Honestly, I’ve never been much of a cropped pants wearer. When I was trying to figure out how to style these for the pictures, I just didn’t know what to wear with them. Generally in my everyday life, I don’t often wear heels and my everyday clothes are pretty casual. That having been said, this pattern can work great for all of that. I do like the pattern (which includes shorts of three lengths and styles, and the pants).

I like that this pattern was easy to fit. I did make adjustments to the pattern (back seam wedge adjustment and shortened the front inseam length). I like that the zipper is actually in the center back of the pants which I didn’t realize until I started sewing them.

While my print isn’t perfectly matched, I’ll forgive myself that for the satisfaction of having a comfortable pair of pants that should take me through Spring and Summer.

For the rest of this month of April, my goal is to work on making some tops (mostly woven) so that I will have more options for things to wear with pieces like these pants and others.
