Paperbag pants
Hlače, ki so okoli pasu nabrane in zavezane s trakom ali pasom, spominjajo na papirnato vrečko, ko jo zgoraj stisnemo skupaj. Zato se tudi tako imenujejo. Ob misli na ogromno količino blaga, ki se guba okoli pasu in bokov, si verjetno takih hlač niti najmanj ne želiš obleči.....(nadaljevanje spodaj/ english text below)

..A dejstvo je, da so zaradi priščipnjenega pasu take hlače lahko zelo laskave. Moje so znamka Max Mara kupljene pri 2nd Chance. Kot veš, sem zagovornica ponovne uporabe oblačil, zato tu pogosto kupujem. Iz druge roke je tudi torbica Rebecca Minkoff in pas Gucci, oboje kupljeno na spletni strani Rebelle. Da ne dodajaš nepotrebnih slojev okoli pasu in bogov, izberi oprijet ali pa kratek zgornji del. K takemu kroju hlač (ali krila, tukaj) lahko oblečeš body, saj so okoli pasu komot in lepo skrijejo kakšen kilogramček preveč, za razliko od oprijetih kavbojk, ki se 'zažrejo' v pas. Sama sem jih kombinirala s kratko bombažno bluzo, ki predstavlja odličen kontrast k svili iz katere so hlače, ter sandali z visoko peto.

Paper bag pants are probably not your favorite if we consider the amount of fabric that is gathered right where you don't want to - around your waist and hips, that is. But I assure you that this pants style is nevertheless flattering because of the cinching belt. This type of pants is best worn wit a crop top (like you see on me) or something fitted. This is actually the best pants style for wearing that bodysuit you always wanted because they hide the unwanted belly bulge that skinny jeans doesn't. As you might know by now, I'm advocating the reuse of clothes, that's why my pants, bag and that Gucci belt are second hand, from my favorite stores 2nd Chance and Rebelle.
How about you, do you buy second hand clothes at all? If not, why?
