Day 13 MMM'19: Just Zig-Zagging Along


Caught rolling up my tunic top so you can see the full glory of my skirted pants.
~ whoops ~


Yes, I know, not the most flattering look.  But it's the pants we're checking out.

~ there we go ~

Made in cotton from Tina Givens Candace pants pattern, my second pair.  I luv this pattern.  I slightly modify it to put pockets in the wings and leave off the elastic at the bottom hem.



~ with the top down, so to speak ~

Tina Givens Olivia Tunic pattern made in a light-weight sweater knit.  I've made this tunic many times.  However, I don't think this is the best selection for these pants, but that's what came together today.


And horrors!  I forgot a close up of my platform Docs from ebay.  Maybe they'll have to have another outing...

Tomorrow is another day.

  1. If you have a new pair of shoes everyday for a month your shoe rack must be amazing!
    Loving these pants with the patterned fabric.
    And platform Docs? Yes please!

    1. Not a new pair, just another pair for each day this month. Quelle difference. But still, I know, it's a lot. eek!
      I meant to have the scale pattern on the pants go the opposite way, but, oh well. It still works.

  2. What a fantastic print on those harems, they're fab.
    Lucky you finding those hideously expensive double soled Docs on Ebay, a couple of my friends have them (the double soles are brilliant for keeping your feet warm when you're a market trader!) xxx

    1. Too bad the top doesn't do them justice.
      I wore the Docs that day for puddle jumping from the recent rains. And they really are comfortable.

  3. Those are my kind of pants! I'm envious of the double-soled Docs - it's getting harder for me to find Docs that have enough "give" for my bunions, which is sad.

    1. Oh Shelley, that is sad. I always find that Docs are soooo wide. Lately I've been seeing cool-looking fabric shoes. Like those black high-tops I had on recently, or knit ones with rubber soles. These pants are very easy to make, by the way. And only take 1 1/2 yards of cotton to make.

    1. Trousers/ dress? Yes, me too. It's my favorite pants pattern and so easy to make. Believe it or not, it only takes 1 1/2 yards of fabric too. Yes, of course.
