My harlem pants


I saw this romper that I adored in a clothes store I think it was Citi Trends. You would have thought that it was a dress at first. Anybody that knows me know that i have to eye disect the whole outfit.
I am always courious as to how certain clothes are contructed. Even though i know i like to see how the particular brand made it.
Then I look up under what i thought was the skirt part of the dress. I was in shock. I said in a low voice what the hell is this.
After looking, touching and feeling and disecting it with my eyes, I said mmmm..... this is kinda cute. It was a light blue jean material and it had a poof skirt section which was sewed together so that it look like a big pant. the leg part had elastic in it. It was also a tube top style dress. After looking at it I said to myself I can make that. But i always say that never make nothing maybe something close.

I look all over the net for 2 days for the name of this attire. I think I want to go back and get that outfit and post it here although I am sure people have seen this outfit before.

Finally that second day I said to myself well they almost look like those pants that the tukish people wear. I statred looking up turkish pants. Guess what popped up? MC Hammer pants. I said to myself DAH.

So now that i am on the right track maybe i will find them. Nope I did not find the exact outfit. But what i did find was an idea for somthing else. I came up with this bright idea of mine. I have a stash of clothes that I have made years ago and a ton of stuff that I want to refashion and this is what I came up with. A pair of Harlem/Turkish pants or whatever you want to call them. I don't like how the fit me though. I will eventually make a pair that i like because they are so easy.
