Fancy Python Pants

My husband does not like my python pants, he can tolerate them much more than a maxi skirt, but not his favourite look. He says they are loud, I say they are fun. My daughter got a pair of python pants as part of her back to school stash (hers are a sand colouring like my leather python skirt), he was not impressed. My husband is a good sport about me posting his fashion likes and dislikes. We all have our things.

These pants are fun for me, I wanted to dress them up and this blazer is the best way to do it. I figured I may as well use my clothing as much as possible, especially if the pieces are classic and easily intermixed.



When I saw these pictures I didn't like the booties with the outfit. I wanted to try something different. It just cut me all wrong. So I ended up disliking the way I styled the outfit. I should have added a pair of coloured heels or flats.



Liking the outfit even less when I see the above and below picture. Plus when you are taking pictures of yourself you miss things like in the picture below. Can you spot what's wrong?



I changed out the blouse and added lots of pearls and put my pointy Choo's on and I felt all better.




I honestly think you could wear this outfit to work and go out for drinks with friends right after. For me I'll just take my kids to a swimming lesson in this outfit. Or maybe a date night, it's been a while.

  3. I agree! Those pointy pumps are the way to go! The outfit looks fabulous. My husband isn't a big fan of animal print in general, but I wear it anyways. Sometimes we have to overrule our husbands when it comes to fashion :) These pants look great on you!

  4. Great outfit - I'm just loving that blazer. Funny enough, I liked the boots with it also - maybe because it's so cold over here now and I can't bear to get the feet out anymore! Have a lovely weekend Iva, Avril x

  7. I definitely agree with you...the change of shoes was a big improvement...the whole outfit is not loud at all, actually.
    It's pretty chic and classy...with a little bit of edge because of the python but nothing that would be considered over the top.
    XOXO

  8. LOVE the outfit - but if you wanted a pop of color - you could just add a colored clutch!

  13. Tuck in that Tory Burch belt girl! ;)
    And can I just say? I love the booties up top with those pants. I have a very similar pair and they are cut the same way : I've learned to love them for that reason.
