After School Pants

Another piece for Liddy's capsule.
Oliver+S After School pants
Liddy found these on Witchery and requested something similar.
We used the size 12, no mods to the pattern except adding a ribbing cuff to the hem.
The cloth is a linen look poly/cotton and I top stitched all the seams.
The faux tie is a shoe lace, I picked up a bundle from a $2 shop.
They fit well.
Liddy is very slight, too slim for women's trousers patterns yet, I am so glad these work.
I have a pair planned in navy blue rugby knit, for school. 
Mental note, shop for navy shoes laces.
~Lidia's Verdict~
These trousers are so perfectly fitting and I love the draw string on the waistband and I think it looks perfect with my pink frilly top. 
I love the colour and they will work perfectly with my wardrobe.
I originally found these trousers on Witchery and mum was so clever to make something just like them.
 I love them.

Lidia's blouse is McCalls 7334 , her trousers are After School pants and her boots from Emu (wait for the sales)

  2. She is slender but she's also getting to be quite tall and leggy! These trousers are the perfect casual lounge or work wear! Well done! Always fun to see Oliver + S patterns on older kids!

  3. She has legs forever Inder.
    Zara jokes that she will be flipping burgers to get through Uni and Liddy will swan off and do a modelling gig.
    I made Tilly a denim pair and she pulls them out all the time, I think they like the ribbing cuff.
    Thank you!
