In all my years following and writing about fashion, I've come across plenty of unique trends, specifically ones that blend two popular pieces together to create a rather genius style hybrid. Take ballerina sneakers, for instance, a clever blending of comfortable casual trainers with the intricate lace detailing of ballet flats. Now, trousers have joined force with a chic accessory found in every well dressed woman's wardrobe - and it looks good.

Enter: the scarf trouser. A chic, Parisian take on your typical tailored pant, this style hybrid features a scarf that comes attached the the waist, acting as a belt. This unique style immediately caught my eye during an evening online shopping, specifically a sophisticated style from high street favourite Next - the Scarf Belt Wide Leg Trousers.

Distinctively designed, the trousers feature an eye catching yet timeless polka dot motif, upstaged by an even bolder paisley and floral scarf print in hues of brown, beige and warm amber. It upgrades the chic dotty style and makes it feel fresh for spring.

Not only are the trousers especially head turning, they're also incredibly comfortable, crafted from Tencel Lyocell which is great if you're looking for a pair of trousers with added breathability and in turn, easy wearability. Its versatility is unmatched too, as it's comfy enough to wear during the day but then striking enough to wear into the evening. Think of it as the ultimate day to dinner staple when paired with a boxy white tee and a pair of ageless kitten heels.

It also comes in two other styles: another polka dot motif in red and ecru (accompanied by a pink and red scarf belt) as well as a plain navy pair with a navy scarf. Shop the other's below.
