Fantasy Fashion: Budget Conscious Trouser Alternatives

Add to this my needed cost of longitude enhancing, leg-ending footwear.  An unarguable chaperon to this summer staple.


Medium Spring Tide Crops $88.00
8% of the original price and they've thrown in an extra button at the waistband.



Low Covington Cropped Pants $29.99
Cropped length - check; Cuffed hem - check; High waist - check; 3% of the original price - double check.




Start a chic budget hunt, order a virtual shopping session to compile a portfolio of affordable customized ensembles.

  1. This series is a little dangerous for me. I find myself dwelling excessively on the CRAZY expensive version. :)

  2. ,,,me too (smile) i must say the less expensive pair of trousers out of the 3 featured looks classic, polished and i would purchase them because unless someone cared to see the designers label stitched inside my pant (while I'm wearing them no-less) they would never know the difference,,,as a wardrobe stylist i always tell my friends, family and clients one can have an entire closet full of designer/couture expensive clothes in their closet but if that person is lacking style and the ability to pull the wardrobe together so that they look polished it doesn't matter the investment they have made in their wardrobe it won't show,,,

  5. Robyn,

    Good question. Cropped pants actually visually shorten the legs. If you're wearing a cropped version, particularly a wide legged version, make sure you couple them with wedges or proportionally sturdy cone heels to compensate for the height loss.
