The Trends: Wide-Legged Pants, Tweed, Patent Leather, Purple

A fresh take on khakis is the perfect laid-back uniform—though these wide-legged pants (Express, $88) could also handle weekdays. Take advantage of fashion's enthusiasm for tweed with a cropped blazer (Tevrow + Chase, $465) and patent leather and tweed flats (Chanel, $630). A purple scoop-neck tee (Liz Claiborne, $35) and scarf (Colombo, $390) give this getup a fine, winey glow; a patent leather bag (MZ Wallace, $425) supplies extra shine.
