Half trousers and half skirt, these wide-legged separates are ideal for everyday wear. The cut was originally coined by the French, and was commonly worn by men.
Culottes are not a
new trend; you may have probably see it before. It’s popularly known as ‘skort’
or divided skirt. These are shorter palazzo pants and are comfortable, loose
and smart.
These are some of
the ways to nail the Culottes trend:
College Look:
It’s hard to look
hot and cool at the same time, right? Well, culottes can totally help you with
this dilemma. You can either team up your culottes with a crop top (which is
totally in vogue now) or with a bardot top. College is the time you can mix and
match a lot of things, so whatever you do...just keep it colourful!
Office Look
For the office look,
you could try pleated or cuffed versions in neutral colours. But make sure the lengh is below your knees. You are sure to rock that presentation with this look! :D
Cocktail Look
It’s ok if you
don’t have that LBD for the night! Just relax. Culottes can do wonders for a
cocktail look, and it may even make your stand out from the crowd :D
A simple tip here
would be to team up your outfit with a classy leather jacket.
Casual Look
Just keep it simple and casual! That’s more like my style. For a casual street style look, you could opt for denim culottes. There’s nothing more casual than denims. Wear plain or loose tees to team it up. If you love cotton, just go for plain colours.
Nerdy Look
Nerdy is cute! Yes, if you wear it the right way, even the nerdy look will make you look hot! You just got to team it up right with a round-shaped glass, a cool shoes and there you go!
