Kate's Closet: Monochrome stripe Newlook wide leg trousers

Hello, I love stripes, but normally I'm all about the stripe tops, not trousers, I must admit as much as I admire striped trousers on other people, they have always scared me a little. I always felt better sticking to plain bottoms, preferably jeans, and skinny/slim fitting, so these stripe wide leg trousers are well out of my comfort zone.

I saw these monochrome lovelies in Newlook, and decided to take the plunge and try them on, its taking a bit of getting used to, but now I bloody love them, and on my they are so comfy. I love the wide legs, even though previously I thought due to being a short arse I couldn't get away with it, but I think the length way stripes help to elongate my short legs. I kept it simple and monochromatic with a Primark black Harry Potter Tee, black leather jacket and boots. They also look pretty cool with my classic vans.
