Oh my gosh, y’all. I wore pants. To work.
Are you surprised? Yea, me too.
Blazer: Madewell (on the cheap), Pants: J.Crew Cafe Capri, Top: Merona, Necklace: J. Crew (on the cheap!), Shoes: J.Crew Valentina Pump, Headband: Old Navy (similar)
Maybe it was the bright berry color and slim fit, but these Cafe Capris made me feel ladylike and feminine. Plus adding a touch of lace made me almost forget about my pencil skirt obsession.
Now that I broke my skirt streak, I’m ready to do it again, especially since I picked up some more fun pants from the J.Crew warehouse over the weekend. This may be premature, but consider me a convert.
When it comes to work wear, do you stick to skirts and dresses or are you all about the trousers?
Those pants are a gorgeous color – love the brights in this look! So polished and chic 🙂

I love the color of those pants! My dress code is more casual, so I usually wear darker jeans and a sweater or something.
LOVE the color of your pants! And you look super cute with that head band!

I’m all about pants. I like to sit Indian-style, so I always feel more comfortable in pants.
love the pants! i feel like you cant go wrong with colored skinny pants at work, as long as they are work appropriate and you pair it with a professional top

In the summer I’m all about skirts for work, but as soon as the temps start to drop I wimp out and switch to pants. Waiting for public transport in the cold is no fun with bare legs!

Wow, I love those pants! I should really try a bold color like that this season:-) For work I usually stick with trousers during the winter (I do a lot of walking and it gets COLD in NYC!), but love it when the weather warms up in May and I can comfortably shift back to cute dresses and skirts.
I like the lace top underneath. It really adds to the feminine feel of the pant color too!

Gasp! Pants! I love that color coupled with cobalt blue. And the nude shoes are just perfect! Great outfit.
Those pants are ADORABLE! Totally love them. I wear a lot of skirts and dresses but I have some pants from Gap that I’ll throw on when I’m not feeling a dress 🙂
I love the color of those pants, so pretty!! And it looks great with the navy!

Pants or not, you look gorgeous Lauren! If you’re going to wear pants, then you picked the right color! And of course, I’m completely smitten with your necklace – love the color!

So pretty! (and I’m jealous that you can wear that without the winter boots and jacket this time of year!)
I used to be half and half for pants/dresses when I worked. Now that I’m at uni full-time, I just wear jeans and layered tops.
ahh i LOVE these pants, lauren!! so pretty!
You look stunning in this work outfit! I love your mixture of bright colors – I usually have so much trouble wearing bright colors together.

J. Crew always nails it with their colored pants. I have so many pairs (but not this gorgeous color…sigh!). They’re great when I want to feel pulled together but still casual for work!
