We’re in Our Relaxed-Pant Era — Here’s How to Style 2023’s Most Sought-After Styles
Quick fact: we're all in on the baggy pants trend. While we love our slouchy jeans, the more options, the better to fit our many moods. For more polished vibes, a loosely-tailored trouser is where it's at with chunky loafers or fresh sneakers (give us pooled hems all day). Swishy wide legs are the types of bottoms that can transition from work to weekend with the right styling — oversize shirts, collared sweaters, and matching tank top and cardigan sets being some of our faves. Likewise, for roomier straight legs, be they full length or cropped. Right now, we're loving them with a fun jacket to end winter on a high note, and when temperatures rise, we'll be relying on easy outfit formulas centering around tank tops and tees.
You could say we're deep in our relaxed-pant era, but more specifically, mood-boosting styles that scream spring, a.k.a. bold poppy hues and pretty pastels. Join in on enjoyment with the following six silhouettes.
