Blue Vanilla

Have I mentioned my love of culottes this year yet? I’m bordering on obsessed, such a versatile addition to both the work and play wardrobe the latest arrival in my wardrobe add a monochrome twist to Summer style.

Culottes c/o Blue Vanilla | Vest: New Look (last year) | Shoes c/o Clarks

Blue Vanilla isn’t a brand I am overly familiar with, or wasn’t until I saw it popping up all over my favourite blogs/bloggers. They have a website jam-packed with affordable on trend pieces and I just couldn’t resist the tropical palm print of these culottes despite them hardly being out of my monochrome comfort zone.

I thought this outfit would make a good alternative to my summer dress staple for work (I’m lucky enough to have a fairly relaxed dress code compared to some places) and they are easily smartened up with a slightly more fitted than I usually wear vest and my favourite work shoes from Clarks. They are one of the most comfortable things I own and I’m also looking forward to wearing them in a more casual way with a cropped tee and my Adidas Gazelle trainers.

Are you familiar with Blue Vanilla? How would you have styled these culottes?

    I love the idea of culottes (they bring back happy memories of a brown pair I wore as a ten year old in the Brownies) but I have yet to find the right pair that look good on my short frame and sans heels – one day!
