French Connection Misty Fern Trousers and L.K. Bennett Rosamund Bag!

Wednesday 16 October 2013

I've spent the past month drooling over the new autumn/winter collection at French Connection. I rather fancy some of their leather pieces (including their delicious handbags) but the #1 item on my want list has been a pair of statement skinnies!

Hat: H&M - Vest: Warehouse - Cardi: c/o Forever 21 - Trousers: c/o French Connection - Bag: L.K. Bennett - Boots: New Look

I'm a self-confessed denimaholic but sometimes I just want to wear something more comfortable than jeans. I like wearing dresses but they don't always keep me the warmest in A/W, which is why statement print trousers are a great alternative! These French Connection Misty Fern Trousers are high-waisted and have a good amount of stretch in them. I'm wearing a size 10 and they fit really well, I love how they feel on and the nifty side and ankle zips.

The print is rather unusual so I decided to let my pants do the talking by pairing them with a simple black vest and cardigan.

You can see the print a bit better in the above photo...Tres chic, right!? I'm also showing off my yummy Rosamund bag from L.K. Bennett. I think it's the most expensive bag I own at the moment, I'm not a huge fan of designer bags because they're so darn heavy but this one is nice and light. The leather is buttery soft.

Are you a fan of statement trousers? Have you bought anything from French Connection recently?
