Taken from Elle's Street Chic: New YorkI am personally in two-minds about this whole outfit. I can see that she's trying to do the avant-guarde, Annie Hall thing, and that's fine. But I can't help but feel that she could have done a lot better.
But for the sake of it, let's break it down:
I love the hat, simple top and bag, and the way she's rocking neutral and basic colors. When wearing an out-there outfit, it's always best to keep to low-key colors.
Unfortunately, the proportions of the pants aren't working for me. It doesn't look flattering at all, and makes her looks like she has saddlebags to rival pack-mules. Not attractive. It also shortens her legs, making what must have been a petite girl look downright stumpy and fat. Why would anyone do that to herself??? And what is that massive pleat doing on her belly? Is the belt supposed to help 'cinch' things? Because if so, it's NOT working.
Also, the sandals don't seem to be in keeping with the entire theme she's trying to rock. Perhaps some mary-janes would have worked better, in an unexpected color. It's a hard call. Damnit, if only those pants were a tad shorter or longer! Make up your mind!
That's my two-cents worth. What do you guys think? On, or off the street??

Lol that is the fugliest pair of pants in the world. Why would anyone purposely wear something to look fat? Hahaha!
Yes the pants are ugly.......but she's really thin....so I dont' think I would call her fat....
agreed, she's not fat, but those pants certainly don't do her any justice!
