Trousers are a year-round staple, this we know, but the time they prove themselves to be most useful, in my humble opinion, is in spring. During the winter, black tights, skirts and knee boots serve as my go-to, while summer is all about lightweight dresses in linen and cotton. For spring, with its inconsistent temperatures and forecast that can change in a second (as I type this its sunny and blue skies but, give it an hour, and we could find ourselves in a downpour), its trousers I find myself reaching for the most. Of course jeans also fall into this category but, recently, I've found myself less reliant on them. Instead, I've been exploring different trouser looks and, I have to say, I've found myself feeling chicer in the process.
Still, I could always use some fresh inspiration when it comes to styling my trousers; while a plain white tee will always serves me well, I don't want to become wholly dependant on them. So. whether you too have an appreciation for trousers of every sort—tailored, cargo, linen, the works!—or are keen to start wearing them more, below, I've scouted seven chic and timeless spring trouser outfits to model your own looks on this season. Featuring everything from grey wide-legs to breezy fabrics in pretty colours, there's a trouser outfit for every spring outing you can think of. Scroll on to see them.
