Pants of the Month: Vintage Lily Pulitzer Butterfly Pants

These are the bad boys that I remember most clearly from my youth and the pair that started it all. Back when I was getting my Master of Fine Arts in Writing for Children and Young Adults at Hamline University, I wore the butterfly pants to the program’s opening reception for fun.

After that, if I ever showed up to a lecture or other event in khakis or jeans, I was met with sad faces and sighs. So, I started wearing all my awesome pants whenever possible. Who am I to disappoint a bunch of award-winning Kid Lit authors?
