Much consideration was given on whether to purchase them or not.<br /> Some of my criteria included:</p> <ul> <li>Must suit my new 3 word style descriptor of Chic, French, Charm</li> <li>Mix and match with my current wardrobe</li> <li>Fit with my casual lifestyle</li> </ul> <b>Item </b><b>1) ON grey wide-leg jeans</b>. I wanted to add a different colour wide-leg jean to my wardrobe. The rise is just slightly high waisted, pant width isn't extreme. They feel very comfortable to wear.</p> <p><b>Item 2) Columbia fleece half-zip top</b>. I had my doubts about the pattern at first. It seemed rather busy to me, but I was surprised on how it looked after I tried it on.</p> <p>Photo1) New top and grey wide-leg legs together<br /> Photo 2) Adding my black down vest<br /> Photo 3) Pattern Top with my Gap burgundy cords<br /> Photo 4) Adding my black down vest again<br /> Photo 5) Trying my Frank and Oak black speckle cardigan.<br /> Photo 6) Close-up of the texture of black cardigan </p> <p>I hardly wear much pattern in winter, but adding this top, with its little hits of pink, seems a nice, cozy pattern to brighten my winter wardrobe.</p> <p>Any thoughts or suggestions are most welcomed. </p>
