Put Your Pants On!

Trousers come in many shapes and sizes these days, so if the runways are any indication, there really is something for everyone (and perhaps some things for no one!).
Tell CC, regarding runway styles: love them or hate them?

What to buy? If you’re trying an adventurous new shape or texture, stick to basic black. If you’re a seasoned pro at the new pants shapes, go crazy!
