COOL FOR CULOTTES

posted by Elshane on May 6 2014, under Fashion

Effortless flow comes with the territory of random summer heat waves in California. Such was the case this past Saturday while visiting the LACMA. In 95 degree dry heat, I grabbed the airiest item in my closet, these brand new (and mega affordable) culottes that give spring a perfect note of cool. Pack away the summer flowy skirts and replace them with this season's version: the culotte/ gaucho/ pants jam that has every blogger whispering from afar ;)

Who knows, the dance in these pants might just have you stopping for an impromptu stop-and-shoot to stake your claim on this breezy new silhouette territory. Just promise me you won't wear them with flip-flops, k?

I've been a huge fan of the drop crotch ever since I spent nearly a year ON TOUR with Justin Bieber {styling opening act Carly Rae Jepsen} and watched him eat, sleep and breathe the drop.

There's a certain air of confidence that comes with walking with a secret stash in your crotch. I've been known to carry extra gold chains and sometimes Peanut M&M's in the open, unused space. I can only imagine what Justin was slangin' in that crotch all year long.

Meaning? A drop crotch is only for a select few who are in need of multi-tasking. Or a third hand.

Do you dare?

A jumpsuit can go such a long way… CUE:

Ate too much breakfast. Jumpsuit.

Can’t find my jeans. Jumpsuit.

Didn’t shave my legs. Jumpsuit.

Nail are too long to handle zippers. Jumpsuit.

Don’t feel like fitting in. Jumpsuit.

Don’t feel like standing out. Jumpsuit.

List can go on.

I am grooving with this neutralized pink hue for spring. It’s an ode to mauve, which is a scary hue for many, but the brightness of this core pink gives it a nod of mod.  You can try the hue in just about any silhouette, which you can find on my shopping scroll, below! I vote for a top to pair back to white jeans for effortless summer chic.
