Let's Talk Style: These pants from Banana Republic

Here's a little honesty, I use to stay away from this brand because they're expensive. But when I learned some of their products are made from the Philippines, I regress my stance. I'm all for supporting jobs for my countryman. Work gives purpose and dignity to people's lives.

Take it from me, I've been in and out of work since the birth of my son. A month before he came, I resigned to look after him full-time. Then went back to work to take care of my mental health. Check out The 7 Ways that Help Me Overcome Depression here. A few months after I got employed, I lost it again when Covid-19 hit. Today, I'm back to work. (Phew, what a confusing read.)

From my experience, I concluded work is good, whether in business, as an employee, or whatever our hands find to do. It's our way of giving back and making a difference to our community, no matter how small it may be.

Back to the pants...

The truth, I bought it at the outlet store. Why not? It's 40% off. Actually, the regular price items are too much for my budget. (lol) I'm amazed to find the fabrics from Banana Republic cooling, perfect for the warming weather.

They offer petite sizes too. Yay! You see, I'm a vertically challenged woman -- quite noticeable in the photos -- finding pants in the right fit and length takes patience and time. 

Although my go-to brand, H&M, sells affordable style, I still have to pay extra to have them altercated. 

Unfortunately, I can't link you the exact pants since it's from the outlet. But I found similar styles below. The middle has the closest resemblance. Click the image link to check it out.
