CUERPO BLOG: j crew minnie pant

Yay for Thursday! Who's super happy we're almost finished with the work week?!

Today's edition of Cubicle to Cocktails features the lovely little mini pants, or cropped pants, or whatever you want to name them. I've featured these little pantalones before, but I just heart them so much I needed to showcase another look with them.

I think this cut is appropriate for most business casual situations - I mean come on, you're showing ANKLE. Gasp, wince, sob. Fit is utmost important with these pants - no one wants to be able to count the change in your back pocket....you know what I mean? Of course you do!

So, without further adieu, here is today's Cubicle to Cocktails! I love pairing a flowy, printed tunic with these pants and amping up the shoes and accessories for nighttime.

What do you think of today's CTC edition?

Hi all! Today's edition of Cubicle to Cocktails features one of my favorite, but underused, clothing items - a vest. I realized, just the other day, how much I like these little sleeveless wonders, but I don't sport them very often.

I think the cubicle vest is very work appropriate and can also look great with jeans. The black pants are very similar to J Crew's Minnie Pant (but at half the price). Although the ankle length can look awkward on some, I think it's a fresh take on the typical office black pant.

I'm also a big fan of bright bags for both work and play. This pink patent ASOS bag looks great with so many color options. As for the cocktails look, isn't the studded black vest adorable?! Pair that sucker with a slouchy white tank an layer on some delicate jewelry and you are golden (hardy har har).

So, what do you think of this look? Would you wear these ankle length pants to work? How about to cocktail hour - if so, what would you pair them with?
