Get a leg up...again and again.

Once swishing around the legs of mod lasses in the '60s, billowy culottes made a comeback in 2004, competing seam to seam with its slimmer rival, capri pants. The casual trousers have made a splash again, at least witnessed in the latest catalog of Anthropologie. The classic navy blue pair as seen in the right gets a modern updo with a chunky belt, gauzy blouse and skyscraper wedges. Have culottes truly revived themselves for this still minty new decade or has Anthropologie just simply tacked on another romantic piece to its breezy, feminine line-up? Whether or not they're trendy again, culottes should be lauded for their sensibility and flexibility. Dust off that pair you've tucked away in your dressing room's corner then complement it with a ruffled top. Don't get lost in all that legroom, ladies.
