Paper or Plastic

This post is inspired by a pair of pants I just bought. That's right, sometimes I do buy the stuff I post. Today is one of those days. You are about to see a fantastic pair of pink pants. Not just pink pants. These pants are perfect for work or play because you can add heels or sandals with this paper bag waistline.

Asos, Wide Leg Pants with Paper Bag Waist, $45

I mean hello. Punchy color with a high waist. 

Dynamite, Cindy High Rise Cigarette Linen Pant, $49

Breezy and casual.  A must have in white for summer.

Free People, White Like This Paper Bag Pant, $98

A great straight leg option that comes in three other colors.

Macy's, Rachel Roy Tie Dyed Paper Bag Pants, $89

I love the white and blue pattern because it goes with just about anything.

The paper bag waist line is great for a more casual look. Look for it in skirts, pants, or shorts.

Cropping Time

Let's talk spring pants. Your calves aren't quite ready for prime time because it appears they've spent several months in hibernation from the sun and, well, your razor. Enter, the wide leg crop. It is chic and sophisticated while still being spring appropriate with the perfect blouse.

Colorful Crepe Crops

Yesterday we looked at some unlikely workwear bottoms, today I thought we would keep the trend going with some crepe crop pants. They're perfect for summer because they're light and easy to pair with a simple top and a statement necklace.

Target, Stretch Crepe Elastic Waist Pant, $45

I mean, come on. These pants just scream spring! Rosy pink that you can dress down with flats or dress up with some heels and a blazer.

Nordstrom, Halogen Wide Leg Crop Pant, $78 $31

55% off? Don't mind if I do! Love this minty blue pastel color!

Dorothy Perkins, Black Crepe Wide Leg Crop Trouser, $44 $27

Looking for something basic? Try these black pants to wear with some bold prints and button downs.

Nordstrom Rack, Vince Camuto Pleated Culotte, $119 $59

This color. So saturated and rich! And the price? Yes.

I love a comfy crepe in a crop length for work because it's something different but versatile. Just like we get weary deep into sweater weather, you're going to feel the same fatigue for sundresses, so try these crops on for size.

Plaiding Ahead

It's almost November, which means it's almost full on winter, which means it's time to think plaid. Yep, I'm not holding back, I'm thinking ahead and getting my picks in now for plaid cropped pants. Not your wide leg or bootcut black and white plaid, and not your standard windowpane. I'm talking colorful, fitted, plaid.

LandsEnd, Fit 2 Twill Tartan Slim Leg Pant, $89

I'm going to need these pants. Styled perfectly with a casual chambray as seen above, or add a navy silk blouse for your company holiday party.

Macy's, Tommy Hilfiger Plaid Cropped Pant, $79

I don't love the shoe pairing but this could very easily be swapped out with suede stilettos (PS going to need these shoes).

Anthropologie, Plaid Ponte Leggings, $89

Ok, these are technically leggings, but they have back pockets so they count. Plus leggings at holiday eating time? Don't hate that.

Gap, Tailored Crop Plaid Wool Pant, $59

Wool with a touch of spandex? Yep and yep.

Are you brave enough for a plaid pant this winter? I can promise you the compliments will be abundant.
