School Post #2 Key Item for Spring 2012

A great key item that I am looking forward to in Spring of 2012 is the wide-legged trouser. With a reference to the 70's era, the wide-legged pant was bound to make a comeback once pants have gone as skinny as they could go with the peak of skinny jeans and jeggings. This is a trend that has been seen popping up on the runway for several seasons and in a handful of retail stores. I will definitely find myself taking the opportunity to invest in a pair, since it will be a trend that will be repeating itself for the next couple of years.

Want to be ahead of the game? Madewell stores are launching a classic 'Widelegger Jean' (pictured right) on February 17th. Click here or visit the flagship store on the corner of Broadway and Broome to score yourself a pair for $125. All you need is a flowey blouse and with a great pair of clogs or platforms to add length in the leg. This look has already proven to be a hit with the celebrities for this coming spring. Kourtney Kardashian was even spotted rocking a pair of 7 for All Mankind Wide-legged trousers, while shopping with Kim.
