Stepping out (AD with Baukjen)

Style

10 Jun

Up until recently I was a skinny jean only kinda gal who never strayed far from the tight ankle feeling .. or calf if they were cropped, but then one evening I chose a pair of relaxed cargo trousers in a gorgeously rich toffee colour from the fabulous guys at Baukjen .. and my whole world changed .. well ok it wasn’t as dramatic as that really .. but it does sound good!

I was, I will admit slightly worried about how I would feel in trousers that didn’t feel like a second skin and that weren’t a shade of blue denim, but I shouldn’t  have worried .. from the moment I tried them on I LOVED them, I of course pranced / strolled / sauntered around the house making sure every member of family was aware of my new find and taking every opportunity to look in every mirror .. tell me I’m not the only one here that does this sort of thing!?

They are so versatile from super casual to being nicely dressy, & I thought what better opportunity to show you how I’ve enjoyed styling them .. and maybe give other skinny jean lovers a new option, so I have put together three ways of styling them.

 

SUPER CASUAL ..

Who doesn’t have a Breton top in their wardrobe?  The relaxed fit of the cargo trousers matches the casual style of the Breton .. wear with trainers & to add an extra bit of colour why not team a bright bag to the look.

 

STEPPING UP A NOTCH ..

Adding a simple jacket, white shirt and summer sandals changes the whole feel of the cargo trousers, I love that it steps up the whole look but still feels casual.

 

GETTING DRESSY ….

Last but not least (& possibly my favourite of the three) is the “getting dressy” look for these trousers, its so simple and stylish, paired with a strappy top, smart jacket & heeled sandals you’re ready for an evening out and looking great.

I hope you’ve liked the way I have styled these cargo trousers, which are a wonderful new addition to my wardrobe, and here’s to trying new styles and stepping out that comfort zone, as you never know what you’re missing out on.

the art of the mirror selfie (there so many different poses to be achieved) 😃😉 ... & of course how to unfurl after them (some of the poses are probably yoga moves 🤣🧘🏻‍♀️)

Don’t you just love that feeling when you’re i Don’t you just love that feeling when you’re in that dozzy sleeping kinda mode 😴 ... you & your bed are ONE ... you’re so comfy you’ve almost melted into the mattress .. the duvet is giving you just the right amount of weight to keep you Super (with a capital S) snugly & there’s a quiet calmness all around ✨ ... that is until the shrill of the alarm clock goes off .. it’s not what I call a gentle wake up call ... not like when we were children and our mums would softly call our names & gently shake us from our slumber .. I wonder if my mum would start doing that again 🤔😉 #mumsarethebest

I made these oat & raisin biscuits on Sunday morni I made these oat & raisin biscuits on Sunday morning 😋😋 ... they were all gone by Sunday evening 😳 ... I think that’s what you call a success 🏆 & very hungry teens (honestly I do feed them 😂) ... although they’re never as keen when it comes to a plate full of veg 🙄😂

AD • there are somedays when you most definitely AD • there are somedays when you most definitely require a “mug of motivation” ... now I can neither confirm nor deny the contents of this mug ... coffeee / red / fizz ... maybe even a sneaky G&T ... or all four together 😳🥴🤢 ... they all get my vote ☕️🍷🥂🍹🍸🧉
