Jacqi pants! Versatile harem pants/jumpsuit.

The Jacqi harem pants just came in!  Inspired by Jacqi, a mom of 3 kids who lives here in Venice, CA.  A native Australian, I love Jacqi's style.  One of her sons recently told her he wanted her to wear more jeans and sweat pants (so LA!).  Her other son said "No!  Mom is cool just the way she is"... I couldn't agree more!    Jacqi lives in harem pants and was the inspiration for this super versatile style...shown here with a fab flower clip (sold separately).

They can be worn as pants, or as a jumpsuit.  Shown below in chocolate as pants, with a seamless tank ($28), Frances black sweater ($98), snake necklace ($35), and fun bracelets ($18 and up). 

Shown below in solid black as a jumpsuit...

 Made in a super versatile (and machine washable) jersey.  Black and chocolate brown.  $98.  

in production...fall cowl sweaters

In LA, if the temperature dips below 80, we all start bundling up. Since it's a desert climate, it's cold, it's hot, it's cold. We need our layers. I'm working on fall designs and I love this new style. The Lorisa (named after a friend of mine in Philly).

I met with one of my pattern makers (seen above and below) and tweaked the sample by making the sleeves slimmer, adding thumb holes, and a detachable hood/cowl that looks like it's really attached, but can be worn separately if you need so. I'm road testing this style to make sure the fabric holds up with my wear and tear. Take a look.

Ooh! I like it already...

More styles are in the works. I can't wait to share them with you. (fyi - the harem pants I'm wearing are also in the works. I'm working on colors, a groovy waistband, and more). XO, M.E.
