Last week at work I wore a version of this outfit. It was Friday. I was told I could wear something more casual but all I wanted to do was wear these pants.
It is rare to find a high waisted trouser right now. One that isn’t polyester or really a mid-rise. And as much as I am all for a slim crop pant I like variety.
Plus I bought these while I was binge watching Scandal and they just scream Olivia Pope’s style.
I love the tone on tone of the two shades of grey and the floaty blouse with the wide leg of of the trouser. I prefer tucking in my blouse with a mid-rise or higher pant. I just feel like everything stays where it belongs that way. The pouch is controlled so to speak.
JCREW Hutton Trouser Review
I ordered the Hutton Trouser on a whim and a want for a wide leg trouser with great drape. I had success with another JCREW high waist pant so I felt it was an educated guess that they would work. The Hutton Trouser is unlined which I personally don’t mind. I find much of what they line pants with make the fit a bit awkward among causing issues when washing. But because it is unlined wool there is a texture. I find it quite soft for wool. Plus because the wide leg I really don’t notice any scratchiness. However, if you are sensitive to wool you might want to consider something with a lining.
Unlike some JCREW pants that fit very slim these are roomy with lots of drape. Not that I would suggest to size down. But it is a good style for those on the curvier side.
Outfit details: Silk blend blouse Mango, Grey leather jacket Mango Peccary, wide leg wool trouser JCREW Hutton, black suede heels Nine West.

Any one of them would be versatile. There is another style that is collarless which has more colours to choose from too.
