If ever there’s a season which is difficult to dress for, it’s winter. With crisp cold days that can turn into a blizzard in the blink of an eye, we often lean towards our favourite wardrobe staple – jeans – to keep us on-trend and weather-appropriate.
However, if you’re a jeans-phobe, the prospect of rocking denim all season long may feel a little daunting. Want to switch it up in the cooler months, but keep the 501s firmly at the back of the wardrobe? Here are some alternatives that have us questioning our denim love affair for good…
Leather Trousers
Leather trousers are the perfect blend of glamorous and edgy: instantly dressing up sloppy, oversized sweaters and basic tees, whether you opt for faux-and-fabulous or 100% leather, these are a must-have in every closet.

Culottes
Hear at MyBag, we’re loving anything blogger-related, and culottes are an #fblogger wardrobe must. This cropped, wide-leg look is universally flattering, and oh-so-comfy – we’re braving the elements and wearing ours with backless loafers.

Palazzo Pants
Ever fancied wearing pyjamas to the office? Enter palazzo pants: super wide and floaty trousers that add instant glamour to a plain white tee or black polo-neck. Pick the most extravagant pair but keep your top half muted for everyday luxe.

Paperbag Waist Trousers
If you like your trousers high-waisted, the paperbag finish is for you: a gathered, cinched-in effect will narrow your waist and make your legs seem impossibly long.

A Jumpsuit
Giving up on trousers all together? Try a jumpsuit: they’re versatile and something a little different to mix up your weekday uniform. Wear a pinafore style over a starched white shirt, or pair with a blazer and heels for a professional twist.
