Week 3
Floral Pants:
After months of much cold and daylight deprivation; when I
think of Summer, or more so Spring, I associate it with warmth, rebirth, invigoration
and all that is brought about with the sun’s radiance. I imagine green and fuller
trees along with flowers blooming. Flowers are a key theme in Spring and so its
only logical that they have made their way into clothing as an attempt to capture
and embody all the pleasantries that is Spring and Summer.
Styling Details:
I am wearing a pair of vintage J.Crew floral print pants
which I purchased back in 2001 and recently tailored to better suit my build. The
pants are a pale grey-blue with faded light blue floral accents (some
comparable alternatives at Bonobos or Asos). I coupled the pants with a white Nehru collar and
tuxedo bib traditional Indian Kurta shirt from Zara. I chose a white shirt so as to create
a contrast with the pants but not necessarily take away from the main
attraction. But what I like is that interestingly enough, albeit a white shirt,
its design and cut garners its own attention. I purchased the shirt five years ago
but since then they have been more readily seen and available today as the Kurta
has become a very popular cut within the recent street wear. Lastly, I finished
off the ensemble with my favorite and comfortable pair of black velvet slippers
and topped it all off with a pair of retro spectator round tortoise sunglasses.
