HOW TO STYLE CULOTTES 1

culottes, how to style, all black, monochrome, sheer

Photogrpahy by Blessing Audu

Hey guys, long time no post, I know. Lately my focus on blogging has been dwindling. The demands of running a blog in this part of the world have finally gotten to me and I've decided to step back a bit. While I don't want my consistency to drop I believe this is the best thing for me now. So from now on I will be posting only one outfit post a week and something else if I'm inspired. For now, I can't say what day the posts will be coming but I will let you know once I work it out.

Anyways I recently thrifted this pair of culottes and thought why not show two ways of styling this versatile piece. This time I went with a sheer black oversize blouse which was thrifted as well. My mom thinks I should stop thrifting but hey I'm not exactly rich plus I keep finding all these unique items so sorry mom I won't be stopping anytime soon. I just love the relaxed feel of this outfit, I wore this to church last week and I love that it makes me look smaller than I actually am. Just a quick tip, black and slightly oversize clothing is a great way to look a lot thinner than you actually are.

Stay tuned for part two

What are your thoughts on this look?

I never know how to style culottes or if they'd suit me. I love, love, love this shirt and how you've styled them. All black outfits always have this certain chic elegance about them that is just unbeatable.

Lovely outfit. I'm the queen of using a bit of oversized outfits to look thinner.
