Denim, khaki, linen, twill — no matter the fabric, crop those pants. Long bottoms have their place, but short ones feel especially modern at the moment. To achieve the look, you can either cuff your long pants, cut them, or buy them 'ready cropped.
This Victoria's Secret Chambray Cargo Crop Pant ($50) screams fresh. The pockets lend utilitarian chic, while the drawstring ankles give the ability to make them as fitted or loose as desired.
Cropped jeans can give your ankles a needed breath of fresh air during these hot months of bliss. My eyes ogled out of their sockets when I came across these Opening Ceremony Seamed Jeans ($70, originally $140) in the sale section at Creatures of Comfort. Find a fun assortment of laid-back luxury at this shop with items marked up to a whopping 75 percent off.
Trend Alert: Ankle Grazer Trousers A new denim trend is sweeping the fashion world in time for Spring. There are a few names for the new length skinnies which are just longer than capri pants and just shorter than full length, they're being referred to as 'ankle grazers', '7/8ths' and 'cigarette pants'. The look is a classic style which was pioneered by style icon Audrey Hepburn and is now being led by denim-guru Kate Moss.
You and a bevy of your closest guy and gal pals are gathering on the beach Friday evening for a little ring-in-the-weekend bonfire — think The Hills! It gets a little chilly with the sea breeze in the evening, so I reminded you to make sure to bring a jacket, and some sand-friendly shoes.
I started you off with these J Brand 10" Ankle Skinny Stretch Jean ($159) in charcoal, in honor of the bonfire.
Let's see what you all came up with!
Look # 1, created by elanakat is super cute; I love her color palette of coral, grey, and shiny black.

What to wear when you don't want to wear full-on long jeans but it's too chilly to wear a skirt? I am a longtime fan of cropped jeans, they are fabulous for several reasons:
If that's not enough reason for you to attempt to wear these functional cuties I give up! Oh, and for those who are going to claim they are too short to wear cropped jeans - use SJP as your guide and just throw on a hot pair of heels (Roger Vivier or not!).
Siwy. Not only is this denim brand fun to say, apparently it's fun to wear. Mischa, Rachel, Kate H. and Kate M. have all been spotted wearing these slimmers. These are especially pretty jeans with a floral insignia on the back pockets.
Siwy can be found at azaleasf.com who have a special promotion through 12/3; if you spend more than $100 (one pair of Siwys) you receive a full size detox kit ($45 value) from Skyn Iceland. Use code "SKYN" at checkout.
