Winter Trend Alert: Tuxedo Trousers

Winter 2012 sees us borrowing from the boys. Update your plain black trousers to a stylish tuxedo style pair with a velvet or satin trim, as explained by blogger and fashion upcycler Karen Louise Fletcher.

“Not much explaining required,” she begins, which sounds like good news to us. “Simply pin and cut and then stitch the ribbon to the trousers. Easy as that! You could also stitch the ribbon along the outer side seam for a more authentic tuxedo trousers look.”

For for more fashion upcycling ideas, be sure to consult Karen’s blog, Greenie Dresses for Less, or learn how to make Lagerfeld-style leather gloves!
