Crop And Roll
I love pants and heels. Especially when the pants are cropped and/or rolled… oh, and pleated. Is it weird that I love pleated pants?
Don’t get me wrong, I wear plenty of skirts and dresses, but my favorite outfits usually include pants. I feel better about this knowing it’s a favorite of Garance Doré too:

Garance Dore was also mentioned in this past issue of Vogue, which made me do a happy dance. I love cropped pleated pants, they can look so fresh on the right body type. I am not one to have that body so I just enjoy seeing it on others! :)
Oh I’ll have to check that issue out! Thanks Allie!
I am SO glad to see this post! I just got a great pair of cropped, cuffed, and pleated pants from Talbots for under $10, and I am excited to wear them now. For a moment there, I was wondering what I was going to do with them; now I know!
What a steal! Happy to help! Sounds like a great pair of pants you got!
