When it comes to workwear staples, I find that I go through phases of being more of a “pants” versus “skirts” person. I’ll “re-discover” say a trusty skirt and wear it over and over again until one day I come across those awesome pants that I love – and then that cycle of high-rotation begins…
VAMFF is a popular time to get *dressed* up however these chic ladies I photographed on their way to the shows reminded me of the power of trousers.

The fabulous Clare of Checks and Spots oozes 70s glamour in this flared style.

In case you didn’t know, Clare has the best accessories and one of them is her smile. #bestintheblogosphere

Chloe’s pairs her trousers with a martial-art-inspired jacket – perfect for transitioning from work to cocktails and fashion shows.

Keep a pair of feature earrings handy to take your work ensemble from day to evening outing.

Trousers don’t always have to be black. The ever-luminescent Gemma Watts of Couturing proves the point in shades of wine – maroon blazer paired with ox-blood trousers. Divine.

Statement lace-up boots adds the edginess needed to keep the matchy-match from looking twee.
So tell me a bit about you. Do you wear the pants?
