When answering the question of what to wear with black trousers, stylists recommend starting from what the ensemble is being chosen for. After all, the black color itself is combined with the entire rainbow, pastel palette and bordering shades. Gray and indigo, white and marsal, whatever you choose, will always be elegant, but for business style everything in one tone is welcome.
For work
Black trousers, and sometimes even black jeans, are perfect for work. They are always appropriate, especially if they are classic, straight and without unnecessary details. The simplest and most win-win options are total black and light top-dark bottom. They are recognized as a timeless classic, never go out of style and are acceptable for almost any work look.
Stylist's advice If you have difficulty choosing a top for a work look, then a turtleneck, a plain jumper with a neck, a simple shirt and/or jacket are always a great option for any black trousers or jeans. Moreover, if the model of the pants is not quite standard, a discreet top will help smooth out this moment and give the image formality.
Suits are great for work. They create a single image, give solidity and composure, and are very laconic. And, of course, they make the task of choosing clothes easier.
If the dress code allows, then you should pay attention to less strict models of black pants, for example, culottes, jeans or trousers of an unusual cut.
To diversify your work look, you can choose models with an interesting cut or remarkable details that do not greatly affect the overall tone of the set, but give it some flair.
Classic straight trousers with or without creases suit everyone. But you need to remember that they are selected directly under the shoes and should be approximately to the middle of the heel.
Business lady
Black dress pants will create this look. They are the basis of every woman’s business image. Without a doubt, we add a strict white shirt to them and then you can safely go to school. If you don’t want to look like a high school student, then the top, in our case a shirt, should be less radical. The trousers have already taken on all the severity of the image. Add a little lightness, transparency, decoration. For a classic look, we use only elegant pumps in a neutral color as shoes: plum, burgundy, beige or, again, black. We recommend putting sandals and platform shoes back in the closet. The handbag should also be in harmony. The classic options are: an envelope, a business briefcase and, in principle, any model with short handles. Don't forget to add a couple of bright accents in the form of a belt or watch.
A classic look is always one of the best options
For events and important events
Thanks to their excellent compatibility, black trousers look very stylish and harmonious in a “going out” look. Many celebrities often prefer formal suits and sets, even for the red carpet. The same bright details and shoes, unusual fabric texture, prints and interesting combinations of styles help them avoid looking too formal.
Black is universal and looks great with all colors; moreover, elegant noir transforms them, making them brighter and more saturated. Black absorbs light and creates deep shadows. White, yellow, orange, bright green, pink, purple and scarlet look the most pure and pleasant with it.
And, of course, sequins, rhinestones, shiny smooth fabrics and, in general, any top, even the most elaborate, go perfectly with black trousers. Especially if the trousers have a calm and classic cut. Although, when it comes to a festive look, this is not at all necessary.
Skinny black trousers
Skinny trousers most often have a length that barely reaches the ankle. Other styles are 7/8 or even mid-calf length. Cropped legs look good with a high waist. When selecting other items for the ensemble, you should adhere to the stylistic rule: narrow bottom - loose top.
Skinny trousers are ideal for tall and slender girls with straight legs. Others should choose this model very carefully, because... any imbalances and flaws will be visible through the tight-fitting fabric.
You can pair any shoes with skinny trousers, unlike tapered ones. But short girls with straight legs are recommended to wear them with heels or wedges.
For everyday life
In everyday life, you also want to look stylish and elegant, while feeling comfortable and free. And the trends of recent years are even more conducive to this. Black trousers, oddly enough, fit perfectly into this concept. This is especially true for trendy culottes.
Strict classic, straight or tapered trousers will add charm and femininity, while not restricting movement if you need to move around the city a lot. Moreover, all global trends have officially made it possible to combine such pants with comfortable sports shoes and sneakers.
Often black trousers are freely replaced with the same jeans, the comfort of which cannot be doubted. And due to the base color, they become more universal and acceptable for most everyday and business looks.
When choosing black cropped trousers, you need to take into account that they visually shorten your legs. To avoid this, you need to choose shoes or tops of the same color, create a total black look, or take shoes with medium or high heels. However, tall girls with long legs can wear this model in any combination.
Black is the base color, and these trousers or jeans will fit perfectly into any look. A discreet top will make your look more formal, while unusual but not flashy accessories or cut details will help diversify your office style.
Cropped black trousers
Cropped trousers require very careful attention to the selection of companion items. If tall, long-legged girls can safely wear them with flat-soled shoes, then girls with plus-size figures and those who cannot boast of long legs can only wear them with heels. Otherwise, the figure may become even more squat.
Each height has its own length, but the basic rule remains the same - trousers should end at the narrowest point of the leg. For most people, this place is the ankle, which means their optimal length is 7/8 (the so-called “English length”).
Narrow straight models with a length of 7/8 can be combined with plain blouses (or with a classic discreet print), and classic jackets. It is advisable to choose shoes with heels. 3/4 sleeves are welcome. Short girls should be careful with tunics.
With pink
Black creates an interesting pairing with pink. Let the pink thing play first fiddle in your look. So, a pink cropped shirt with a matching bag looks stylish. However, instead of pink, absolutely any color could be here (for example, yellow or red). But choose neutral sandals, in an olive shade, so that they do not break the look into several separate blocks.

