flower petal pants


All day I dream through the conversations I have with my mother. She is in Rome right now with my dad and soon will be taking a train to Florence. We only talk through broken telephone calls. Every once in awhile the sound stops working and all I can hear is something that sounds like a bee farm. It's not easy to hear the voice of a loved one so faraway, even worse is to hear their voice fade out like a forgotten dream. 

You start to realize the sky's vast depth and how without those you love around you, you're nothing but a shadow. My parents will be home soon and I plan to squeeze their Italian feast-filled bellies and beg them to never leave me again.

For those of us who follow our nose to the flowers, it sure is nice to add blooms to our wardrobe without having to pull them from the ground. Flower printed jeans are an easy way of making yourself feel garden-bound and ready for the magic that is springtime. They don't require rain nor sunshine to bloom and you won't find them crackling to the passing wind. I try to convince myself to add more solid patterned clothing to my closet but floral always wins.  


The pair I'm wearing are from Nygard. If you haven't heard, they're a North American fashion brand that is committed to making clothes for real women. Real women means 'All' women, no matter the shape or length you walk in. If you want to snag your own pair of printed jeans from Nygard - I'll be hosting a giveaway very soon.  

Until then, love your weekend!

    1. Thank you for commenting Becca xx

      I totally understand - I'm a budget hungry girl myself! It is hard for me to justify splurging on clothing even with a fashion blog to boot! Hopefully you'll enter the giveaway and maybe the stars will align and you'll win ^.^
