We’re all searching for that elusive outfit combination that ticks off comfortable and polished, aren’t we? I think ideally we’d all like to feel like we were wearing a tracksuit most of the time, while looking like we didn’t even know what one was. And in summer it becomes even harder to achieve both comfort and polish at once since the heat often has other ideas.
This year, though, I’ve been determined to crack the code, experimenting with various outfit formulas and taking mental notes every time I see my fellow editors looking effortlessly chic on summer days. From my research, I’ve come to the conclusion that there seems to be one common denominator across all my favourite warm-weather outfits right now— and that’s drawstring wide-leg trousers. I’m guessing you’re probably already familiar with the joys of a baggy pant by now— we have been raving about this celeb and influencer-loved trend all autumn/winter— but the seasonal update of a tied waist not only makes this smart trouser feel easy, breezy and generally more relaxed for summer, it also makes them even more comfortable. Tick, tick, tick.
