@clarainfante If you’re building your wardrobe, here are 5 pairs of trousers I highly recommend. The price tag on some of these is pretty steep but girl math says that if you wear them once a week for 2 years, it’s the equivalent of buying yourself a cup of coffee once a week. A couple of these pairs were gifted to me, one I saved up for and sold other pieces from my wardrobe to be able to afford and two others I got second hand on marketplace apps. If I lost any of these trousers, I would buy them again. Comment below for outfit tags or if you want a direct link to the pants ❤️
