You’ve heard them be called Pedal Pushers, Capris, Crops and Floods…so what’s the big deal about these short pants??

What are Capris?

Capri pants are a popular fashion trend with many women as they are casual, comfortable, more universally flattering than shorts, cover the knees and create versatile outfits. Capri pants are a nod to fashion icon Audrey Hepburn and 1950s and ’60s all-American vintage styling, accentuating the calves and ankles. This popular pant can be worn in any casual atmosphere, such as lounging at a  poolside bbq or out to dinner.

Will this trend last? 

This is a question I get a lot!  Capri pants have endured several trend revivals, proving to be a classic and timeless fashion statement for women.  The other aspect to this is comfort.  We are so hot here and, again, shorts don’t work for everyone.  Capri pants in ANY and EVERY length are here to stay!

How is the best way to wear capris?

Don’t think of capris as a special style that needs to be worn a certain way.  If it’s casual you want, instead of jeans…try jean capris (we recommend the Not Your Daughter’s capris).  If you have a dressier top to wear, instead of black slacks or a skirt, try a dressier capri (we LOVE  the Lauren Vidal Cosy pant for this).

What if I’m uncomfortable with the length?

First of all, definitely try on several pairs because Capris can be anywhere from the knee to the ankle and you want them to flatter your body.  Secondly, just try them!  We have had several converts who couldn’t be convinced until they just went ahead and bought a pair to try!

Capris with Bling!
