Angie's peach, navy, and brown ensemble seems to have inspired more than one wild card. Ingunn and I have been on a similar wavelength.

I loved the idea of this ensemble. The only problem is that I look like death in all shades of orange and peach. The closest to peach I can come, I think, is the right blush or maybe a rosy beige. And I didn't own a single orange, peach, or coral item.

Then I noticed the Sloan ankle pants on super discount at BR. I figured on me they would probably pass for full length. I have been unbelievably slow to jump on the coloured trousers trend -- so slow that I don't think you can call it a "trend" any more. Oh well. I figured it would be fun and easy to experiment with these.

I got on Pinterest and found lots of inspiration. These are all winter or early spring looks (although I might not get away with pumps as I have tried to do in some.) I have further options for later spring looks.

Some of these are straying away from the blue/ orange/ brown formula, but most do include either blue or brown in some variation.

I have some thoughts about this experiment, but for now, I am curious -- do any of these work, to your eye? Do they look and feel like "me" to you? Which ones? And why?

Oh! And can the pants pass as full length?

Here's my Pinterest board of orange pants: http://www.pinterest.com/Backi.....spiration/
