I fell in love with red skinnies when they came out on the Isabel Marant runway last fall. While I admired them from afar, I would never wear leather pants. Luckily, over the past year many cotton options have popped up from cord to twill to denim. It has taken me a while to really want to commit to this look, so yeah, I'm about a year behind the European fashions. Ah, well.
My apprehension was based on the fact that I didn't want to invest in something that I may or may not be able to figure out how to work into my mom wardrobe. I found this pair on knockout clearance at
Victoria's Secret (thanks to
love Maegan) (they may be sold out), and ordered them so that I could try it out *almost* risk free. The second hurdle is figuring out how to wear them with more than just black, white or gray. Here are some of my favorite "mom friendly" looks:

This is my favorite look for mom style. It looks comfy, easy, machine washable, and like something I could create out of what I already own. Here it is styled for colder days:
Lastly, let's remember that red pants, bold as they are, can be done oh, so wrong. Shudder.
Some good looking red skinnies I've found:
J Crew (corduroy $79.50)
J Brand (denim, $176)
Urban Outfitters (twill, $29)
