Tropical Trousers

 

Though perhaps not the most colorful of my novelty pants (which honor probably goes to one or the other pair of zigzag pants), these new ones with a paisley-and-floral motif might be the most cheery.

I think the design speaks for itself, so I don't have much to say about them except that they only cost me 3.20$ at Swap.com. I'm also wearing with them 2 other new items: a white sleeveless blouse (thrift store for $1.50 after discounts) and green sandals (thrift store, 3$ after discounts).

I was tempted to carry on the tropical theme with my plumeria earrings, but then I realized the pants were a pretty close coordinate for my green and orange necklace. I haven't had much opportunity to wear it since its initial outing two St. Patrick's Days ago, so I decided today was the day to bring it back! That's just as well, because while the plumeria earrings cost a pretty penny, the necklace was under my usual 2-dollar maximum, keeping the whole outfit under 10 dollars!
