Old Faithful

Sometimes its about staples. Not the bold print, the cutting hemline, its about the perfect base that fits beautifully, and never lets you down. Today that is the black ankle pant. Not a legging, not a jean, a fitted, structured, black ankle pant.

Bloomingdale's, Vince Camuto Straight Ankle Pants, $74

It's not shocking that Vince Camuto makes a stunning pair of black pants. This pair is simple perfection.

Nordstrom, T Tahari Marlena Ankle Pant, $78

Look at these great long lines. Clean and simple.

Old Navy, Pixie Mid-Rise Ankle Pant, $29

You don't have to spend a bundle to get a great pair of pants. I love Old Navy pixie pants.

Macy's, Michael Kors Skinny Ponte Knit Pant, $57

A little bit of ponte adds the perfect amount of stretch with structure.

While I love talking about dots, stripes, florals, and color blocking, sometimes you just need a great pair of black pants. These four won't do you wrong.

Colorful Culottes

Let's talk culottes. They're back and I think we've figured out how to style them. We being us normal lady bosses who are just trying to look amazing on a daily basis. Culottes are tough but I think with the soft pant trend we embraced last summer, culottes are a little easier to wear. Today we're looking at some great printed options.

Nordstrom, Olivia Palermo + Chelsea28 Floral Print Silk Culottes, $98

I need these pants. Is gifting for St. Patrick's Day a thing? Can we make it a thing? Because this is what I want.

Shoptiques, Endless Rose Melrose Culotte, $69

Is it a skirt? Nope, just the most comfortable high waisted culottes ever. Finish the look with this matching top.

Nordstrom, ASTR Lola High Rise Floral Culotte, $84

 I usually try not to post two of the same retailer in one post, but when you've got it, you've got it. This print reminds me of an adult coloring book in the best spring way possible.

JCPenny, Worthington Wide Cropped Pant, $40 $9

Want to try the trend without the investment? I've got you covered. A neon floral oversized print for under ten bucks.

So how about it? Ready to try the trend? Sure you can grab a navy or black pair and test the waters, but why not dive in? The waters fine. Go with a print. You're going to look amazing.

Makes Wide Turns

You know what simple trend I love for workwear? Wide leg trousers. I think they are crazy chic and make such a statement, which is tough to do with pants. When I did a quick search for them, everything I found was linen or resort wear. I'm sorry, but it's 7 degrees here. So I kept digging, and found these great winter options.

I'm telling you, you can wear this. It's corporate, feminine, and creates a teeny waist.
