CULOTTES FOR THE FORMAL,PROFESSIONAL AND CHIC

I had been looking forward to sharing my interpretation of culottes with you but problem is, I've seen culottes styled a gazillion different ways and I very nearly gave up on styling this trend on the blog because I wasn't very intrested in showing you all a look that you would feel like you had seen one too many times. So you can imagine how pleased I was, when I ended up styling a formal interepretation of this trend, which is just about the only take on culottes, I'm yet to see.

I particularly like the formal  interpretation because I can imagine that it's very difficult for women who work in the corporate world to look professional and keep up with the trends they love at the same time. Fortunately this is one trend they and a range of other women no longer have to worry about. That's becasuse the formal look happens to be appropriate for a variety of situations from work, dressy brunches and lunches, to networking events, Church, even PTA meetings if you are the fashion conscious mum or styled with fun sunnies like the ones I'm wearing, just a day out if you are the kind of girl that loves the chic, sophisticated look.
