Blush Crush
Words can’t express how in love I am with these pants. I made them with my Luna Pants pattern and a flowy pink rayon twill and they are wicked comfy. Hashtag secret pajamas. I bought the rayon from Indiesew earlier this year but it is now sadly out of stock. Allie stocks such delightful fabrics that I can hardly resist buying at least some yardage every time she releases a new fabric collection. When I made these pants a few weeks ago it was still “summer” in Ann Arbor, so I took some photos with my Gemma tank and Ruby top (and the worst haircut I have probably ever had). Now it’s cooled off quite a bit so I’m wearing them with a camel colored wool cardigan instead (see my post Blush + Bronze for an ode to my current favorite color combination). And obviously NOT SANDALS. You get the idea.
Hmm what else is there to say about these…I just love how fabric choice can completely transform a pattern. In this case, the flowy rayon dresses them up so that I could easily see wearing these out with a silk top for dinner and/or a date. I was definitely inspired by a couple of the photos on my Luna Inspiration boards, though for some reason all of the flowy-rayon-type pants in that post are paired with heels. You will never see me wearing Lunas with heels. You will probably never see me wearing heels, period; that just seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Hooray for being uncoordinated and awkward and therefore fully flat-footed at all times!!!
You can find the Luna pattern in my shop, and I highly recommend trying it with some rayon if you can find it!
