It probably seems like I have an endless collection of patterned pants, but I assure you that’s not true (I can dream though…). These I got from Zara during their last blowout sale, but could only get them a size bigger than I needed – it actually turned out okay though, since they’re perfectly breezy and slouchy in this size. The dots are also a cool paint stroke sort of pattern, and I think they look pretty awesome with just a plain black top (and they’re high waisted, so they’re perfect for crop tops! Score!). I’m planning to live in these this summer, and I linked to another cool black and white pair if you’re in need (and you are, trust me).

Side note, my Birkenstock wearing is actually becoming a problem and all my other shoes are probably feeling sad and neglected. These shoes are life changing, and you need them if you don’t already have them.

Patterned pants. Something I was hesitant to embrace a few years back, but have come to love and wear a lot. It was love at first sight with this floral pair (sadly they’re no longer available), and they’ve already become one of my most-worn items this season. They’re one of those occasional, weird H&M finds that’s surprisingly high quality. The material is substantial and has fantastic movement, and the oversized patch pockets are trimmed with lime green piping. I tend to wear them with my favorite white tee (and some metallic pink platforms), but also love them paired with a soft pink top and Birks. And – because I can’t gush about them enough – these pants are perfectly high waisted and the legs are super wide, making them unlike any other pair I own.
