ALL IN THE DETAILS: Patterned Pants

When I saw this Fashionista roaming the streets of downtown Chicago, her outfit quickly caught my eye. A major trend in her look, which has been very popular this spring and summer, is her navy blue and green patterned pants. When I first saw the trend of these pants emerging, it reminded me of the patterned, pajama pants from the ’70s. These pants come in an array of different patterns and colors. These pants allow Fashionistas everywhere to be stylish and comfy at the same time!

This Fashionista perfectly demonstrates how to wear these bohemian-inspired pants. Many of these patterned pants have elastic at the top and flare at the bottom, as shown in this picture. The elastic at the top of the pants allows for an ideal fit, and the flare cut of the pants gives off a free-spirited vibe.

When wearing patterned pants, it looks best to pair them with a solid top such as a white T-shirt. This Fashionista’s white and gold chain cross-body bag brings out the white in her shirt. She chose to stick with white as the main accent color in her outfit by completing the ensemble with adorable white strap wedges.

How To: Want to make this look even dressier? Try adding a colorful blazer, statement necklace and heels. Or if you are looking to tone your look down a bit, try flats and a solid color button-down shirt. Wear the shirt unbuttoned and tucked in with a tank top underneath, and finish off the look with a clutch bag.
