drawstring pants
April 22, 2014Drawstring pants are the pieces in your wardrobe that screams for attention. They’re super attention seekers. They want to be seen. The only way to wear them is to show the strings off, there’s no other way around the styling manual. Otherwise, you will have a bump sticking out from your tummy only to receive unwelcomed congratulatory comments.
So you know what that means.
Tuck. In. Blouse.
These casual pants are always a go-to for me on those lazy days. If only they were acceptable in the corporate world, every girl would live in them. All day err day. I wouldn’t recommend wearing drawstring pants to work because let’s be honest here.. they’re track bottoms with fancy material. Unless of course you work at FashionValet (I could’ve sworn someone came in with pyjama pants once and no one said a word…)
For these pants I wore here, the first thing I noticed was the print. The modern taste, the coolness of the geometry, the colour combination that kept it simple, and the super affordable price, I wouldn’t even mind if they didn’t fit right (Which they excelled in as well, thankfully). I did the front tuck for this not because I wanted to.. but because I stained the bottom of my top and had to hide it somewhere. Further proving my point that even nature is making me tuck in when wearing drawstring pants.
If you’re not into tucking in, you can also wear drawstring pants with a tucked in tank top underneath a long cardigan or a sharp blazer. Your boss will never notice you’re wearing fancy track bottoms to work. Have fun styling!
Wearing top from Ramune and pants from Sabs Store, both FashionValet. Scarf from dUCk, bag from Prada and flats from Chanel.Â
Vy..that tudung. How do you style it?
Proudduck..are you wearing FLATS????
That pants from Sabs Store- is it long pants or is it a three quarter pants.? it looks like its a pair of long pants, the way you style it. But it doesn’t look that long in your fashionvalet.com site.
This look is so bold and stunning!! And the color combinations are just perfect. I’m going cuckoo over it now.
You gotta wear more geometric patterns like this Vy. You pull it off so damn nicely! c:
I don’t know if you’ve heard this question before or not, but just what kind of camera do you use? the quality oh wow
you really know how to style your scarves eventhough it hasnt been long since you first started wearing it. i’ve been sporting it for almost 3 years now and I have only one style of wearing the pashmina. pin bawah then lilit kat belakang then bring it to the front blah blah, and I have quite a few tudung express. but I would really love to wear it casually like yours here. tried once, it didn’t work for me. partly because my face is too round for it. or something is just wrong with me! haha! anyway would really really love to see a tutorial from you one day 🙂
Nadia & s: I experiment a lot and then I forget how I did it -____-” But I shall write them down and compile it into a tutorial one day hehe.
Clementine: sometimes I like to go out of character a bit. Am back in heels today, phew! Bahahaha.
Max: I think they’re more of cropped pants, but of course on me, they’re long pants. Haha.
Deeds: Thank you darling!
opi: I use a Nikon D500. Hope that helps!
I can’t find the pants in store! Is it sold out? Will it be restocked?
