Black trouser challenge 5

Yep, it's week five of my self-imposed black trouser challenge and I'm still going strong. I thought it was about time to inject a good ol' dollop of colour this time by way of this floralfest of a blouse. One of my favourite stylings of this fabulous blouse was featured on the blog here. Cost-per-wear for my trousers has dropped down to a comfortable £8 so I'm a very happy bunny. Let's take a look at this week's offering shall we?








So what can I say about this five week love affair? The ruffles still make my heart somersault, the fit is still good after lots of wash'n'wear, and I'm finding black such a dream to partner up with the contents of my wardrobe. This morning I found another clutch of tops which could easily have made an appearance here and not looked out of place in the least. I do wonder if I would have been quite so inspired if I'd chosen a plain, basic cut pair of black trousers for my style challenge, but hey, you know that I wouldn't have fallen for anything less than wonderful to convert me to the joys of black breeks! My sole concern is that you, my dear reader, are tiring of the repeated exposure to these fancy pants. Please whizz on by if this doesn't enchant you as it does me - I'll understand.

Trousers: River Island (still available here), blouse: Next (charity shop find, so may be quite old), shoes: New Look, rings: charity shopped, sunglasses: Quay Australia, heart pendant: boutique find, but no idea of the name, sorry!

This is a non-sponsored post.

My next post will be on Monday when I feature the #5Over50 challenge - hope to see you then!

  1. I love those fancy pants - I am seriously considering buying a pair, except that I bought a pair of boring black trousers yesterday for work (in my industry the frilly ones wouldn't work, sadly). Yours look great with everything!

  2. If these trousers were half of their current price I'd snap them up in a heartbeat! All of your stylings have shown your creativity and the trousers versatility.
    The blouse you're wearing here reminds me of the artist Peter Max. Do you remember him?? He was HOT in the 70's and very commercial. He did paintings and textiles and his graphics were an advertising favorite. Actually he's still painting, although his style has evolved some.
    You aced your black trouser challenge Anna!

    1. Versatility is the word for these trousers indeed Jude!
      I've just googled Peter Max who was an unknown for me, but no longer. Yes, I can see what you mean about this print. Bright, over the top and of course fun!
