These tuxedo trousers by Celine at Matches are out of my reach at £550 but look divine (sigh, double sigh)Toast have some for £125 but they have a stripe and are in the wrong colours blue or grey and it has to be black!
I know it is probably the wrong season but does anyone have any suggestions for where to find the perfect pair. Let me know if you do that would be smoking!
I know, I know 'puts hand up' have you tried Jaeger or Stylebop.com - they have some for sale just over #100 not sure what sizes are left though. You're right about it being the wrong season its all utility chic and khakis right now. But as a wardrobe staple you can't go wrong. I've posted another sample sale happening today and tomorrow - I['m sure See by Chloe will have something fab
ReplyDeleteHi there-hope you track down a pair, the Celine ones are just gorgeous, sigh!!
ReplyDeleteLove those trousers but they are $1100 Australian dollars! I wish the dollar was stronger...meanwhile I am going to embrace your no fritter challenge. The svaing Gods demand it.
ReplyDeleteLove these! A classic!

Love these too. I actually bought a pair a few years ago from brand "Not Your Daughter's Jeans." The style is "Audrey" and they were probably about $100 USD. I don't know if that brand is available in the UK, but they do a version of this pant most seasons.
ReplyDeleteGreat pants but sadly I don't have any ideas.
ReplyDeleteI am wearing some "passable" ones from Zara while I continue what seems like an un-ending search for the perfect pair.
ReplyDeleteFor a cheapie high street option you could consider Jil Sander for Uniqlo. This pair of 'skinny straight pants' could pass as cigarettes: http://www.uniqlo.co.uk/catalogue/women/j/411113-black-j-skinny-straight-pants
ReplyDeleteNot quite Celine (or fabulously high-waisted) but could do in a pinch. xx
I read this on the iPhone earlier in the week and was too lazy to sign in and comment. But I reminisced happily for my Country Road wool gaberdine navy ciggarette legs circa 1989 that made me look like I was 5'9"
ReplyDelete(am 5'4")
But of course being 1989 I wore them with flat lace up manshoes. What shoes now?
xx
Hammie - that is so true, they lengthen legs and it woudl still be man shoes now!!
ReplyDeleteJanavi - I did that last summer but they were always too big, not a good fit.
Oh, if only I had a spare £500 sitting around! Such lovely trousers.
