Alright, alright. I know that title has all you ladies squealing with excitement. And frankly, I don't blame you. But before we jump into the nitty gritty of said-pants, I'll give you some background information...
It was a regular Wednesday night -- me annoying my mom, the dog annoying both of us, and J.Crew doing a 25% off promo [standard, right?]. I took advantage and snagged a few spring break must haves, which seemed to include a pair of cabana pants. I don't own a cabana at this moment in time, but I suppose it may be in my future, so I thought this was a better time than ever to apply the "fake it till ya make it" philosophy to my life.
Well, fast forward to a week later, and these pants have changed my life. They're loose and soft, fit like a glove, and even have the cutest little tassel drawstring -- essentially, a classy girl's sweatpants. Now, if these feel like pajamas, but kind of look like real pants, then we hit the jackpot, right? Right.
Or at least I think so.
If you're prepping your wardrobe for a spring break jaunt, then great -- add these to your cart. If you already happen to be in the midst of your spring break jaunt, order the pants to your hotel room. Don't forget express shipping.
Buy the pants, wear them all day [literally], and thank me for introducing you to their glory.

Just picture it: the blazing sun waking you up, the birds chirping, and the ocean calling. But coffee first, right? Roll outta bed, throw on your cabana pants, plus your favorite striped tshirt and worn in sandals, and you're well suited for a public outing. It will look intentional, I promise -- and that's the best part. Hide behind your tortoise sunglasses, maybe a fedora to tame your mane, and ditch your purse -- there's something amazingly chic about the woman who juggles the car keys, wallet, and coffee cup between her two hands. Try it.
It's time. Time to fry yourself in the sun for an unhealthy amount of time. Hike your cabana pants up as high as can be, and lose the shirt for the day. Add a pair of slides, because God forbid you're not on trend. Sunglasses -- perhaps the same ones from this morning -- and a rafia beach bag would make this even more amazing than it already is. Look, suddenly you're gliding like a Greek goddess.
Hey, this one's risky. But it's time for dinner and wouldn't it be great if you could get away with the same pants? Yes. A stunning silk top and the coolest pair of sandals you ever did see can transform these almost pants into yes, definitely pants. Tuck a corner of your blouse into the waistband; give the tassels one loop so they hang low. An intentionally messy bun or maybe ocean-curated waves and layered necklaces complete this effortless look.
After creating these looks and letting the little voice in my head narrate their fashion story, I realized what it is that I love about these darn pants: they are effortless. They are what the woman I want to be would wear. She breaks the rules, and she doesn't care, because she does it well.
I want to be her. These pants help me to be her. And that is why I love them.
