Today’s look mixes both new and vintage. There’s just something about culottes that conjures images of 1930s/40s style for me, but no matter the decade, this pant will always be classic. I had been searching for a white pair of culottes and really love this style I found from Nordstrom (currently 40% off!) The silky fabric is lined, there’s a little bit of elastic in the back of the waist for comfort, and most importantly, no alterations were required–I am barely 5’4″ and have to get a lot of my pants hemmed.crop top with culottes outfit, Chanel quilted leather trim sunglassesDespite the fact that these culottes are vintage-inspired, wearing them with a crop top is definitely modern and gives this outfit a fresh spin.Stuart Weitzman Nudist black leather stiletto sandals with culotteshow to wear culottes, white culottes outfit, crop top with culottes, Chanel classic flap bag black lambskin with gold hardwareAs with most cropped pants, I like to wear culottes with heels since it helps elongate my legs, and delicate ankle-strap sandals balance out their billowy silhouette.cropped culottes outfit, crop top with white culottes, Chanel medium classic bag, how to wear culottes for summerwhite culotte cropped pants with stiletto sandals, Chanel classic quilted flap bag black lambskin with gold hardwareThanks to their breezy style, culottes are the perfect solution for summer nights when you want a little more coverage but need to stay cool, which is just what I did for dinner on our last night in Capri. They are definitely a transitional piece for fall as well: I’m imagining mine with a cropped leather jacket or a sleeveless turtleneck once cooler weather arrives.
