Whether you are working from home or returning to the office, now is the time to update your winter wardrobe with some new timeless pieces from St. Collins Lane that are as equally comfy as they are stylish. Because really, who said you need to choose comfort over style when you can have both.

Statement Trousers

If you have been living in track pants or leggings, the transition back to your regular work attire may seem a little daunting. Why not switch from figure hugging pants to a looser, more comfortable fit such as a culotte, carrot trouser or straight leg fit.

Shop the carrot trouser trend at Maje; made from a virgin wool blend, these floaty trousers are designed to keep you warm in the cooler months, and feature a statement waist tie to dress up the  overall look.

The Joelle jogger-style trouser from Reiss is an easy introduction to your wardrobe. Cut from jersey fabric with a tapered fit, these trousers feature an elastic waistband for the ultimate in comfort. Easy to dress up with a pair of heels for the office or evening wear, or why not pair them with some white trainers for an off-duty look.
