In past years, we have seen the rise of the skinny jean...somewhat unfortunately, as skin-tight clothing is not a flattering choice for all body types. Now, however, many have begun to wonder if the heyday of the skinny jean is coming to an end.
More and more frequently, culottes are being seen as a go-to pant, as they are light, comfy, easy, flattering, etc. Great for travel, too-- much more versatile for long, international airplane flights than skinny pants. Top fashionistas, including Gigi Hadid and Victoria Beckham, have recently been seen sporting culottes on both the street and the red carpet; the baggy look is coming back into style.
Culottes have a classy look which skin-tight pants lack. Whether you choose to dress up or dress down your pair of culottes, you are sure to achieve a unique style which will set you apart from everyone else in the room. Here are some ways to wear culottes:
With a leather jacket.
With a collared shirt.
With a tee shirt.
With a simple blouse.
With a long cardigan or vest.
With a denim jacket.
As always, the shoes can determine whether an outfit is dressy or casual. Consider finishing your culottes ensemble with white sneakers (see previous post) for an informal outfit or with a pair of heels for a formal one.
