I naturally went for a super comfy option, I have been looking for a pair of baggy khakis for a while and these Zara trousers fit the bill perfectly. They are almost harem in style, incredibly comfortable and will look fab in the summer with a camisole top and Majorcan style sandals. For the spring I styled my khaki trousers with a lace detail victoriana top from H&M (sold out online but available instore), my M&S Alexa Chung blazer (size down) and my hardly-ever-off-my-feet Gucci shoes (I am getting my money's worth out of them!) I threw my M&S pink coat over the top and my navy radley bag, I always need structure against a baggy item of clothing it balances out the look..
This is my comfort zone, I love a smart/casual look, juxtaposing baggy and tailored. To pull my outfits together I always make sure two items are the same colour (my blazer and my bag) You can wear any range of colours, throw them together as long as two colours match on your outfit, it can be a small as the piping on an item of clothing with an accessories, I always think that these are the two pieces of string that tie your outfit together..just think two and you will always get it right.
Joanne looked gorgeous in J Crew trousers (similar), Topshop shoes and Zara blazer ..

I know I will be living in these trousers in the summer, they are so lightweight and will look fab with sandals and a tee shirt, just need a little sun now. The blazer has definitely been a suprise, I wasnt sure whether to keep it but have worn it so much, I love the 80s feel of it and the oversize look, it looks great with skinny jeans and tailored trousers. Have you invested in khakis so far this year, how are you wearing yours? As always I would love to hear your thoughts and comments

However, isnt it sad, that only people that are famous ever get covered in the media. Isnt every life a precious gift If it was your family member you would certainly think so, yes he was great and an ICON, BUT, we are all special and dont get remembered like him, its obvious he would be covered because of his talent and controversy, however what about Farah Fawcett. That poor woman had more courage than any of us could possibly imagine.
