One Trend, 2 Ways Pose Off (part 2): Printed Pants

Posted by Alexandra | Monday August 13, 201273 comments


Last week, Mandy and I played twins and sqaured off, both posing in white lace. However, we each put our own spin on it. While Mandy rocked some white lace shorts, I wore my lace trumpet skirt. This week, we're going to be doing the same thing, only our trend of the moment is... printed pants! 

Now, I love me a good pair of printed pants (a la PJ style, see evidence here). However, Mandy prefers her printed pants to be in shorts form. So, not only will you get to see how we each make a trend work for our own individual bodies, but you'll also see how we interpret a trend to suit our individual styles. 

Mandy 


Mandy is wearing her printed Zara shorts, paired with a semi sheer black tee. She's keeping it cool, comfy and chic for a day on the Toronto streets or a lunch date with friends. 

Alexandra 


I am wearing my printed silk pants from Joe Fresh. Yes, I realise they look exactly like PJs and yes, I love them. They feel amazing on and I adore the print. Because they're quite colourful, I went with a basic, solid black tee on top. 

So chicks, let us know if you would ever wear printed bottoms? What do you make of this trend? Leave us a comment below by the 19th and you could win!

I think you guys both look great and the look works for you, but I wouldn't choose printed bottoms for myself - unless it's to bed!

I like the idea of printed pants but I think I would try a pair in a different material and maybe a more structured style to stay away from the pj bottom effect!

Some printed pants look okay, but I'm really not that into them. I like Alexandra's printed pants though.

I love them both, although I may only wear these items at a cottage or a place where I was strickly "lounging."

Out of the two, I like the shorts because they are a brighter pattern. However, I would not wear either of the patterns shown.

I would definitely wear both Mandy & Alexandra's printed pants, except only inside the house. I wouldn't feel comfortable wearing it outside. Base on the print, I prefer Alexandra's. Great outfit ensemble girls!! xD

If I found a pair I liked as much as you like yours, I would. The shorts are cool but the material (silk?) looks like it could get sticky on a hot day
