Though available at all of your favorite retailers in a variety of colors and fabrics, I stuck to basics and purchased a pair in black linen – great for the warm months ahead!     The “Ecote Farrah Culottes” in charcoal (black if you ask me) are fabulous!

When it came to styling these things, I stuck to my own advice and went with a fitted tank. Balance out a loose fitting garment on the bottom with a tight fitting garment on the top.

How to wear a pair of cullotes

 

The “Ecote Farrah Culottes” in charcoal (black if you ask me) are fabulous! Featuring a high-rise waist, structured wide legs and pockets – what more could you ask for in a statement item. When it came to styling these things, I stuck to my own advice and went with a fitted tank. Balance out a loose fitting garment on the bottom with a tight fitting garment on the top. I decided to keep it simple with a monochromatic theme, and pair these pants with a grayish black printed tank top. Although it would of been a-ok to leave the shirt untucked, I tucked it in for a tidy look and fasted a black ornate belt around my waist. Belts can have the same affect on an outfit as a scarf. They instantly and effortlessly jazz up your attire. To compliment the bling on my waist, I wore the most sparkly neck candy I own. Finally, I hit the San Francisco streets in my ankle strap black and white sandals and a black and white plaid clutch wallet. This pretty little thing is very handy. Not only does it fit an iPhone 6 Plus but it easily stores your credit cards and driver’s license thanks to the built-in card slots. For $16.99, you cannot go wrong with adding one of these items to your clutch purse collection. Thank Target for that one!

But let’s get real, there is nothing more versatile than a pair of white shorts…dress ’em up or down with the right accessories. Excited to break out a pair of white cuffed shorts for the first time this season, I have a feeling I’ll be “setting them and forgetting them” after the next few months!   For years I’ve been successful at finding a modest pair of shorts at Express. The signature 4.5 inch belted cuffed shorts are offered in a variety of colors and the longer length makes them suitable for many occasions. Tuck a chiffon blouse into these shorts and fasten them with a metallic leather belt, or pair them with your favorite cotton top and adorn yourself in jewelry. In the ensemble below I went the second route. If you do not yet own a button down chambray shirt, get on it! These shirts can play the role of a light jacket or a blouse. For the look below, I chose to dress up my chambray shirt with a beaded statement necklace. Sticking with blue tones, I further accessorized with lace up […]
