Geo print is hot for AW12 and Next have pieces to fit into any wardrobe, from blouses to dresses, to trousers. I have chosen to add the geo print cigarette style pants to my wardrobe for AW12 but being a girl who usually sticks to pretty plain pieces, styling the print is proving more difficult than I originally anticipated! I’ve been wearing these trousers a lot lately as they work for the office but translate easily to evening wear too. In fact I wore them to Next’s Press Day at the end of October – and spotted another few pairs at the event too!
