30 Chic Fall Trousers That'll Make You Look Like a Fashion Person

Jeans are great and all, but there's nothing chicer than a great pair of trousers. I say this as someone who used to only wear jeans in the fall and winter. I've worked to diversify my wardrobe in recent years, and incorporating more trousers into my closet is one way I've done so. While there's no replacement for jeans, trousers will give your outfits a different, somewhat dressier vibe.
Now that fall is in full swing, I'm in a trouser-shopping mood, and I'm taking you along with me if you're also on the hunt for the best pairs. I scoured the internet for the best pairs in five essential categories: printed, pleated, skinny, wide leg, and leather. Keep scrolling to shop my carefully selected picks for each.
Printed
Pleated
Skinny
Wide-Leg
Leather
