Coral Pants: Fresh Fashion Link Up 35

Sydney Fashion Hunter: Fresh Fashion Forum #35 - Coral Pants_ Walk

Hello again and welcome back to another Fresh Fashion Forum link up. Today is officially the first day of winter in Australia and I’m dying on the inside at the thought of the three months of bleak weather ahead. Every year at about this time I entertain fanciful thoughts of either a) hibernating and taking to my bed for the entire season or b) escaping for three months to somewhere tropical and warm. Unfortunately if I want to continue to eat, neither are very good choices. So while the weather and the calendar may decree it is winter, I’m protesting the change of season in a very bright pair of coral pants that are anything but wintery. Take that Mother Nature! I’m not going down without a fight! Read on for all the details …




 

Express Editor Coral Pants

You may have gathered that I am slightly addicted to Express editor pants and I bought these sour cherry ones a few weeks ago but hadn’t worn them until now, mostly because the colour was a little tricky to style. I tried these coral pants (which I think is a better description of the colour that sour cherry – Sorry Express!) with just about everything in my wardrobe before I settled on a muted colour palette of ivory to pair it with. I did add a bit of fun with some multi-coloured pumps but then in a very un-SFH move I kept my accessories very classic with a favourite pair of diamond earrings that I had custom made for my 30th birthday about a million years ago.

  1. Hi Allison, I am also from Sydney and I find your colour combo is perfect for our winter, not too harsh (black) but elegant and edgy at the same time

    What part of Sydney were your photos taken? If it is not a secret of course 🙂

    • Thanks Candace. Given I wear pants almost exclusively I love to have some colour instead of black, black and more black!

      Reply

    • Thanks Catherine. I almost didn’t buy these shoes as they are a bit higher than I normally wear. I’m glad I changed my mind!

      Reply

    • Thanks Rena! I didn’t realise until I got these how tricky coral was to style! Another fashion lesson learned!

  21. Those pants are great and I love that you kept the rest of your outfit neutral. Great shoes too. Sorry it is Winter there, but at least Australia has a mild Winter.

    Reply

    • Thanks so much Ada. Yes our winters are mild but I feel the cold badly so I don’t think I could handle a northern winter! Snow is not my friend!

    • Thanks so much Tania! This outfit took a bit of thinking through. You should have seen the state of my bedroom floor after all the discards lol. I’ll be linking up shortly ?

  25. I love the coral pants styled with the muted neutrals! I would have done bright color blocking, never thinking of a muted palette to let the pants stand on their own. They make such a statement the way you have styled them. Perfect!

    • Thanks so much Shelbee. My original though was with lime green but I didn’t have a coat to match so this just kinda came together lol

      Reply

  26. I think you styled them perfectly! Choosing those shoes which tie in all of your colours was an inspired choice (Plus, I adore the shoes). You look gorgeous.

    Reply

    • Thanks so much! I’m a big believer that shows can make or break an outfit. These were the riskier choice but I went there anyway lol
