My Closet: Zips!

Meet my new favorite pair of pants. I seriously love them... we're talking 5-zipper, perfect-fit, olive green marvels.

Style: I've been looking to add some pants with zippered pockets to my closet for awhile now (I love the edginess) so I was pretty excited when I found these Rockstar Zip-Pocket Pants at Old Navy, which feature not only zippered pockets, but zippered ankles as well. Double score. And no, they aren't maternity pants -- but they're forgiving enough that I can still wear them comfortably at 23 weeks pregnant. Triple score.

Fit: They've got just the right amount of stretch. However, they did loosen up some as I wore them throughout the day, so I sized down (the stretch allowed me to do so). The hem hits right at the top of my foot, just like I wanted it to.

Quality: The material is a good-quality cotton twill/chino. They feel well-made and not flimsy, which you don't always find at Old Navy.

Color: They come in olive green, dark gray, and tan. I tried the gray and the olive, and while the gray is a great rockstar option, the olive won out for my wardrobe in the end. The tan I stayed away from -- the color looked like it would make a light-skinned wearer look n-to-the-aked.

Price: Currently $35... unless you use a discount code! I ended up paying $22, thanks to a recent deal they were running online.

So yeah. Remember that one time I posted about wanting to wear my flare jeans again? Don't tell them they have more competition; it will only break their little denim hearts.
