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hue-Womens-Hue-Utilitarian-Leggings-Black-U12590-/160832133137
You look great! I’ve been experimenting with animal print and new proportions. I’ve also found that some of the layering I was doing for modesty sake was packing on a false fat layer, so I’ve stripped down a bit. Now I just have to adjust to the sexiness vibe.
I love the style of these pants! Any suggestions for a plus size version? Doesn’t have to have pockets or be sweats, just looking for the shape/style.
