A guide to styling white trousers
Love them or hate them, white trousers are officially a summer 2018 essential. They can easily trip you up, but we’re pretty sure even the most opposed to the bright white look can pull them off – it’s all about how you style it. It doesn’t matter if they’re palazzo pants, culottes or jeans: to own this look like a true fashion pro the only thing that matters is to create the right combinations. So if you’re hoping to work some white into your workwear looks, outfits for evening drinks with friends or maybe for a casual Saturday brunch, we’ve got you covered. Scroll on to nail the trend.
Day
If you want to wear white trousers to the office, try these refined combinations. Choose a pair in a light fabric and combine with a simple black t-shirt for a striking balance. Complete the outfit with a strong blazer or coat, block heeled sandals and a statement bag. If you want to be sure not to make any rookie errors, avoid adding any other white items, focusing instead on contrasts.

White trousers are great allies for casual weekend outfits. Opt for a plain white tee, white sneakers and a floral kimono. Then wear on repeat week after week, for a walk to the park with your pup or for an intensive shopping session with friends. Add an extra cool edge to the look by making sure they’re ripped as much as possible!
