WIW: Day 4 no heels Tomboy in lilac and gray

This is a silhouette I'm very comfortable with: Skinny pants, fitted top, converse-style tennies and comfy scarf.

It's similar to weekend wear but with dressier pieces - the pants are gray trousers that used to be more of a boot cut shape but because of my longer legs, were never long enough to wear heels with so I altered them myself. The sweater is a pretty dusty lilac cable knit. Shoes are in the lilac family too, but more of a pink shade. I decided on this Indian Blue scarf so as to be not completely dichromatic, and my socks are super fun argyle purple, gray and pink which somewhat matches my lipstick.

One thing I can't decide on is whether to roll up the pant hems and reveal the fun socks a bit (ok a lot!) more, or leave the pants down. Opinions??

Oh, and even my undergarments match today, which makes me supremely happy

So CUTE! I think this outfit is great as-is, but I would also play with the hem. Just to see how you like it

I think both ways look great, with the pants rolled and not rolled.

The scarf is a great punch of colour against the paler lilac and grey - really nice! If I were at work, I'd be more inclined to leave the pants as is ; outside of work it would cool to show off the socks by rolling the cuffs....both are nice.

Lovely smoky colours and then the punch of unusual blue adds a playful touch. I like your pants as they are, but as Lisa said you could roll them when in a more casual setting.

You look GREAT. I must have missed Day 3. I'll go back and see if I can find it.

My work setting is rather casual, and I liked the look so I left my pants rolled

You are super cute

I'm laughing, tho. Because I'm willing to blind people at work by wearing the below (as in they said literally, *whoa, blind me!*), but I'd never dare roll my cuffs at work.
