What is it with floral/coloured pants this year that has everyone in a frenzy? Should we all be rushing out to buy a pair (if we haven’t already) and is this a trend that we should be wearing! For me personally they should only be worn by people size 8 or smaller. Why?  They are a slightly more up-market version of the jeggings (with a little more tailoring) but are still really just stretch fabric with a pocket or two.  If you are really lucky not only are there pants but you can also get a dress and matching jacket (in the same fabric).  What an ensemble – but why would you?

There is a time and a place where (with the right length top) our fascination with these floral pants looks ok… BUT and there is a big butt – sometimes we should not follow trend but observe the reason why we haven’t worn such clothing since we were in our teens!! or if you are of the younger persuasion, is it really a good idea to wear them (just because everyone else does)?

In the interests of keeping my fellow readers happy, I have done some in-depth research if you want to follow this trend, and my recommendations would be to go to either Cotton On, or Glassons as for around $39.00 they both offer a good selection of floral delights and the quality seems reasonable.  All I ask is that you don’t buy the matching jacket!!
