There’s something sassy, dare we say ballsy about girls’ wearing boys’ pants. Slung low on the hips with a little thong action peeking out. The simple flat-front, specially treated with ScotchGuard (so no worries if you spill that mojito) and that neat perma-crease.

Dickies! Yes, the workingman?s best-kept secret (okay, every art director has multiple pairs). We imagine those fireman types lounging around in them off-duty. For 25 bucks … admit it, you?re sort of fascinated with that whole GI Joe thing in surplus stores.

We like to wear a black pair with a sparkly baby-tee and four-inch Blahniks. C’mon, tell us that isn’t “work”: We challenge the burly men who do dirty jobs in these pants to walk a mile in our shoes.
