Grey Trousers with a Bold Top- #Chicandstylish #LINKUP

Hello and welcome to Mummabstylish.
How's you week going?
I'm still on the slopes and I hope you might have seen what I've been up to on my IG account.

I'm planning a dedicated blog post all about my skiing adventure, so do watch out for it.  

Today I'm sharing an outfit shopped from my wardrobe, there's nothing new here, but I hope you like it.
It's based around this striking jumper the children bought one Christmas.  I think it's pairs very nicely with my grey trousers, what do you think?



So the trousers are good old M & S.  They have a fab selection of wide leg trousers and I've got quite a few pairs hanging up.  These were from the outlet and I've worn them with loads of different colours including off-white & grey, with forest green, complimenting my paisley shirt & with a bright orange biker jacket!  Just looking back at these posts, I've come to the conclusion these trousers are VERY versatile.  Are they a style you like to wear?


It's an old jumper, but makes quite a statement doesn't it.  The bold abstract pattern is very eye-catching and as the girls picked it for me makes me think they know me really well.  They do, because I would have picked this too.  It's from Roman Originals and I always see loads in there when I visit the Outlet - funnily enough I've just realised both came from the outlet!


"It's an old jumper, but makes quite a statement doesn't it."


Finishing additions by way of my grey boots (these are similar) that have a nice heel height, a black bag that has fancy details over it and black leather gloves - again all been on the blog before my friends. 😊

  2. What a striking statement jumper! The wide legged trousers suit you but unfortunately do nothing for me. Such a shame because I love some of the colours! x

  5. It's a good jumper and give you a wide choice for trouser shades. I've had some really great items from Roman, but where is the outlet please Jacqui?

  6. That is a fabulous sweater! I’m not usually a fan of a gray, but the yellow and black abstract pattern on the gray make for a great color combination. You’ve styled it beautifully.
