The culottes

What you need to know:

This is one of those trends that rocked the years way before 2000. Well, looks like it is back and it is hotter than ever before.

When I was about seven years old, I remember my late aunt buying me a pair of wide legged shorts, which at the time were called Bermuda shorts. In the fashion language, we call these culottes and they are a big style trend right now.

The culottes are a good way to show off how fashionable you can be, without opting for skin tight pieces. In fact, you will discover that this item is way more comfortable than the skinny jeans.

The culottes are normally flared and are best worn at the mid-calf.
I don’t know about you, but I personally love a fashion piece that I can fit into a number of looks. This is exactly what the culottes do. You can wear them with a pair of air max sneakers, then you can change this and put on a pair of heels and a cute clutch to this for an evening cocktail.

Slim fit tops only

You need to know that there is nothing sexy about having a buggy outfit, so I suggest you wear your culottes with a tight fitting top, so that the look balances out. You can add a tailored blazer to it for a good finish.
