Because I want to be just like MC Hammer, but cuter



I have a fatal attraction to this years spring trend; the harem pant. I usually don't do trendy, but I want these pants to work for me REALLY badly. I tried on a cheap pair from Forever21 and they were too big and badly cut. I stood in the mirror and starred at the pants that were swimming on me, even Aladdin would have disapproved. I turned to BCBG and they have a pair for $238. [ pssht! ] I wouldn't pay that price for a trend that's going to be over soon. I've seen more subtle styles that aren't as baggy in the crotch that could survive for a couple of years paired with a fitted top and a nice blazer, sleeve rolled up of course! What do you think? Tres chic or Tres fou? Is it "hammer time" for any of you guys in fashionbloggerland?

Cuteness from GILT.COM: More Jacobs

Marc by Marc Jacobs SILK FAILLE TIE NECK TOP $84.00, originally $220.00

I LOVE this top! I would pair it with a high waist skirt and a cute thick belt, but $84 really turns into $94 after shipping, and $100 after tax. And when this lovely fuchsia and navy sleeveless top becomes $100 it's no longer worth it. My feeling's are very hurt right now, this recession is killing me. Is the economy affecting your fashion decisions? Hey if it's not and you would like to get in on the GILT Groupe deals, click here, tell em Renee sent ya!
