Neutral Colored Pants - 5 Elegant Ways.

Emily Temmuz 23, 2022

Hi All. Today is Day Two of 5 Days, 5 Ways and today's remix is Pants. Though I am much more of a Dresses & Skirts Girl myself, I do wear my share of Pants, especially Trouser-style pants for work. Actually, at my last job, in my Career with Books, I was told a lot by a couple of our employees that I looked so Sharp, Elegant & Professional in Wide-Legged Pants. Also, it seems from yesterday's post, that most of you preferred the Professional Look I chose with the Dressy Brown Pants. I actually had at least 4-5 more looks to show you with those Brown Pants but I didn't want to look repetitive so today I chose Light Colored, Neutral Pants to show you. They are not the same pants, they are actually 3 different pairs but still. I think it fits the challenge, I hope so. All these looks are Dressy, Professional, Elegant too - if I do say so myself. I am wearing wedges with all of them, My Brown Oxford Booties, My Purple T-Strap Mary Janes & My Multi-Colored Stripped Espadrilles. You will also see some of my Silk Blouses - I have quite a collection of Blouses & other Silky Tops. And from posting these outfits, I am also noticing lots of Ruffles. =) I do apologize about the lightning on these photos. It is not the best. I work with a very simple point+shoot camera and all these photos were taken in my office (at the time) where we had strong, neon lights.

1st Look with Light Grayish-Khaki Trousers. For this look I chose a Linen Blazer in a complimentary shade like a Cream or Ivory and I wore one of my favorite blouses which features Ruffles, Polka Dots & the Color Blue - all three things I love. And I am wearing my Brown Oxford Wedges which were so popular from yesterday, too.

2nd Look with Light Grayish-Khaki Trousers. For this look I wore a Very Pretty Gray/Olive Green, Spider-web Print Silk Top which has cascading Ruffles on the sides down the sleeves. I added a simple Black Cardigan on top - a must have piece in every woman's closet. Some Sparkly, Silver Drop Earrings and I was done. But now looking at this, a Long, Bold Necklace in a Bright Color would have made the outfit look better. Even Gold would have worked.

1st Look with Light Gray Trousers. I have always loved Gray paired with Pinks & Purples so I Chose this Fuchsia/Magenta Blouse to pair with my Light Gray Pants. I added a couple of simple bracelets and I think that was enough since the top is Bright & it has this Ruffled Collar Bib.

My Last Look featuring Ivory or Ecru Trousers. These Dressy Pants I paired with another Bright, Silky Blouse in a Beautiful, Bold Emerald Color - Green is so in this season, not?! And I wore one of my many Bow Headbands - I have quite a collection of Headbands. I also added some Dangly Black & White Beaded Earrings. In retrospect I should have added a bracelet or two, as well and maybe tried a Long Necklace instead.
