Who better to express what to wear, The Other Pair, than the Brazilian girl of the moment, Gisele Bundchen.
Could she be any more gorgeous?
The military-style-khaki-slightly-loose-drawstring pants. I can’t think of one easy word to describe these trousers but I can say they are a great look and easy to wear.
I like my khaki with black, grey and white.
I wear a simple tee with my “other pair” and sneakers or flats if I want to gear the look up a notch. I also love them worn with a classic white shirt, either fitted or boyfriend style depending on your preference. A sweatshirt style sweater, slightly dipping in the back, also makes for a fabulous casual outfit.
The biggest plus, these pants are superbly comfortable.
My only rule is wear one piece of khaki at a time; Gisele is an exception. Blending khakis is tricky and the idea is not to look like an extra from the set of M.A.S.H, although “Hot Lips” Houlihan did look pretty cute.
If you haven’t worn these before I have a feeling once you do you won’t look back; on the weekends, for travelling or even to work dressed up. The “other pair” makes a brilliant change.
Win/ Win, xv.
