Jenni NZ, def not TMI. I’d love to get over the saggy soggy sack of pancakes look, but don’t know if I have the kind of dedication that requires, so a good pair of pants is great. And thanks for the bronze compliment. I was surprised, as I went through my finds, to realize that I do indeed have some browns and earth tones in my closet. Thanks for thinking of my son too. He usually has a crash in early Oct, which is about when the German school calendar has a vacation, so I’m waiting hopefully to see if he can avoid the slide and the struggle with depression that follows. So far he is happy & hopeful, but he usually is like that at the start of the school year. (I hope *that* isn’t tmi).
Thanks Gigi. I was thinking it’d be nice to do something a little more interesting than basic black, but think you are right that the grey pair doesn’t do anything for me.
Rachylou, thanks. I’m not sure why I’m not getting better pix. Maybe I need to play around with post-production filters. I’ve had green green pants before, and some of the things that worked with them might work here (did I keep the vest? I hope so!), but I think it’s a more interesting color.
