Plenty of flare: stride out in this season’s wide-leg trousers
Plenty of flare: stride out in this season’s wide-leg trousers

Something is cool about wide-leg pants. A good pair will make you feel good. It’s important to find the right fit for your body type. If you are small, a stack or block heel adds length to your legs and protects your hems from beingtrodden into the ground. Under a wide cut a cowboy boot is useful. You can find a style that will fit shorter heights. Any dry cleaner can take up the required height with a pair tailored. A few inches of pooling fabric over a trainer, worn with a sweater, adds to the laidback look, so altering is not always needed.

The flat ballet pump or loafer shoe is perfect for taller people. Cos has an orangey red pair that will make you smile. It’s a good idea to wear them with a white shirt and black roll neck. Whistles has a pale lime style and Sandro has a sunshine yellow one. Both Anine Bing’s black and Me and Em’s belted white ones are classics you will wear many times. The white vest is one of autumn’s big trends and it’s still warm. Take a styling cue from Louis Vuitton and add a shirt and tie to complete the look. Accessorise with a belt and gold jewellery for evening glamour. Statement earrings can be used to create a cocktail worthy outfit.
