I promise this isn't a fashion blog, but I love clothes. When you're passionate about something, it's only natural to write and rant about it in detail. Two weeks ago, my little cousin Jasmine called me asking how I felt about pants for a homecoming dance. Homecoming dances were a big deal in high school, and girls used it as an excuse to buy a new formal dress they'd only wear once. So when my cousin asked me this, I was shocked, but completely supportive.
"Yes! Wear velvet pants and add heels. It's classy and makes you stand out, but in a good way." I also told her to be careful her outfit didn't come off as lesbian. She called me the next day and told me how many people complimented her outfit.
Then, today, I came across an article on Vogue's website (that I adore so much) titled:
Put on Your Party Pants: Meet the Season’s Chic Answer to the Cocktail Dress. Yes. My little cousin is a bad A and was one step ahead of the trends. There are so many different pant styles that are just as flirty and flattering as a cocktail dress. You can go with velvet, satin, flares, etc. and dress it up however you want! In the article, there are several cute (but very expensive) pants that scream, "center of the party!" I would enter the price of each pant, but I don't want to cause my readers heartache.
Adam Lippes- straight leg denim pants
J. Crew- wide cropped sequined trousers
Marni- viscose satin pants
