Help me decide on linen trousers!

[starfish4]

I presently have two pairs of linen trousers, which look a bit big on me this year (have I lost weight, don't think so!), but are still usable - they are navy and neutral.

Next have some linen blend parallel trousers (straight leg like above, but a bit narrower) in navy, black and orange. They also have some linen blend chinos in navy, black and lilac. Love to buy all of them, but obviously can't.

I have other tops, but have four navy and white ones all of which I feel good in, so will often wear one of these. Black wouldn't go with them, but would look smart for summer evening wear, or I could have the orange or lilac ones for a splash of colour. However, I've always worn my present navy linen trousers a lot.

Help me decide please!

Go for the orange. Live a little! It will look stylish with your navy and white tops.

You must be fantastic at ironing and/or sitting down tidily. I only have to wear linen for ten minutes to look like a crumpled, limp dishrag.

I agree to go bright, they do a lovely mint colour too in the parallel leg which are a nice but not in your face colour :-)

I think navy or orange would go well with your tops. If you've got the money for two pairs, you could always buy one of each in the different styles.
