I’m guilty of buying clothing not because it’s pretty or flattering, but because it makes me laugh. I love slipping into something that really *should* be a piece of a costume with a sly smile and timing how long it takes my husband to make fun of me for it (he secretly loves it).

They were final sale and I bought them online, so I did a ton of research on fit before taking the plunge. Based on my research, I decided to size up. And while I think it was the right decision, they are a bit baggy, so my plan is to embrace the “relaxed fit” when I style them. Here are some of my favorite looks with cherry red bottoms:

an icy blue or equally understated color. via
Have you jumped on the bright pants trend (that, admittedly, has been around for a while now)?
