A spring trend I am pumped about are wide leg trousers. I can't tell you how many of these pants I kept hanging in my closet, hoping that they would make a comeback. Coming from the corporate world, I wore this style pant day in and day out. I have them in almost every basic color; red being no exception, as seen below.

Don't get me wrong, I am still a fan of tapered pants, leggings and skinny denim, but there is something about wide leg trousers that is so classic and versatile.
To prove my point, I created two style options, one for the office and the other for an evening dinner date or girls night out. Worn either way is a classy, put together and sophisticated combination.
I do suggest adding a pair of heels when wearing trousers. Doing so will accentuate your legs regardless of your height and lengthen the torso. My favorite places to shop for quality pants that have lasted me for years are The Limited, Express, J.Crew Factory and Banana Republic. Sometimes spending a little extra money on a piece that will last for years to come is worth it. I have owned some of my trouser pants for five years or more. I believe this is what some people call an investment piece. I call it smart shopping.
