STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: C’est La Vie

Skinny jeans have always been a staple in most girls’ closets since the seventh grade when Dickie’s came out with skintight jeans. Fast forward a few years and we have the strange phenomenon of “jeggings” that were meant to be some sort of comfortable hybrid. While we can still hang on to our favorite pair of skinnies, it is time to incorporate some wide leg pants into our wardrobes as we’ve moved into fall. Rachel Zoe has been an advocate of wide-leg trousers for the last few years. Wide leg jeans are great for all body types because they can be worn with tall platforms to create elongating and slimming proportions. Softer fabrics are cool for a more laidback look with flat sandals or platform boots.

Wide-leg pants now have transitioned into softer fabrics than denim, like this Fashionista's. These white and black paisley pants are a great transition piece while it’s still incredibly hot. She paired her pants with a cool, graphic tee knotted at the side. I like that she kept the accessories simple with friendship bracelets and a few bangles. 

These sunglasses are a great twist to a classic shape frame with the blue rim. This Fashionista’s pants are an excellent alternative to the ubiquitous leggings and oversized sweater combination. This is a great fall piece because she can easily pair it with suede ankle booties and a cozy sweater for an easy look at school. The print keeps the look interesting while still managing to maintain an effortless flair.
