In keeping with everyone in the world, ever, I love Audrey Hepburn. Her class, her style, her gorgeous looks, her talent. She reminds me of my grandmother, and spending afternoons with her watching My Fair Lady. I remember being devastated when I found out she was no longer alive. I mean, seriously. She was stunning. I mean, the woman had a pet deer, and she hung out with donkeys. Seriously.
So in true desperately-wishing-I-was-more-like-Audrey fashion, I have been wanting a pair of black skinny cigarette pants for ages. I wasn't willing to spend much, so when these beauties presented themselves to me when I was shopping with Sal at The Mexican Shop, I knew we were made for each other. I love how simply swapping out a skirt for pants changes the feel of an outfit without totally altering its style. I am so loving this remix project! What do you all think so far?
p.s. Want some new earrings?

This is one of my favorite looks from the awesome detailed vest to the yellow top and the purple shoes! Those trousers fit you perfectly, too. Love!
Those pants are super cute! I have longed for cigarette pants for a while as well
Those pants are adorable on you! I love this style of pants!
And the hair is Audrey Hepburn inspired, no? You look fab!
Your legs look long and lean (does that sound creep?) and the colours are great together...hmmm...also, what is this Mexican shop place? thrift? or what?
I just adore this color combination.....chartreuse and plum are my favorite! I love your inspiration, gorgeous!
Thank you for all of your well wishes! You are so sweet! :)
Oh I'd never seen that donkey photo before! Like I needed an excuse to love Audrey more?!
I'm loving this project of yours, I like how each outfit is still unique.
You can really wear skinny jeans, they look great on you! And as you said yourself, just replacing the skirt with a pair of jeans really makes a big differenct to an outfit. Love them both!
I'm also on the hunt for a great pair of black skinny cigarete pants. Not an easy hunt either! Yours look great!
Wow, spectacular pants! This outfit is adorable on you. I wish I had your remixing talent- you always make everything look so different. Love it!
