I don't have the same pair (at $15 I wish I did) but mine are extremely comfy and I know I will be getting a lot of wear out of them this season.&nbsp;<br />The shoes look worn but if a Sharpie fixes that, go for it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-911012 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 10:13:57 +0000 Anonymous 911012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks really fun too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910941 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 05:30:34 +0000 CocoLion 910941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love this Natalie! &nbsp;One of my favorites. &nbsp;It's so colorful and on trend, while very flattering. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910928 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 04:55:35 +0000 Beth Ann 910928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love this look, Natalie!&nbsp; I'm least fond of the lace insert in the top, but no matter, the overall effect is stunning.&nbsp; Good job with the sharpie!&nbsp; Wardrobe maintenance --- the bane of the working mom!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910833 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 01:56:26 +0000 Jaime 910833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the lace bomber with the lace top! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910828 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 01:52:58 +0000 Angie 910828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look SO FUN!! <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910825 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 01:51:17 +0000 Sarah A 910825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love both #1 and #11, although I am not sold on the shoes. The overall look is super fun... I like how you posted the inspiration pics for us again too. Thanks!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910734 Thu, 18 Apr 2013 01:01:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 910734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You big sweetie :)<br /><br />Way to rock those floral trousers Natalie! And I absolutely LOVE the pairing with that gorgeous clutch. I like the outfit equally with the lace bomber (beautiful) or with just the shirt on its own. For some reason, I'm not as crazy about it with the leather jacket but I can't really articulate why. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910535 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 22:00:27 +0000 pil 910535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love those pants on you Natalie! I think I prefer the relative simplicity of #11, but that's just me. Would a simple black tee work with with lace bomber? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910519 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:42:04 +0000 Sara L. 910519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ooh, I love this outfit!&nbsp; Too bad I'm wearing my floral pants today (will post WIW soon) or I would copy this tomorrow.&nbsp; I have a black button-down that would work perfect.&nbsp; I like the pointy-toed shoes and will confess to using the Sharpie trick as well. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910515 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:40:25 +0000 catgirl 910515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I LOVE the pants. It's a little TMGO for me but perfect for you. &nbsp;The black keeps it from being Way-TMGO.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910507 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:32:06 +0000 Kathleen M 910507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love the pants! And I like #8. Mixing the lace pieces looks cool, but the necklace is a bit much IMO. That bag is also amazing! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910491 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:15:15 +0000 goldenpig 910491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Anna, I tried coloring the shoes with Sharpie and from a distance, it's not bad at all!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910421 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 19:11:08 +0000 goldenpig 910421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ &nbsp;You're right Anna, I noticed that too when I looked at the pics. Maybe I'll have to pull out a Sharpie marker... ;)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910419 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 19:09:27 +0000 annagybe 910419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love it. But the toes are far too worn on the shoes. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910415 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 19:01:02 +0000 rachylou 910415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have those pants so I am not the person to listen to...<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-417-lace-bomber-floral-pants-big-necklace#post-910406 Wed, 17 Apr 2013 18:51:26 +0000 goldenpig 910406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I've been wanting to pull out this lace bomber for a while now, but finding it tricky to style. I really wanted to pair it with my H&amp;M floral pants. And I recently bought a black lace-trimmed blouse by Prabal Gurung on clearance at Target for $10 so I wanted to see if I could use that as well. I was having trouble with the fit of the <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-j-crew-tuxedo-shirt" rel="nofollow">J Crew tuxedo shirt </a>and it was too boxy and boyish, so I'm using this black one instead. It's also a loose fit, but more feminine because it's silky and has lace on it (I also like the faux leather collar). I think it's more my style than the androgynous tux shirt. I also wanted to try a big necklace as <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/04/16/eight-flattering-necklines-for-the-big-necklace///" rel="nofollow">in Angie's post</a>, so I'm using my bubble necklace and pairing it with my aqua jeweled clutch, which echoes the shape of the big stones. And these super-pointy kitten heels are so old (from the 90's), that I think they may have finally come back in style now, what do you think? Or are they still too pointy?<br /><br />I was also inspired by <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---angie-formula-easter-outfits" rel="nofollow">SaraL</a> and <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-a-summer-dress-in-the-snow" rel="nofollow">Shannon</a> in their recent WIW posts--Sara had floral pants with black blazer and bubble necklace, and Shannon had a floral dress and leather jacket and bright handbag. So this is sort of a combination of the two. <br /><br />I know this a little (well a lot) ALGO...but is it TMGO? it's a little outside my comfort zone with the trendiness and maximalism. I felt very fashion blogger-y wearing this to drop off DS at preschool. But I just cannot seem to stop wearing these $15 H&amp;M pants, even though they are loud, DH hates them and Angie doesn't like the cropped length. What do you think--keep wearing these pants? I know they are not the most flattering but I can't resist. They are just fun and make me smile.<br /><br />I also peeled off some layers and switched the jacket for a leather jacket to see if you like it more streamlined/simplified. Let me know which version you think is the best. Thanks for looking and for your comments!<br /><br />1. With lace bomber and bubble necklace<br />2. With bubble necklace but no jacket<br />8.
