Along the Northeast Corridor, we are still stuck with at least five more weeks of winter. If you find the sight of your hardworking trousers unbearable at this point, we can hardly blame you. Veronica Beard, the brainchild of two sisters-in-law, is primarily known for its jackets, which is a damn shame, given how well its pants fit. The slim Clarence style is made of a woven check that incorporates various shades of blue and chestnut for a bit of panache.
