Styling New Trousers - Chicandstylish Linkup

Hello my friends. 
How’s it going?

I really do seem to have blinked and missed the summer, I’m still hankering after wearing my summer dresses, and fear Autumn will be upon us in no time - making jeans, boots, jumpers and coats top priority! Having said that it’s still hot here, so I’m still in my shorts and Tee shirts! How’s the weather for you?

Feeling quite pleased with myself recently as I’ve been into town and bought a couple of new bits for the new season. Some super trousers from H&M accompanied me home and I’m looking forward to styling them with a slinky top I picked up from them a week earlier. I had to grab a bigger size trouser (anyone else think H&M come up small),  Upon doing so I spotted a matching silky top, so will possibly get that online for my weekend away to Porto the weekend after next. 

Thought you might like a sneak peak of my new trousers, what do ya think?


I’ve always been an enormous fan of wide leg trousers, and I’m so pleased they are still fashionable. They’re not only easy to wear and style but feel great on. Do you like wearing palazzo styles, do let me know in the comments below. 👇 

Having got plenty of versions hanging in my wardrobe over the past years, I’ve got thicker fabrics, sequins, lightweight summery pairs and casual neutrals and if you’d like to see more just pop wide leg trousers in the comments box on the right!


So this patterned pair completely took my eye the other week and I had to bring them home. It’s the bold hem pattern that really takes the biscuit, making them look far more expensive than they cost (just under £20 to spill the beans, I know a bargain eh?)


It’s got a chain link pattern that’s giving me Chanel vibes. It’s black and cream and will have so many pairing possibilities I can’t wait to get my teeth into them. 
Today I popped on this cream top which as I mentioned above is also from H&M for the very reasonable price of £9.99! I’ll be getting this is black next time I’m in there


I’ve topped this exciting outfit with my oversized black jacket. It’s got slouchy sleeves and although a bit too hot to wear now (is it just me?) will be a godsend come the colder months. 


I just had to pick these stunning court shoes to complete my look. The neutral tones match nicely and look utterly at home don’t you think! Read and see all about them over here

  4. So stylish! I am wearing a nice pair of flowy pants and flowy top today. I should think about how to wear my pants in the fall: with a top layer like this would be nice.
