I Get DMs on Instagram Whenever I Wear These £35 Trousers
At the age of 28, I think I've kind of locked down my own personal style. Don't get me wrong, I love to experiment every now and then, but on a day-to-day basis, you will find me in either a long floaty dress with trainers or some kind of tailored trouser with a polo neck and, yep, you've guessed it, trainers. Given the temperamental British weather, I normally opt for the latter outfit to save my ankles from the cold, and there's one place I always go for my trousers: H&M.
My obsession with its trouser choices started about a year ago when I bought my still-going-strong favourite pair of checkered kick-flares. They fit perfectly, sit just on my ankles and have a slight kick at the bottom that looks perfect when partnered with boots, trainers and heels if I'm feeling brave. Fast-forward a year and a half, and I still wear them on a weekly basis, but I've also added more H&M trousers to my collection, and whenever I wear the above black-and-white pair and share them on Instagram, I get a stream of DMs from people asking me where they're from.
Unfortunately, mine are now sold out, but they do have a very similar pair here. But these aren't the only trousers gaining traction on Instagram. Keep scrolling to see four other standout H&M trousers.
Yellow Wide-Leg Jeans
I've been eyeing up these yellow wide-leg jeans for a while now, and I think I'm going to have to add to basket. They come in brown too.
Wide-Leg White Trousers
I wouldn't normally wear white trousers but these crisp suit ones caught my eye and now I can't stop thinking about them. I love how Tabine has paired them with an oversized denim jacket and a baker boy cap to tone them down a bit.
Linen Trousers
Linen? Check! Matching blazer? Check! Worn by Alexa? Check. These beige trousers would look incredible worn with similar tones.

Zebra Trousers
These zebra-print trousers have been all over my feed, for good reason—just look at them. I'd team them with a white T-shirt and converse.
