I tried to raise my fashion game by wearing white culottes for a day downtown Athens. They are this season’s hot cropped pants and even though it took me a while to get used to them, I ordered one in white from Missguided.
Culottes is a French word and historically referred to the knee-breeches commonly worn by gentlemen of the European upper-classes from the late Middle Ages or Renaissance through the early nineteenth century.
If you are looking for office trousers with a twist this is your cool summer option. Wide-leg pants have fast become a wardrobe essential.
I am wearing my new white culottes with a black perforated leather Equipment t-shirt top I got from a Nordstrom sale last winter. (I am telling you sales like Net-a-Porter clearance is the right time and place to build your wardrobe… )
However, I would wear also them with flat sandals and stripped top for a summer relaxed look.
My pants has belt loops for adding a belt when wearing a cropped top or a shirt.
Culottes are versatile garments that look pulled together but relaxed… no doubt about that.

I have to admit, I was not the biggest fan of culottes when I first saw them, but you seriously know how to rock them! I adore that you elevated the look with the leather shirt and heels. You look so chic!!

Wow – what a gorgeous look! I am now convinced I Need some of these pants in my life. Love everything about how you have styled them here.
Thank you Jennie …now I see my pics and I believe I need the black culottes from Asos too….
I am uncertain about the culottes, specifically in how I would look in them but your styling has taken away my doubt. I love how it’s paired with the black top and heels, so fresh and chic! And of course…I heart your Celine bag! Xo Elaine
Thank you! That Celine bag was an investment!

Love those Culottes. I think they can be such a hard pant to wear though for a lot of people! I tend to look better in ones that are more fitted but I’m SO jealous of these! They are cut so well.
These are equally flattering I think… it’s getting used to the different proportions!
I’m obsessed with this look! I love black and white! Thanks for linking up!
Glad you like it Sarah 🙂
Wow, utterly stunning, so chic and stylish-love the whole look! Thanks for linking up to #fashionfriday, hope you can join in again tomorrow!
