10th Commandment: February 7

Premium Wide Leg Trousers (Topshop, $120)

When I sat down to write this post, I knew that I wanted to do a colored trouser.  Not a skinny pant or a jean, a trouser.  And I also knew that the one color that I did not want to do was red.  

Imagine my surprise when the only pant that I could find, with a Polyvore-ready picture and an under-$150 price tag was red.  Come back at 1:00PM to see me turn this unfortunate circumstance into two awesome outfits.

Look for Less

    I bought these pants in blue back in December and get so many compliments every time I wear them: https://www.express.com/ultimate-double-weave-columnist-pant-31311-704/control/page/2/show/3/index.pro#jsLink
    Looking forward to seeing what you pair with the red ones and hoping I can translate that to blue!
