Outfit Post: Go Wide



The Outfit: Shirt: Elizabeth & James (similar herePants: Karina Grimaldi (Old) |   Necklace: Vintage, but similar here | Initial Necklace:West Avenue Necklace  |  Lips: Bobbi Brown Shimmer Lip GlossPurse & Shoes: Dee Keller Designs   |  Earrings: (old) SEE below for similar! |   Bracelet:  | Sunglasses: Persol Sunglasses

This outfit is a little out there for me, but I decided I would go for it because I LOVE the wide leg pant trend/style. It’s classy and sophisticated, but also has a little 70’s chic look to it. Don’t you think? I guess the only hard part about this trend is where to wear something like this.  I wore this outfit to dinner with my parents and boyfriend, but I might also wear it to a nice lunch. Thoughts? The best part about these pants is how comfortable they are – it feels like you’re wearing sheets :) And the sunglasses I’m wearing are a little old school, but I think it’s fun to mix it up sometimes (They are my mom’s :))

The pants I have on are 2 years old, but I put together some of my favorite wide leg pants for this season. My favorites are the Top Shop polka dots and The Red Alice + Olivia trousers. I think the Alice + Olivia ones could even be great in the professional world if you wear a subtle button-up to tone it down. Maybe? But even so, I just love them!
