Whenever the weather warms up I start thinking about how gorgeous wide leg trousers can be, but only after I don’t have to tuck them inside any boots. I am talked the wide leg that drapes and bells, not something so exaggerated it looks like a skirt. But of course it is one of those items that is actually hard to track down right now because the majority of pants are skinny or slim cropped.
Which are great, they lo0k sleek and chic but sometimes I want a big more drama and elegance. The waist needs to sit higher, closer but not above the natural waist, complimenting the curves not exaggerating them.
Shop the wide leg trousers:
1. High Waisted Wide Leg Trouser 3.1 Lim
2. Hutton trouser in Super 120s
3. ASOS Linen Pants In Wide Leg
6. Marrakesh High Rise Flare Jeans
I am leaning towards the Hutton trouser. I just have to think of them more like the street style stars do and wear them for more than days at the office and more for just a fantastic outfit.
What are your feelings on wide leg trousers?

I have held onto a pair of French Connection wide leg black trousers {really wide} for longer than I care to remember. I think I will pull them out! And also, I really want a pair of the denim wider bottom jeans. In love with a pair from Guess...

Totally time to pull them out and mix in with all the slim skinny pants we always wear. It is nice to mix it up.

For some reason, this type of trousers doesn't look good on me, it must be my thighs. But I do love them on other people, especially the first black ones and the denim version. Mafalda ❤ http://mafaldadotzero.blogspot

I think that you have to really search for a brand that isn't too tight on the thighs, I know I do. Sometimes the pants are more of a flare than a wide leg and fit very tight on the thigh...
