Going wide

There was a time when wide-leg jeans were all the rage.  It was then when I jumped on the bandwagon some 5 years back and purchased this pair of jeans from Uniqlo when we were still living in Tokyo.  I love Uniqlo for they have a wide range of casual wear with those irresistible pocket-friendly prices.

I brought along my one and only pair of wide leg jeans to Geneva.  Wasn’t sure what I was going to pair it with but since my wardrobe choices are rather limited since I’m not working here (they mainly comprise jeans, jeans and more jeans).  I thought maybe a different style could come in handy some how.  And I guess it did this time round.

I had a ‘gig’ presenting on Singapore to a couple who was going to relocate to our tiny shores.  I wasn’t sure what to wear, shipped all my pants home the last time so I pulled out my wide-leg jeans.  I probably could get away with wearing jeans since it was of a dark wash.  To pull off a slightly more ‘business-casual’ look, I put on a navy blue blouse with just some simple detailing.  You can’t really see it here but I love the ‘Peter Pan’ collar on this blouse.  Lastly, because the blouse is made of a lightweight cotton material, I layered it with a grey cardi to keep warm.

And the ankle boots go perfectly well with the outfit too.  Guess I’m keeping this pair of wide-leg jeans in my wardrobe for a little longer.  Hopefully this seventies-style denim will make a comeback soon.

Go on raid my wardrobe!
