Winter Cropped Pants

Now we can take cropped pants with us into fall. They have been given the makeover with heavy winter materials, darker shades and plaid patterns-perfect for fall. And the way to wear it? With boots of course. So essentially it would be as if you'd tucked your pants into your boots-minus the hassle of actually doing so!

And no one does it better than Daria in this Zara shoot. She looks absolutely amazing and casually chic.
Other options would be this one from Top Shop, which looks really similar to the one Daria's wearing, except with more subtle stripes.

But it is actually really hard to wear this cropped pants/boots combo properly. I saw this girl on the streets wearing it, and it just did not look right. I didn't take a picture, but her problem is very aptly displayed in the Urban Outfitters catalog above. Does this model look stumpy and short to anyone else?

So to clarify, this cropped pants/boots combo should only be done with fitted cropped pants and sleek heeled boots. It also helps if you are tall, but thats not an absolute requirement. So please stop wearing gauchos with boots. But if you must, wear something fitted on top to balance it out.

Kate Moss has actually been doing this for a few years. I have been waiting for it to take hold in the magazines prior to trying it out myself..

thanks

I think it helps if the boots are longer so it looks more streamlined.

its an interesting question though isnt it... should we always be aiming for a long thin silhouette? most people talk as if it simply goes without saying but its something that hasn't really been discussed... one of the best dressed women i know- one of the fashion designers of dogstar- is quite short- she never dresses to 'accommodate her height' ie; by wearing long skirts/ full length pants/ long boots etc. instead she focuses on colour and brilliantly cut clothes that highlight her best features. she always looks fantastic but most importantly, i think, is that she always looks interesting- when you see her you want to talk to her- she was voted to be one of the most fascinating women in australia. of course people should always try and wear clothes that flatter but i don't think thats all that fashion is about- if it was everyone would look the same- and thats no fun at all!

There are some things to avoid when learning how to wear skinny pants. You should never buy a size that is too small. These pants are not forgiving, and they will not give to fit someone that larger than size they are trying to fit into. For them to fit properly, you must buy appropriate size.
