Fashion comes and goes, well, but houndstooth pants are here to stay!
As a classic and timeless pattern, unquestionably houndstooth will never go out of style.
While many people may stereotyped houndstooth as formal and even “boring” dressing, they are in fact way more versatile than you thought!
These days, houndstooth has definitely transformed into a wide range of casual and creative styles.
From the classy workplace look to the edgy cool-girl outfit, houndstooth never fails to get the look right!
So ladies, if you wonder what to wear with houndstooth pants, here are the 7 ideas!
Enjoy and pin some cute looks my loves! <3
1. WEAR A SHIRT WITH HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS FOR AN URBAN CHIC STYLE
For semi-casual attire, pairing a shirt with houndstooth pants is always the winning option.
Compared to jeans, wearing houndstooth pants just instantly makes you look more put together.
For a more figure-flattering look, opt for cropped pants with fit cutting to show your ankle out.
A pair of pointy loafers just adds a sense of sophistication to the look!
If you want to spice up the outfit, feel free to get creative with the top!
Instead of wearing a plain white shirt, a feminine lace shirt or a silk cowl neck blouse can truly elevate the look.
But of all, my favorite is the peplum top because that can hide my belly and accentuate my waist!
❤️Girl’s fashion hack #1:
Use nail polish clear coat on fraying thread ends to stop further unraveling until you can properly repair the item!
2. WEAR A TURTLENECK WITH HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS FOR A CLASSY WINTER LOOK
When it comes to winter staples, of course, we have to mention the classy turtleneck.
Even if you have a youthful face, wearing a high-neck top can always make you appear to be cool and put together.
Pair with the tasteful houndstooth pants, that is how you look effortlessly chic during wintertime.
For a chunky turtleneck neck top, you can always do the casual french tuck so you don’t feel overwhelmed by the bulkiness.
If you prefer a polished look, you can opt for the thin turtleneck top and tuck do a full tuck, with a belt on, you just look perfectly on point.
For footwear, the combination can be endless as you can always dress up and down the look.
My recent favorites are the oxford shoes and loafers!
❤️Girl’s fashion hack #2:
Prevent button-down shirts from gapping between buttons by using double-sided fashion tape <3
3. PAIR CROPPED SHIRT AND BIKER JEANS WITH HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS
If you wonder if can you add a fashion twist to houndstooth pants, my answer is a big fat YES!
If you want a more youthful and edgy look, pair cropped shirt together with curve-hugging high waist houndstooth pants that are just slightly sexy and gorgeous.
By revealing a stripe of skin, it just transforms the classy pattern into a more playful tone.
To finish off the look, you can always add a cool faux leather beret for a cool, effortless sense of style.
Of course, despite the cropped tops, outerwear plays a major role as well.
Feel free to wear a sherpa denim jacket and a pair of white sneakers to dress down the look.
❤️Girl’s fashion hack #3:Rub clear deodorant on the inside hem of pants/skirts to prevent thigh chafing. ❤️
4. PAIR HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS WITH BOOTS
If you first try out houndstooth pants, I urge you to try out this combination as this is super effective for me!
When I first try out houndstooth pants, I am not that used to wearing patterned pants and that is quite overwhelming.
I feel like my legs look slightly thicker and short with all these busy patterns. If that’s your concern as well, you can always pair knee-high or thigh-high boots to subdue the boldness of the pants.
Plus, the pointed boots can elongate our legs visually so you now understand why this is my foolproof look!
❤️Girl’s fashion hack #4:Use rolled-up magazine pages to maintain boot shape when storing – truly work wonders imo lol
5. WEAR HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS IN A SUBTLE WAY
Another way to get your feet wet in houndstooth pants is to style them in a subtle way.
Instead of wearing the houndstooth pants with the prints on both the front and back, you can opt for the pants with only front houndstooth prints.
Not only does this look more refreshing and stylish, that just makes you look skinner from the back.
After all, patterns are going to exaggerate our legs and that also brings us to the second tip.
Instead of wearing the big houndstooth prints with huge color contrast, opt for the micro houndstooth patterns with a less contrast pairing that is way easier to pull off.
Plus, that won’t add volume to your bottoms like the traditional big black and white houndstooth print.
From afar, people can’t even realize you are wearing the houndstooth pants so you can always give them a little pleasant surprise when they walk close to you!
❤️Girl’s fashion hack #5:
Stretch tight shoes by wearing them with thick socks and blowing them with a hairdryer!
❤️For my baddies who wanna spoil themselves: ❤️
It’s almost Christmas (in two months!!)…for the baddies who wanna spoil themselves but don’t wanna break the bank… check out the bags babies below❤️
From my backend data, almost every 3 days someone from LTK and my email list will buy these two bags lol (Different sizes - some prefer mini some prefer the normal).
It's always so fun see from data to know what you girls prefer!
6. WEAR HOUNDSTOOTH PANTS AS A SET
If you are a lazy girl like me, I am sure you will appreciate the idea of the Co-ord set as this is so convenient and time-saving!
As the set itself is already attention-catching enough, you don’t have to accessorize yourself too much to get the ultra-chic look right!
For me, I don’t think I can pull off the houndstooth suit set as I think this is a bit too dramatic for my style.
But if you are asking me for the sweetheart neckline crop top set, I’ll take it!
I can already imagine wearing this set with a basket bag for the picnic day!

Quick fix – Brighten yellowed white clothing by soaking in a solution of lemon juice and hot water!

7. GET CREATIVE WITH THE COLOURS
Last but not least, if you want to be more creative with your houndstooth pants, it’s time to experiment with more colors!
While people always thought houndstooth pants should be in dark hues, this is not the case anymore.
Colors like mustard and dark pink can be delightful fun colors for a bold and girly look.
Even if you are a teenage girl, you can dress up the “old-fashioned” houndstooth effortlessly with these lovely hues.
So ladies, now you don’t have excuses because any age group can pull off houndstooth pants perfectly!
