If you don’t want to play it safe with basic colours, then bright coloured pants are the way to go. There’s not much that can go wrong with a pair of wide legged pants in a statement colour. Accessorize it well and team it up with a plain blouse for a fail-safe outfit.

3. Choose a style that suits *you*!
When you think of wide legged pants, you automatically imagine it to look like those 70s bell bottoms. Wide leg pants don’t just mean flared pants, they suit equally well as a straight cut or even a boot cut one. Try a couple of pants and see what suits your body before you invest in them.

4. Balance the proportions
This one’s a no brainer. It’s best to avoid pairing your wide legged pants with a baggy top. Balancing the proportions is the first step to a well put together look. Wear a well fitted top with your pants and add a layer (a jacket or a blazer maybe?) to extend the silhouette pattern!

5. Take the high waist route
When you think wide legged pants, think high waist. High waist styles flatter every body type and most importantly, add height to your look. If you have a slim waist and want to highlight it, there’s no better way to do it! Team it up with a tucked in top, and you’re ready to steal the show!

6. Wear one colour from head to toe
There’s no harm in going monochrome. You can team up your pants with a blazer in the same colour and transform a basic pair of pants into a classy pantsuit. If that seems like a little too risky for you to do, try experimenting with two different shades of the same colour. After all colour blocking is never going out of style, right?

7. Opt for a cropped style for a formal look
Really long wide legged pants often have a very casual vibe. If you’re planning to wear a pair of wide legged pants for a more formal occasion, don’t shy away from trying a pair of cropped pants. But remember that good tailoring is key to get this right! A pair of well tailored cropped pants along with stilettos is the perfect recipe for a chic outfit.
