I got this... hmm... around 7 years ago. It's made of like a felt/wool like material with embroidery in the front. Don't let my horrible photo taking skills fool you, it's black black black. I had a hard time coming up with a warm, fall colored outfit but managed this:
Augh, I did not like this outfit at all. I don't know, I just felt a bit uncomfortable in it. The poor lighting makes the color seem much more muted than it actually was. lime-ish green and burgundy made me feel retro in a not so good way. I just don't think I'm a big fan of burgundy in general. The pants were a huge disappointment. It's the exact same pants as my all time favorite, favorite, black Tripps but in burgundy. The fit, however, seemed a bit off and the fabric was a bit stiffer- maybe 'cause it's new? Maybe it'll feel just as good after washing it a few times? This was the first time wearing and look what I noticed like 10 minutes into the day:
A $40 pair of pants shouldn't split at the seem after one freaking wash- even if I did only pay $6 for it. Come on now! To make it worse, the split happened on my upper right thigh- a very embarrassing place to have split. Thankfully, it's double stitched so I wasn't flashing any skin but it's definitely going to need to be mended before I wear it again.As for the bag, I think it'll make a nice winter bag, even if it is small. My mom has the same bag but in a much bigger size so I think I'll just "borrow" that bag.

I've noticed that fairly often the same pair of pants fit differently in different colors/washes. That's so stupid. The worst was when I needed a 2 in one color and a 6 in the other color at Old Navy of the exact same jeans. I know I told you about that but I'm still amazed.
