From Wide Legs to Crops; The New Pants for Spring

{BLOGPOST} Move over skinnies, there's some new pants in town! From crops to culottes, there is something new for everyone at every price.

As much as I love my skinny jeans, I am excited to see some new pant styles emerging this spring season.

A few that have caught my eye lately are wide leg crops, crops, culottes (yes, they are making a comeback) and sleeveless jumpsuits.

  • Wide leg crops are easy to wear, proportion is the key. Wear these above your ankle with a high waist for a beautiful nipped in waist shape. Keep the top tucked in or cropped.
  • If wide legs are not for you, try a more tapered crop pant. Again, keep the look lean on top to show off your waist. This style is currently trending with a high waist making it oh-so-flattering.
  • Culottes. This seasons culotte is elegant and fluid. Think of these as a replacement for your skirt. Pair them up with a crop jacket - a great option to mix up your work look!
  • Sleeveless jumpsuit are everywhere this season available in everything from minimalist to sassy on the town styles. I see this easy to wear style replacing a few of my maxi dresses that I have lived in the past few seasons. Available in all pant styles; wideleg crop, crop, culotte and full length wide leg there truly is a style for everyone willing to try it out. The key is; like when pant shopping, finding the fit and look that works for you. Think of jumpsuits as a dress with legs. Like a dress, the top may fit great but not the bottom or vise versa. Get the one that fits you best on top or bottom, then have the other half tailored for a great fit.
