They’re not quite shorts, and certainly not your usual trousers as culottes are a little long for hot sweaty summers and too short for the winter. These infinitely versatile pants have been sticking around for yet another season and that makes some people’s hearts very very happy (like Emma’s – she’s a HUGE fan).
Oh, Culottes: you hate them or you love them. These cropped pants are certainly not flattering on everyone and that makes it kind of a tricky trend. They tend to make your legs look short and finding the right fit can be quite a challenge.
But they’re definitely something special and look very chic, depending on how you style them. Heels, sneakers, boots, anyone? Did you know they’ve been around for a while? Fun fact: the original culottes were actually worn by men since the Middle Ages.
What are your thoughts on culottes? Yay, or nay?

YAY! Been wearing them all spring and summer (summer in Sweden isn’t that sweaty – unfortunately). Perfect for a chill outfit with sneakers or heels for going out on the town
It only looks good on models.
Yes, super chic’, I’ve been into for quite a while now, love it.
Yay!
LOve all beauties in different colors
So pretty right? :) X
There’s a line for me, too fussy and I’m like “nay” but just the right amount and I’m all “oooooh yay!!!”

Hey there!
I personally love Culottes and I hope they’ll stick around for another year. I’m actually wearing one right now ;D and I love the photos you chose for this article, I think they perfectly show that you can wear Culottes without looking like a circus (;
I posted a photo of my favourite ones a few days back in Vienna, in case you wanna check it out (: I’d be more than happy to hear your opinion! Have a great day,
