Transitioning Culottes into Winter

How to Wear Spring Fashion Trend Culotest

Culottes took the spring runways by storm and were a huge trend over the summer.  The trend continues into fall, but maybe you aren’t sure how to work them into your fall wardrobe.

  •  Retire the light fabrics and go for a more structured cut in a heavier fabric.  My favorite. My Favorites are these black faux leather culottes by Missguided
  • Wear Boots.  Whatever height you want–ankle, calf, or knee.  These will help keep your legs warm while still giving you the volume effect of the culottes.
  • Keep your upper body warm with some structure.  A blazer, sweater, leather jacket
  • Dress them up with a crisp button down shirt.  Consider wearing a vest over it for some added warmth and structure.

You guys, fall is here! In Rochester you could even say Winter has come! I’m in denial on that one just yet, but lets talk fall, leather, midi skirts, fall colors…

So outfit of the day this week – leather!  Who doesn’t love a leather skirt in the fall when the wind it getting a little cool.

As seen here, S is pairing this fall green leather midi skirt with a simple lace appliqué top taking leather to the workplace, or just out for a date night with friends.

We’ve put away all our summer sandals for a much needed rest, and broken out the wedges, closed toes, and booties for fall.

Don’t forget your bling. The thing that takes an okay outfit to a great outfit is the accessories.  Here we went with a neutral shoe and a long necklace. Since the skirt is leather and the shirt has lace trim, you don’t want to overwhelm the outfit with lots of different pieces. Choose carefully to have a classy look. Sometimes there is such a thing as too much, so keep it simple, classy, and you can’t go wrong.

Until next week! xoxo ~ Em and S

They are everywhere this spring, and it looks like this trend will not be leaving us anytime soon.  Culottes may be intimidating, but really they are easy to wear, and oh so comfortable!  Here are a few tips on how to work them into your wardrobe.

I have a few pairs, including jean and pinstriped ones, but this pair is my favorite! I love the print! There are so many options, so starters, find a pair that has a look you feel flatters your body and your style.How to Wear Spring Fashion Trend Culotest

Tie up your shirt.  If you read my post on How to Wear Midi Skirts, you know one of my first pieces of advice for people who are stepping outside of their fashion comfort zone is to balance out your clothes.  Culottes are longer and looser, so balance it out by putting a knot in your shirt to make it shorter and more form fitting.  Here, I paired it with some amazing gladiator heels, which are pretty much a staple in my wardrobe.How to Wear Spring Fashion Trend Culotest

If you are bolder, another way to balance out your culottes is by pairing it with a crop top.  Yep, culottes almost beg to be worn this way!  Choose higher waisted culottes, so you only see a little skin for a classier look.  Here, I wore them with this amazing leather crop top for an edgier vibe.

Pants or Dress? How about both!

What does one do when you really want to wear a dress, but the temperatures outside are in the single digits?  I will do almost anything for fashion, but I had a few things to do before meeting Em for a glass of wine, and I didn’t want to freeze!

Sylish Two: Dress over Pants

Dresses being worn over pants is a trend that crept up last fall, and I am happy it did!  It allows a fashionable ladies, such as myself, to extend the wear of her dresses into a season that it might be a bit too cold to comfortably wear normally.

Here, I cstdresspantBhose to pair a simple jersey dress over leather skinny jeans, which are also a trend this season.  I loved the contrast in textures, which added dimension to the outfit.  I threw on a leopard cardigan, which added more interest to a more monotone outfit.  After all, adding that third piece, especially when it is a piece of interest, always elevates the look.

I also added a pop of color, with my shoes.  They are a two-tone pair of brown pumps that matched my clothes great, but with a bright turquoise toe cap!  The shoes were actually a DIY project after Is2dresspantC scuffed the toe of one of these shoes so badly I thought I would have to part with them.  Instead, I got creative, and love the result!

I loved the way the look came out (and so did Em), so if you find yourself going out this winter on when its a little too cold to rock that dress you are lusting to wear, try throwing a pair of pants on under it!  Best of both words!
