A smart pair of tailored trousers can go a long way in your wardrobe, and luckily, John Lewis have a pair we'll be adding to our basket ASAP.

The brand's Linen Trousers have a flattering wide-leg fit are the perfect spring wardrobe addition. While we love wearing jeans and leggings, sometimes the occasion calls for a little more tailoring, and this pair ticks every box to fill that gap.

The trousers also come with a matching linen blazer if you want to look suited and booted, but you can of course just buy the trousers on their own, plus there's a multitude of ways to style them.

Dress them up with the accompanying blazer for a formal look that's perfect for the office, or even a spring wedding, and team them with trainers, a crisp white T-shirt and a leather jacket to keep things casual.

Costing £45, they're a versatile investment piece for your wardrobe and are available in four colours: navy, khaki, orange and natural. We love the bright pop of colour the orange has, but if you prefer a more neutral hue, we'd recommend opting for the navy or natural-coloured pair.

Thanks to the lightweight, breathable linen fabric, they're perfect for the coming warmer months as they're breathable and quick-wicking.

If you're prone to spilling your coffee or lunch, don't worry, simply pop them in the machine and wash at 40 degrees.
