Colored pants are a big hit right now and obviously one of my favs! I scored a sweet pair of bright red Rue 21 pants for like $6 at Plato's Closet and I've been slightly obsessed with them ever since. I've tried all kinds of combinations for different outings, ie. work, casual, a night out.
This look has more a of a professional feel and something I'd highly consider wearing to the office.
This Worthington black one button blazer pulls the outfit together by being a solid color with very little embellishments. Blazer jackets have really made a come back for everyday wear and are a staple item for any working woman's closet. I picked this one up at Goodwill for $3.99, you can't beat that!
I'm wearing a black and white striped tank underneath, which balances the red instead of competing like many other colors and patterns will. This top is Forever 21 and I picked it up at Volunteers of America thrift store for about $3.
I'd recommend just a basic black closed toe pump, something very simple for a professional look. I opted for these heels because I actually don't own a plain black pair but buying black pumps has been added to my to do list! I do like these shoes though, they're unique with studs, bows and zippers. They were purchased at Meijer for $8.
One option for toning down colored pants, especially a strong color like red, is pairing them with an earth tone like brown. Even though I'm more of a black kinda girl but I will be doing a how to piece based on the red/brown combo later on this week. Stay tuned for the 2nd and 3rd installment on these fab red pants :)
