It makes me chuckle when I read a blogger’s glowing review of the world’s most wonderful, flattering, fabulous pants/jeans, because what’s perfect for some bodies will be horrendous on others, and vice versa.

So I’m not going to tell you I found the best pants ever, because inevitably, someone will get the same pants based on my advice and decide they’re the worst pants ever. But I will say that I freaking love these Everlane pants and I already ordered them in another color. If your hips are wide relative to your waist (I have about a 12″ difference) and it’s more in the width, not so much a big booty, these are worth a try if you want non-denim casual pants. They run big, but I got my usual size because I didn’t want them to be tight. (I’m also wearing the short length, and I’m 5’3″ for reference.)

While we’re on the subject, I just want to remind you ladies that if pants don’t look good on you, there’s something wrong with the pants, not your body. I mean, you’re smart – I know you know this. But a reminder never hurts.

A few weeks ago I went to visit one of my best college friends who had twins last summer. You know she must be a special friend if I’ll go visit not one but two babies. Yes, they are adorable, but holy crap is the idea of twins terrifying. I mean, one parent leaves the room and suddenly you’re outnumbered by newborns. And even if you want two kids, there’s no practice child, so if you screw up, congrats – you’ve just given the world two serial killers with freaky telepathic twin skills.

But worry not, people of central Indiana – I feel pretty confident these particular twins are on a good, non-homicidal life path, so you can rest easy. However, they might SLAY you with their cute onesies and pudgy-cheeked smiles. 😉

I’m sure you’d rather see photos of cute babies, but instead you’re stuck with me, enjoying my friend’s leftover Chinese New Year décor!