Pants styles
Classic pants
Classic trousers are popular at any time. They can be found in almost every wardrobe. However, according to designers, you should not make the image strictly classic. Just add a men's cut shirt to your trousers and you will turn into a successful businesswoman. And if you want to become more feminine, take a closer look at translucent blouses. Another option is a jacket. Moreover, it can be both shortened and lengthened. In order to emphasize your waist, you will need the first option, and to visually appear taller - the second. We do not recommend combining trousers with a black jacket - then the look will turn out to be too office-like. You can buy white, beige, cream or even mint cardigans. Please note: bright colors are not popular.
Cropped trousers
As practice shows, a competent combination of such trousers and a top makes the silhouette attractive. The first option is, of course, office. Wearing a formal shirt and cropped trousers, you will look stylish if you complement the look with glasses, a belt, and heels. Next option: black top, black or cream jacket, patent leather shoes. If you are creating a casual look, pay attention to comfortable shoes, T-shirts and oversized jumpers in a soft color (for example, gray).

Tapered trousers
Tapered trousers skillfully emphasize the dignity of the figure. This is why the fairer sex loves them so much. By the way, this is the option that is considered universal. A silk blouse and patent leather shoes go perfectly with black skinny trousers. An outfit for work, for a walk, and for a holiday. If you choose a loose-fitting blouse, then you can throw a long jacket on top. Bought leather trousers? Match them with a denim shirt and accessories. Complementing the look with sneakers, you will get a street version, and high-heeled shoes - a romantic look.
Since summer has passed unnoticed, it's time to think about autumn looks. And the following would be a suitable option: black skinny trousers, a plaid shirt, an oversized jumper, a classic coat. Bright details in the form of a small shoulder bag and a neat hat, for example, will help diversify your look in the fall. For everyday wear, knitted or linen trousers are worn with voluminous sweaters - they look both warm and stylish.
High-waisted trousers
High-waisted models (straight or flared) are especially popular among fashionistas. They wear short sweatshirts, crop tops, and sweaters. Plain blouses also look interesting. And often loose or semi-fitting blouses are worn with such trousers.
Tight trousers
Tight trousers beautifully highlight your figure. Blazers, jackets and cardigans look great with them. Moreover, you can choose different styles and colors. It also works well if you combine a black turtleneck with trousers (especially important in winter).

Culottes
Kilo pants were especially popular last year. They often create a monochrome look: black trousers, a turtleneck of the same color, and a bag. Neat pumps dilute the color scheme. A lingerie-style top will also look good, but it will be better if there is no lace on it.
Pants with stripes
Black trousers with stripes are not recommended to be worn to the theatre, work or an evening event. Although in all cases there may be exceptions. In a casual look, trousers are in harmony with T-shirts, shirts, and leather jackets. If you want to add elegance to your look, then look at silk or satin tunics or long blouses. An accessory in the form of a wide-brimmed hat will turn you into a stylish lady.
Stylish looks
This season, oversized sweaters in pastel colors have acquired a V-neck and wide sleeves, which goes perfectly with skinny black trousers.
A knitted item can be safely worn on a romantic date, and it should be complemented with chunky sneakers in bright colors. The trend is skinny pants and a stretched jumper worn over a wide T-shirt. A biker biker jacket and men's lace-up boots complete the look.
A stylish men's look has a shortened hem, rolls up, opens the shoes and is combined with a dark-colored shirt. A light leather jacket is usually thrown on top.
An excellent tandem would be skinny chinos, a black and white checkered coat and leather boots. Particular attention will need to be paid to socks, because they are visible in both cases.
Black trousers can be not only part of the office dress code. They can be classic or original, but in any case, they are a real lifesaver for any person.

What to wear with in autumn and winter
Tweed, wool, and thick denim will reliably keep your feet warm and complement a stylish outfit in the cold season. Models with a classic full-length cut, but not flares, are a trendy winter theme. Outerwear burdens the image, so you should not use too long, loose items.
A winter tandem of black pipe trousers with a cashmere sweater up to the hip line and a scarf is an option for work or walking. Jackets and vests will insulate the set. Match the tone of the trousers or play with a dim contrast. For example, a classic white shirt at the waist is worn with a gray vest or a brown jacket.
It’s easy to choose outerwear for tight pants: a long fur coat, a down jacket, and a short jacket will harmoniously fit into the created look. Tube-legs require jackets and fur vests with mid-thigh length. Any high-waisted trousers look good with short outerwear.
