March Shopping Madness! Crop Those Pants
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.
Celebrity Style: Claudia Schiffer
You know, it's really hard to try to incorporate color into your wardrobe when Supers like Claudia make black, white, and nude look so good. Claudia attended the 2009 Fashion Fringe launch party in London looking like a modern Barbie doll. I also want to give a shout out to her wearing pants — you can do a lot with cool pants, but so many celebs veer toward skirts and dresses.
Spring Peek: Cropped Pants
If anything stood out on the Spring runways it was the new pant styles. Harem, bermuda, pedal pusher, leggings, rolled, tailored — we witnessed them all. As someone who has always been keen on cropped pants — what better way to show off your Fab shoes?
Celebrity Style: Claudia Schiffer
On the heels of her Spring Yves Saint Laurent ad release, Claudia struts her supermodel stuff in a perfectly layered ensemble. Her street style is absolutely admirable. While not everyone can pull off cropped pants and ankle boots — I only recommend that if you're tall and/or lanky — there are other creative things going on here.
3.1 Phillip Lim Pleated Linen Trousers: Love It or Hate It?
The rich blue hue and slight crinkled effect on these 3.1 Phillip Lim Pleated Linen Trousers ($275) are worth mentioning. And while I'm still warming up to the new pant silhouette, these are a contender. Alas, they're trendy and I just don't think very flattering, do you?
Look of the Day: Poised to Perfection
The cloudy skies of London don't deter THEHOUSEOFSTYLE from looking good, no, great. She's poised to perfection in her fresh ensemble. Her citron yellow top adds a burst of vibrancy to her dark cropped trousers and check out the gold detailing on her booties and belt.
Trend Alert: Ankle Skimming Pants
Scenario: It's cold, raining, and you don't know what to wear. A dress proves to be too flimsy and wearing pants would leave you soaked and muddy all day long. Believe me, I know what it's like to sit around in wet hems.
New York Fashion Week, Spring 2009: The New Pant
The item of clothing to put under the microscope from the Spring New York collections is the pants. Pant play has been creeping up on us — from Louis Vuitton's cropped and tailored trousers to Nina Ricci's silky pajama pants — but no item of clothing was rejiggered more than the pant. While Harem pants and slinky trousers have dramatic flair and seem to float down the runway, the real life wear is questionable.
Ralph Lauren Black Label Devon Silk Shantung Pant: Love It or Hate It?
How wonderfully Sandra D are these Ralph Lauren Black Label Devon Silk Shantung Pant ($300, originally $498)? True, I would not wear them in my day-to-day; false, I would turn them down come Halloween. The bright pink is so intoxicating, and you know I love the retro appeal of a cropped pant.
Online Sale Alert! Spring Sale at Gap
Even though Spring is just budding, Gap is already holding a sale of up to 40 percent off much of their Spring merchandise.
The sale encompasses tops, dresses, skirts, pants, outerwear, intimates, and even swimwear, but these Gap Colored capris ($35, originally $45) have especially caught my eye. Aren't they the perfect pair of cropped pants?
