Banana Republic Martin Fit Pant ($79)

I love white cotton pants with simple blouses and sweaters for casual Mondays or semi-casual dinners with friends.  Unfortunately, it’s difficult to find lined white pants these days, but if I wear a smooth, flesh-toned thong (Hanky Panky Bare are my favorite), I don’t have a problem.

Gap also offers a white cotton pant with a tab front, but it has a wider leg for a beachy, relaxed feel.  If you prefer a skinny pant, Michael Kors makes his skinny trousers in white sateen.  Ann Taylor makes a lovely pair of cotton trousers, and also a pair of ankle-length skinny pants (also in petite). Lastly, J.Crew makes their popular stretch cotton pants in white.

If you need a lined pair of white trousers, Lafayette 148 makes a lined trouser in all the basic colors.  If you need something under-$100, Anne Klein makes a lined white pant (also in petite).

Plus-size? The lined Anne Klein trouser comes in plus-size, as do these Jones New York trousers.  Tall?  Banana Republic makes a white trouser in tall lengths.

    I love the Martin pant! Great if you have an hourglass figure, they fit a small waist nicely, and of course love a lined trouser.

    Nice selection! I’ll be in the market for some new pants very soon, and I like the skinny ankle length variety.

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
