Are suspenders this fall's trend?


I'm not sure what to think about the suspenders trouser pants/overalls trend. 70s inspired wide-leg pants, in neutral shades look fine but you should be careful what you wear them with. Stick to a feminine classy look: a delicate bow neck shirt or a cashmere turtleneck and definetely high heels shoes and a structured tote bag. As for those denim shorts with suspenders they look like early 90s kids or teenagers outfit. If you are teenager I guess they would look cool teamed up with striped tees and chunky boots for a grunge look. As for the quirky looking skinny sky pants - i don't see the point.

These corduroy pants I found on eBay seem to pass the test: neutral colour, (though I favor grey shades), detachable suspenders and a retro 70s cut. For Ann Taylor loft Tan Cord Pants, size 10, eBay seller houesofcoles, bidding started at $19.99.
