Trousers: My New Favorite Wardrobe Staple

I never thought I would say this, but I saw a pair of trousers and I knew that my wardrobe needed a pair. I used to think that they only had a place in my grandmothers closet (she used to call them “slacks”), but I now know that they belong as a staple item for anyone who loves comfortable, yet stylish and put together items.

It took a while to find a pair that fit the way I wanted. For size reference, I typically wear a 26 in denim – the waist always fits but sometimes the legs can be slightly snug. This posed a challenge because I found that either the waist fit and the legs didn’t get the effortless “hang” that I was looking for, or the legs fit but the waist was too large. However, after searching for a while I came across a pair that fit like a dream – a perfect waist and legs that draped just enough.

There are endless ways to style these pants. So far, I have a black pair that goes with just about everything. I love casual styling, so my go-to outfit combines my trousers with a cashmere sweater, a long coat (if it is chilly), and a pair of white leather sneakers (and sunnies for an added accessory).
