My computer took exception to being dropped and I wasn't able to see my screen. I'm just now getting caught up on a huge backlog of work.
As I said in my last post,
yesterday's is what I would use.

You're OK by: Audrey
Yesterday's trousers are fine in this case.

I am adding some more text as you requested, I hope this is enough. by: Jacqueline
I walked up the stone staircase wearing yesterday?s blue trousers and fleecy sweater, and just as I reached the last step I heard my mother?s anxious voice from the other side of the wall. ?Don?t go to sleep yet. Emma is here.? It was 7.00 a.m. on a cold day in March and I had just let myself into Tramonto, my parents? home and winery. I went straight into their bedroom with its slanted terra cotta ceiling and wood beams to see my father lying in his bed: a skeleton covered by a thin layer of skin. He barely acknowledged me. He was flapping his hand on the embroidered blanket and I felt obliged to get on the bed beside him. I had not held his hand since I was a child.

It all depends by: Audrey
Whether you say yesterday's or the previous day's depends on the surrounding text. Without more context, I can't say which would be better.
I am working on limited computer access right now, so I can't take the time to give you context myself. I hope to be back up to speed later this week. In the mean time, if you can post back as a comment giving more of the surrounding text, I will give you a more complete reply.
