How To: Harem Pants
Generally my morning routine looks like this:
- Gym/hit the snooze button (usually the latter happens)
- Put kettle on to make coffee
- Stumble to the shower. Emerge clean, and if I'm lucky, with washed hair and some sort of make up on
- COFFEE
- Get Flynn out of bed/dressed/ready for childcare
- Feed Flynn breakfast/skull my coffee
- Put dog out/feed said dog
- Look at the clock - realise we're running late (my friends will all vouch for this)
- Distract Flynn with cartoon/toys/anything
- Race to bedroom - grab something, conduct the sniff test, check for grubby marks, throw on
- Grab Flynn
- Find keys
- Lock door
- Unlock door, go back inside and grab forgotten item
- Get in car, wipe off fresh dirty marks on previously clean outfit
- Leave 10 minutes late
Now maybe I'm just the Queen of Organised Chaos. However something tells me I'm not the only one who's time poor in the mornings. Throw a toddler in the mix and I'm happy to say it's a damn miracle I get anywhere at all some days. Anyways back to the point. As much as I love dressing up in different looks, I really don't have time to dedicate to it in the morning. So instead I like to have fail-proof easy outfit combinations ready for the busy mornings. I could be extra organised and lay them out the night before, but to be honest if it is clean and out of harms way then I'm happy.
Harem pants fall into this category. They are a wardrobe staple that I pretty much live in. Comfortable, practical, versatile & universally flattering. Dress them up, wear them casual. Add a heel or go for flats. For the first instalment of our 'How To' series I've demonstrated the multiple ways they can be styled.
