Outfit of the Day // The Comfiest Riding Pants

When I dress for a day at college, comfort is my main objective. Which is why I was so happy to be able to wear my new Topshop riding pants out for the first time.

They are made with this gorgeous thick ribbed material, which makes them nice and warm for these winter months. The vertical lines plus the panelling at the knee area also do a really great job of making your legs look narrower and longer. I've only worn them casually so far (I've only had them a week) but I know they'll look amazing dressed up with the high waistline - they seem like a great alternative to disco pants which I basically live in so I can tell I'll get a lot of use out of them. I'll admit when I first tried them on I had to wiggle a little to get them up, but since that first time they've been a perfect fit!

Today I styled them with a massively oversized cream jumper (my gran actually knitted this for my dad about thirty years ago but I've claimed it as my own), my Hamsa Palm necklace from Kukee, and my favourite studded boots from Romwe. Everything worn is what I like to call my "ultimate comfort clothes".

And so ends my first OOTD post. I'm sure it will be the first of many. What do you like to wear when you dress purely for comfort and warmth? And what would you wear with these riding pants?
