Happy Saturday! I am beyond excited to share this outfit this week! I have been a fan of Culottes for a long time, even through the gaucho fad a few years ago. They are also the IT pants for spring 2015 which makes them even more appealing. Culottes are a short girl’s Holy Grail because they don’t have to be tailored and can make you appear taller if the color scheme of outfit is monochromatic. I however, decided to take this outfit another route. I chose to pair the black culottes with a white top because as you know it is a timeless color combination. Culottes offer the illusion and elegance of a midi skirt but the practicality of pants. They are very versatile and can work with pretty much any combination of tops and shoes. You can pair it with high heels, flats, crop tops, blazers, button down shirts, etc. For a more chic look, I chose to pair these culottes with a crop top, (although it might not be a crop top on me).
And then the shoes….Oh where do I even begin with these shoes? I recently bought these shoes from Gilt and they are the perfect addition to my closet! They are extremely comfortable and definitely a statement piece
