Teal and Black Paisley Printed Pants

Hi!  I've been missing this week because of the move, but I'm still around.  We are finally getting settled and beginning to get back to normal.
These pants are newly thrifted.  I never thought I'd be one to buy patterned pants for myself, but I just really liked them so I thought I'd go out on a limb and try this trend finally.  I bought these and one other pair with a floral pattern and more springtime colors that include blue, yellow, green and coral
Today was our final walk through at our old place, a lunch date, and a shopping trip to look for bedroom curtains and a small dinette set for our dining room.
My wardrobe was previously along 2 walls in large, open storage organizers where I could see everything I own at a glance (while sitting in my chair at the computer)...both on shelves and hanging.  Now everything is divided into 2 large closets w/ doors (in 2 separate bedrooms) and a large dresser....so it is quite an adjustment for me to put together outfits and figure out what I'm going to wear when I can't see everything at once and get ideas.  I'm going to have to get used to this new dressing process.
Also...I have not been able to find a location to set my camera to take photos that don't cut off my feet or look dark or blurry.  So, I'm doing the best I can.
Hope you have had a lovely weekend and have a great week ahead. :)
 (Our weather has been gorgeous and I'm loving it!)

  11. Yes, Yes, YES! How come you get to find cute printed pants to thrift and I find nothing but old polyester pants in tan and way-too-loved boot-cut jeans!? Good for you, though. A different look, but so glad you tried it 'cause it works! Pretty, as always.
