No Skinny Jeans Here—European It Girls Know These 4 Pants Trends Are Key to Fashionable Outfits
Modern and cool styles.
Like many, my style is heavily inspired by the chic Europeans I follow, from Paris to Stockholm. Their directional looks (cue: the above outfit) are effortless and modern, often made up of elevated basics. For pants specifically, it's not skinny jeans I'm seeing as much right now (although, I know they're rising in popularity again, and if that's your thing, go for it), but rather four other types of pant trends.
These styles are cool and certainly are key to creating some of the most fashionable European looks I have saved on Instagram. Below you'll find visual inspiration showcasing the pants in question (great styling inspiration), along with shopping recommendations in case you want to add one or all of the picks to your wardrobe for spring and summer.
The Pants Trends Chic Europeans Wear
Drawstring Pants
I feel like I can't scroll through Instagram without seeing cool outfits featuring loose, drawstring pants. There's an ease to them that works with everything from a simple tee to a blouse.
Satin Pants
Silk pants are chic. Period. A great alternative to a skirt or a standard pair of trousers, satin pants add elegance to an outfit without sacrificing comfort.
Capri Pants or Pedal Pushers
Yes, it's the season for capri pants or pedal pushers—especially styled with flip-flops! I love this outfit with the trench coat as well.
Relaxed White Jeans
There are a variety of stylish denim trends Europeans wear, but it's the relaxed cuts in white or cream that I'm most into for a fresh vibe.
