How We Style It: Orange you glad we have the same pants?!

A couple of weeks ago, I posted a photo of myself on my Instagram rocking the look above. It was almost 100% Jcrew so I couldn't resist. This past week, I received a comment asking what shoes I wore with the outfit. Another young lady had bought these cords herself and was lost when it came to the shoe choice. 


I thought to myself, how many times have we all been there?! We buy an item that's a little outside (or a lot) our normal look to wear with one outfit in mind and then down the road we struggle with what else to pair it with. This comment inspired me to show how to rock these pants in a variety of looks.


It just so happens that my spirit animal Allison has the same pants (hence the post title) so I asked her to style them as well. Since the bright color trend is not going anywhere anytime soon, the more fabulous options, the better!
