3 Ways I'm Wearing This $37 Pair of Printed Pants at Work For Summer
I'm a total outfit repeater. When I figure out a formula I love, I try to get away with wearing it more than once a week — if I wore it to work, catch me in it on the weekends with friends or for dinner later in the week. My repeat outfits are usually born out of laziness and/or poor time management (I am not a morning person), so if I know a combo works, I'll totally wear it, or a very similar version, again (though always in different company, because I know you're wondering if I shamelessly show up to work in the exact same outfit more than once a week — the answer is "no").
This level of laziness (read: savviness) routinely leads me toward versatile pieces I can style a few different ways. And a piece I plan to lean on a lot this Summer is a pair of printed pants from the new POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's.
In a punchy green shade with a floral print, these POPSUGAR Wide Leg Pants ($37, originally $50) are floaty without being voluminous and lightweight without feeling flimsy. Basically, it's the perfect heat-proof pant that's office approved. Sure, the color is bold and the print a bit playful, but as someone who routinely reaches for classic pieces in muted tones, it's the exact pop I'm looking for when I want to liven things up in the Summer workwear department.
Ahead, shop the playfully printed pants I plan to wear on repeat throughout Summer. Plus, see how I'll be styling the floral-print bottoms three different ways, featuring more stylish pieces from the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's, along with sleek bags, shoes, and jewelry. Then, for more of a printed-pants fix, I've rounded up 10 additional styles ranging from two-toned stripes to fun polka dots and a red floral print you're sure to love.
