I'm absolutely in love with these, they have such a boho vibe. I used this gorgeous bubble crepe from ABC Fabric, and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. I made the 28" inseam to suit my 5'0" height, opting for the mid-rise tiered version with a cute little front patch pocket.

I've paired mine with the Janie Boatneck Top for the perfect summer outfit!
