Making it Work in Mom Pants

These thrifted "Mom" khakis aren't exactly the chic high-waisted skinny trousers of my dreams, but they're definitely on the right track. If they were just a bit narrower and more fitted in the back, they'd be perfect. Perhaps I'll get them tailored, which I have never done!

I tried to minimize the frump factor with a tube top (which is actually an old leotard that I went after with scissors) and some platform wedges. The top doesn't stay up at all. I should probably find a legitimate tube top rather than trying to DIY.

Despite its shortcomings, I'm loving this leggy look.

Top: Thrifted leotard, $2 // Pants: Vintage, thrifted, $1 // Necklace: Vintage, thrifted, $4 // Belt: Vintage, thrifted, $1 // Shoes: alice + olivia for Payless

Wow! An $8 look. That might be a first. (The shoes were a sample from work).
