I know many women find a pant in color a little threatening,……..Many are not quite sure how to wear them…………………I would always suggest a wonderful DARK TOP……BLACK is always good. I love the look of a black top with a wonderful shape, and neckline worn over a pair of colored trousers……………….it is VERY CHIC…….. Of course there is always the matching tunic, but your clothes have to work for you so there should always be other options for wearing the things you are investing in……Also, a pair of trousers in a color, even though you may not wear them every day like a pair of black pants, will SPICE up your wardrobe…..and I guarantee you will be complimented on them quicker than a pair of black, brown or navy pants! In the photos of ALL the TUNICS you have seen how the ….SLATE pants…. works as a neutral color……It works in you wardrobe as a grey pant would and it has a SOFTER EFFECT than BLACK which with these UNUSUAL and EXOTIC colors is sometimes a better choice………………………………………………………..enjoy…………………..much Love………………………Louis
