Review: Everlane Stretch Ponte Crop Pant.

I got some pants from Everlane! I totally did. I haven't gotten the jeans yet - those are supposed to arrive today and I fully expect them to disappoint me. Heh.

Today I'm going to review the Everlane Stretch Ponte Crop Pant which is completely Marianne's fault. She got the regular version and (months after buying them) actually wore them and discovered that they're really good. Of course I ordered a pair and I chose the crop version because I thought they might work better with boots. I'm not sure if this was the right move, but maybe y'all can help:

I ordered my usual size 6 and they fit fine. These are tight-fitting but the material is good and thick - they're definitely pants, not leggings. Oh! And they have a center seam/crease that's impossible to see in the photos and doesn't seem to show up in Everlane's product photos either. I was surprised by it but eventually decided it made the pants look more tailored. 

Pretty much immediately I wished I'd just ordered the regular length because the crop hit higher than I want them to and they bunch up a little on my calves (but they do that on the model too? Just the nature of tight pants I guess.) On the whole, though, I REALLY like them. They're crazy comfortable and I love the big side zipper and plain waistband. The more I wore them around the house, the more comfortable they felt. Detail shots: 

I will not be tucking anything into these but I appreciate the lack of buttons and slash pockets. Instead it's just the perfect smooth foundation for my blousy tops to float over. I also love the retro-ish detail of the big side zipper: 

This is what they look like with my favorite Madewell boots (mine are from last year) and I kinda wish they were slightly longer. Should I buy the regular length or just keep these?

I'm clearly overthinking this! Anyway, this is my Everlane link if you feel so compelled and I'll be posting my Everlane denim review later in the week. Now, onto details about the rest of my outfit:

My striped shirt is by Grana (this link gets you 10% off your first order) and I love it so much I have it in two colors! It looks like they still have it in stock in a few colors. I am pretty crazy for a striped shirt and it's everything I can do to not order this one from Everlane or this one from AllSaints. But oh my God can we just stop with this nonsense? PS. This breton dress! So good.

My necklace is from Banana Republic and, while they don't have anything similar in a pendant I do really love this tiered necklace made from the same kind of chain.

I carry my MBMJ Too Hot To Handle Hobo a lot but it's a real workhorse for me. There are still several colors available at Nordstrom Rack so get one while you can. My shoes are a very old pair of Chie Mihara but they still make a really cute red mary jane. I also really love this pair but oh, the price. Too many dollars, Chie.
