Gauze: My Favorite Summer Material

Thursday, May 24, 2012

The love I have for gauze pieces is the kind that will last forever and always. I wore my beloved gauze little white dress from J. Crew so many times, it literally wasn’t fit for public display anymore. Haha! I have more gauze skirts than I can count. And don’t get me started on my gauze coverup collection. This glorious fabric is light, airy and oh so comfy. Essentially, it’s the perfect summer material!

So, when I came across these gorgeous gauze pants from Free People, I knew I had to have them! The smocked waist line makes them perfect for my post baby bod and the emerald hue would look smashing in a colorblock look or against stark white! Plus, they remind me of Carrie from This Free Bird and I adore her free spirited style!

So, help me decide lovelies…Are they worth the $98.00 price tag?

Oooooh Iove these! I’m always attracted to gauzy pieces but I don’t think I own a single one. These would be an awesome addition. I love the idea of color blocking with them!

Call me crazy, but there just aren’t many articles of clothing that I think are worth $98. A winter coat or a pair of high quality running sneakers – sure. A beautiful dress for a super important event – maybe. But pants? I’m sorry, I just think these are a little overpriced. Then again, this is coming from an unemployed blogger on a budget. So, you know, take my opinions with a grain of salt :)

I LOVE them.

Alas, I am barely 5’1″ and they would never work on me.

So you MUST buy them :)

Those aren’t something I would typically like, but I really love them! The color and flowy style are too cute–you should go for them!

Absolutely yes, you will definitely get your money’s worth.

I’m curious…is it just me or is there a weird ‘bunching’ along the panty line? Love the pants, but I’d be curious if that ‘bunching’ is a flaw…like don’t think of wearing underwear in these pants.
