So if there is anything that I have noticed while perusing the stores for the latest fall fashion trends, it is that the cropped pants that I thought had been retired along with my middle school yearbook have made a return to the fashion scene.
This time, instead of wearing them with t-shirts and tennis shoes, they are being incorporated into business wardrobes and chic weekend wear. Now, we don't have to worry that the cropped pant will shorten our legs, because you can wear them with heels! Lastly, these types of pants are what I call an in between the seasons item. They make great transitory pieces from the late summer to the early fall.
If you prefer a more casual look, go for a pair like the Monrow Slouchy Twill Cigarette Pants from Nordstrom. Notice that the model is not wearing a pair of sneakers with these very casual pants. She wears black basket weave platform sandals such as these cagework Calvin Klein 'Chelsi' sandals:
If you're headed out to the Labor Day Barbecues at the end of this summer, try a seersucker print cropped pant like the Lauren by Ralph Lauren 'Gwen' cropped cargo pant. To spice it up, add a strappy wooded platform sandal like Coach's 'Simona' sandal shown here in Salmon/Tan.
Lastly, pair the Marc by Marc Jacobs 'Baillie' pinstripe pant with a classic black patent leather pump or spice it up with an animal print wedge like Sam Edelman's 'Katrice' sandal for casual Fridays.
