Do the Running Man

Last year around this time we looked at elastic ankle pants. Little did we know this trend would not only continue this year, it would explode into a trend of it's own: joggers. I love the comfort this piece provides but I fear the pajama look they mimic. So I tend to look for a print that is daytime appropriate and fits well. Let me show you what I mean.

Macy's, Style & Co Printed Soft Jogger Pants, $32

See what I mean? Adding a great heel to these pants makes them work appropriate or date night ready.

Asos, Vero Moda Floral Print Jogger, $50

A bright white pant is perfect for a summer night. These pants are also available in petite!

Macy's, NY Collection Drawstring Printed Jogger, $28

Who doesn't love an allover ikat print? Right. And pockets.

Shoptiques, Leggsington Aztec Jogger, $23

You won't find me in this crop top anytime soon but these pants? I love these pants.

The jogger trend is pretty great for ladies who love comfort, oh wait, that's all of us. All of the options above are machine washable and $50 or under.

Don't Fear the Ankle

Sometimes fashion can be scary. You're not sure if the trend is going stick and if it does, can you pull it off? Remember when we feared color blocking? How about jeggings? Exactly, sometimes we have to embrace change and tailor the trend to work for us. 

What's today's 'can I really wear this' trend? The cinched ankle pant. Not full on harem, not sweats, a comfortable day to night dress pant that I think we can all wear. 

JCPenny, Bisou Bisou Ankle Zip Smocked Pants, $21

A great geometric print that is more streamlined with a pair of black stilettos.

Macy's, American Rag Printed Harem Pants, $39

I really like the contrasting waistband that dresses up this pick.

White House Black Market, Tapered Crepe Pant, $49

This is the best version of a day to night option. Simple, chic and with the change of a shoe or earring you're ready for date night.

Last Call Neiman Marcus, Greylin Pull On Wide Graphic Print Satin Pants, $89

Another great geometric print that can be worn during the day with metallic flat sandals and in the evening with a pair of heels.

If you're still on the fence, I totally get it. Look for a fabric that you feel comfortable in. Something with a little more weight to them, Try drawstring, try zip up, try solid, try print. Find what works for you.
