Tis the festive season! And for some reason, we’re all reaching for statement pants this year. In addition to the taffeta Donnis I’ve yapped about far too much, I picked up the Reformation Olinas (seen above, styled with an Alex Mill cashmere sweater, a La Double J fringed scarf — look for a little less here, a Bauble Bar necklace, and past-season Simon Miller mules) and these taffeta black watch tartan stunners.
I find the Olinas run small/narrow, FYI. I’d hesitate to size up if you’re TTS, but if you’re between sizes, take your larger size. The Donnis run a little big but the look is meant to be a tad oversized.
The other pair that should be on your radar as you contemplate: these fabulous fringed pants in the spiced berry color, currently 25% off. Get in the spiced berry! Beyond fab. These and more incredible statement pants below —
PATTERNED PANTS // PLAID // VELVET // FRINGE // BROWN
01. Butterscotch taffeta pants — such a unique color, and under $200. Great way to get the Donni look for less.
02. Black watch tartan trousers. A classic. I have a pair of these from J. Crew from about a decade ago that I wear every year. Look great with a feather-trim top, a white button-down, a cashmere turtleneck, a silk cami, etc, etc! A similar style in a different plaid pattern here (and currently 15% off). I also just ordered a pair of black watch taffeta (!) party pants for this season and can’t wait for them to arrive. Will share!
03. I can’t get enough of these beaded fringe pants. 25% off!
04. Adore the subtle jacquard print on these Lunas. Under $170 and a great answer to the viral Donni pant as well.
04. Inspired by Jackie O’s tailored cigarette pants, but in party-ready silk dupioni.
05. I snagged these in the plum color, seen above! Cannot wait to wear with other rich gem-toned hues.
06. More fringe drama! Love these with a velvet mule.
07. Wide-leg velvet in the most luxe chocolate color.
08. More fab velvet — this pair is $50!
08. La Double J knows how to make a stellar statement. Wowza. I’ve seen several moms from my daughter’s school wear pieces by this brand lately — gorgeous.
09. Oxblood Colbys (use code MAGPIE10)! Get the look for less with these. Or go BOLD with the leopard version!
10. I love the silhouette on these, which I’ve heard are incredibly flattering. (Use code JENS15)
11. Effortless silk. Come in such fab colors!
12. These leg-elongating pants are so chic. Better for tall Magpies, FYI! She cuts them deliberately long so you can tailor to your measurements but I find the drop a little too low for us shorties.
13. Chic tailored poinsettia-red pants.
14. Staple black velvet pants.
