I’m actually surprised that these neon pants are still in rotation. I bought them over a year ago and thought they’d be a fad. But at $10, I didn’t mind.
Top: H&M
Pants: The Gap
Upcycled belt: Couch Guitar Straps
Shoes: Flexx
Ring: Etsy Rain craft fair
Well, I love the boyfriend cut and how comfortable they are. And, despite being painfully bright, I like the color. Definitely noticeable. Every time I wear them I get compliments–or at least comments!
Today, instead of wearing neutrals, I went primary. The complementary color to yellow is blue, so I thought that would work. And for fun, I added a red vinyl belt. It’s made from deadstock (unused materials) and would have been a VW seat but sat in a warehouse, unneeded, until the Couch Guitar Straps company rescued the fabric and turned it into belts and guitar straps.
I was trying for an all-color, no black outfit. I did, at least, stick to neutral footwear. Green is a secondary color but I managed to wear by green nerds ring (it’s made of tiny candy set in resin). Not edible, but really fun.
On a side note, now that my hair is longer I’ve been using my Hana flat iron a lot more. I love the results and I’m glad I had the chance to try it as my hair was growing out.
I joined the Anything & Everything blog hop at My Thrifty Chic, Monday Bloom at DC in Style, Style Sessions at Style Elixir and Visible Monday at Not Dead Yet. Check out what everyone else is wearing!

I see what you mean about those jeans – they have a great fit, and the color is so fun. Great styling too! Thanks for sharing with Visible Monday.
Thanks for commenting, Patti! I’m always happy to join Visible Mondays! And yes, fun is a great way to describe these pants 🙂
Primary colors are so fun! You look fab, lady.
Thanks for linking up with Style Sessions!

Thanks Lauren! So glad I found your blog and all the links to other stylish bloggers!
What a colourful match! Great idea for me to combine them, too.
Thank you! I’m glad I could give you some new ideas!
Love those bright pants. They look great with that blue top.
Perfect way to wear ‘um, too. Color block, neutral shoe, simple accessories. Be careful where you wear this outfit, because you WILL get attention, but surely the right kind!
Thank you! I like color blocking and thought a neutral shoe was probably going to keep me from going over the edge!
You got these pants for $10?-noooo way!!! Great find, and you styled this look perfectly!

Thanks! Yes, I found these–only one pair and in my size–in the discount rack in The Gap. Meant to be 🙂
Nice pop of color and nice color combination. Your belt really fits in well as well. Thanks for sharing. Hope you are having a great Summer.
Thank you! I liked going bold. I thought of you today because I bought four pair of ballet flats at H&M. They’re not Tory Burch, but you might like the style. I’ll be showing them in future posts. Hope your summer is going well. Mine is, but it’s flying by!
Ahh, that’s so sweet that you would think of me while buying ballet flats. I’ll be watching for the post. I can’t wait to see them. My Summer is good but also going by too fast. I’ve got something I must show you. I’ll send you an email later today.
Ooh, I can’t wait!
Brian – I got your mail and replied but it bounced back. Can you email me from another account? I’ll try replying to that address. Thanks and love the blue 🙂
