WIW: Trouser Week

Alassë

I made the most of last week's temperature dip and wore almost all my remaining trouser outfits. Interestingly, I quickly got trouser fatigue; I'm guessing the outfits themselves were fine, but for my style, 0-2 times a week of pants feels right.

Here are the outfits, and thanks for commenting!

I think 3 is my favourite trouser look: the jeans, the semituck, the belt to finish things off, your hairstyle, they all seem to work together perfectly. It's fun to see the jacket in 7 again with bare arms this time! And 8 is just breathtaking: the details on the blouse and the high waisted skirt are just my cup of tea.

Thank you, E! Your eye for details inspires me, translated to my preference for warm autumn & semi-scoop necklines. Your comments are a joy to read.

Thank you, Diane!

A great week! I love #3 (the colors and semi-tuck draping along with the trousers looks super) and #8 (the blouse's dramatic ruffle paired with the high waisted skirt is so lovely). I hear you on getting fatigued with items that don't feel like "you", though I am the inverse of you Adding in the silhouette changeup is great to keep things feeling fresh.

I also love 3 and 8. I loved the belt in 3 - the colour of it especially. And in 8 the high waist and sweet top is delightful.

I can see why you got trouser fatigue (love that phrase). You look so awesome in a skirt! I really like the skirt photos so much more, even tho you look good in pants. Maybe I am feeling how much happier you are in skirts. I love the charmingly old-fashioned feel of #8 especially. Nice colors too, I am a fan of browns.

You look great in those flares! A 70's inspired trouser look works well for you, I think. What do you think about a 40's inspired pair of trousers? High waisted and drapey like your amazing skirt in #8. Perhaps something like Shevia's recent opera post: http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-la-boheme

Oh pants do get tiring! You look good in them and I bet you would look good in high waisted trousers because you look amazing in that hight waisted skirt in #8. I love you in ruffles. You look like a lovely ballet dancer in 8...perhaps you are a dancer??

Thanks, Beth Ann. The thought crossed my mind after seeing E's outfit in that style, but I'd have to come across a pair to try on.

Thanks, Jeanie. No, not a dancer. Thank you for the 2nd vote for high-waisted trousers,.

You look so graceful in these full skirts! The pants look good too, especially belted with a feminine top like in #3 and #4, but the skirts really stand out.

I think you'll have more luck w high-waisted wide trousers at thrift/vintage stores. And I agree that you'd look fabulous in them!

Thank you, Aubergine.

E, I agree - thrift is likely the place to find them. Thanks for the style vote of confidence!
