culottes: date night or any time fashion inspiration

Happy Valentine’s Day y’all! However way you’re celebrating or maybe not celebrating, be safe! I decided to share a look that is perfect for day or night with you today. I wore this outfit yesterday to a Galentine’s Day event and I got a lot of compliments which prompted me to take photos. The star of my looks is this abstract print culottes by Shop Desire 1709.

Shop Desire is a small business and I love supporting small businesses. When I was recently approached by the owner to collaborate, I was drawn to these pants. I absolutely love the print and the style of this culottes. I am wearing them in a UK size 10 which is equivalent to a US 6. I love the pleats on the back too, it makes it super flattering whether you are blessed with a big bum or not. I highly recommend purchasing them, click HERE for details. She ships worldwide and can be contacted via Instagram HERE. See other times I have worn Culottes HERE for more styling options.

My lace top is by Pretty Little Things via ASOS. I love the high bib neck and the fact that it is long sleeved. I am restyling this top today. I wore it on my last post.

Style Tip: For a more subtle look wear a camisole underneath as I did in the photo below. You can see the blog post HERE.

My faux leather jacket by Topshop is one of my favorite purchases this year.

“A leather jacket or a faux option is one of what I consider a closet staple.”

I snagged this pair for under $100 and unlike a lot of faux jackets I have gotten/seen in the past, it looks and feels like the real thing. If you’re shopping for a jacket that you want to wear years from now, I highly recommend this Leather look biker jacket by Topshop. Sizing: I went up a size from my usual size 6 (They fit super snug, hence why I did)

In celebration of Valentine’s Day, I decided to add something to my look to celebrate the day. My earrings, called the Amalia drop earrings are by Baublebar. They are available for $38 and are statement earrings without the weight of a traditional statement piece.  Check out Baublebar to shop their END OF SEASON SALE going on.
