I’m hooked…

There is a kind of pant that I’m hooked on and I can’t stop wearing -ha!  Do these look familiar?

If you’ve followed along for even just a little while, then you probably know how much I love these pants.  I wear them all the time. I think the main reason I wear them so much is because they are a good blue jean alternative.  You know when blue jeans are a little too casual, but you don’t want to wear your black or white jeans? Well, these are the perfect solution! They are a little dressier than blue jeans and are different than your classic black and white. The green/grey color can be treated like a neutral, and I love that this color adds some unexpected interest to your look. And for those reasons, these favorite pants have been worn out. Literally. They have a hole in the crotch (wawawaaaaa).

But then I was shopping the Nordstrom half yearly sale and found these on sale!  Could it be?!? A replacement for my J Brands that are on sale?!?  Well, as you can see, I’ve been wearing my new pair like crazy. The outfit on the right is a perfect example of what I’m talking about.  I was going up to my son’s school for a meeting.  I didn’t feel quite comfortable wearing blue jeans, but I still wanted to be casual. Oh, and the Old Navy vest was the perfect solution for adding coverage and keeping me warm in the cold indoors.

Wow, who knew a pair of pants could inspire an entire post?!  But after putting together outfits in a clients closet and having the army green color conversation, I knew I wanted to do a post on their versatility in a wardrobe. Here are some other army green options for you:
