We have many clients who are not big on wearing shorts. We get it. They’re tough if you’re not a fan of your legs. So then the question becomes, what do you wear all summer long that will keep you cool but still be comfortable and chic? It’s not always realistic to wear skirts and dresses, but jeans can be so hot during the 90+ degree days (will we ever get there? This winter is lasting forever!). In years past we would recommend the skinny cargo pant, but this year we’re seeing more and more of the crop, or skimmer, pant. The leg can be skinny or more relaxed (think boyfriend fit), it comes in a rainbow of colors, but one thing is consistent: you roll the cuff. It should hit slightly above your ankle, the skinniest part of your leg. Here are a few ways to wear the cropped pant this summer!
Basic: Throw on your most comfy basic tee and accessorize with a colorful scarf, cross body bag, and studded sandals.
Casual: We love blazers, and one in a lightweight fabric (such as linen) and in a springtime color or pattern (we love stripes!) is a perfect accent to your crop pants. Add some ankle strap flats and a pendant necklace, and you can be chic and comfy while running about town.
Dressy: We’re adding a silver silk top and some art deco accessories (Great Gatsby inspired!) to take the crop pant into night.
