Stunning Culottes Outfit

It's a Canadian holiday today so I'm home drinking a cup of coffee and reading the new Elle magazine - does it get any better than that?

Came across this page with a stunning culottes outfit and had to share since it relates to Angie's blog post today.

    Ha!  Guess what page I tore out of a certain magazine the other day and have sitting on my desk right in front of me??  Lose that hat, but deliver the rest to my address asap . Even the shoes are perfect.  There is a lot of layering and volume going on here though - and look at how tiny she really is.....but I'm sticking it on my bulletin board anyways.

    mine even has a coffee stain on it already (the pic, I mean) !

    Oh that is stunning: thanks for sharing. What a gorgeous version of the androgynous look. (Although I have no idea how her heels aren't sinking into the sand!)

    I LOVE this. I ditched a pair of culottes from BR a couple of years ago - I may have even posted them here and gotten a thumbs down. Dang it!

    Fab, I just need me some culottes now! Not sure they've reached the UK yet? X

    Pinning away :D .... Love it!

  • Marillen replied 9 years ago

    That is gorgeous!

     but...how massively padded is that hat so it won't fall over her entire head? It looks like someone photoshopped it in after the shoot :\

    The rest of the outfit is lovely, but the hat…well, it just makes me think of this:

    Stunning!  I want that whole outfit.

    Janet - hahaha!  Pharrell rocks with that hat!  The hat in the ad is so ridiculously huge on her tiny little head - way too fashion forward for all of us, apparently:)

    Thanks TS. I'm saving this for summer. 
    I love it & have similar pieces that I could style like this :)  

  • Angie replied 9 years ago

    Killer. 

  • Deborah replied 9 years ago

    That is how culottes are worn in my head lol.  Love this and keeping for inspiration.  I got rid of my too tight culottes in a recent purge and I definitely need new ones.

    Lisa - ok...that is just freaky!

    I figure she has to wear that freakishly large hat because she's not carrying a handbag - her cosmetics, hairbrush, cell phone, car keys, wallet and sunglasses are all tucked up there...lol!

    The clothing combination and setting are gorgeous. However, it gives me pause when it appears that the model's two ankles put together might be as wide as her chest. I realize it is inevitable with every ad or photo shoot for any American magazine, but really, that's photoshop at its finest (barely detectable, yet the proportions are... off).

    Just lovely, Shannon! Now I am drooling over a pair of culottes more than ever!

  • Beth Ann replied 9 years ago

    Lovely!  Can't imagine walking through sand with those heels!  Hee.

    Let's call it a Mary Poppins hat - you know, instead of all of the stuff in that carpetbag purse, it's all in her hat!

    Love! I think that is very similar to something in their Autumn show, which I loved.

    Wow, you are right, Shannon, that is a stunning culottes outfit. My second thought was as E said, those shoes on the beach?! And does anyone else notice that she is so lightweight she doesn't even leave footprints?
    Still, the outfit is inspiring.

    This image from magazine stuck in my mind, browsing the internets I came across the same armani outfit in different angle, on runaway, I post a link to image.

    oh now I see someone posted a link to a whole show above, sorry for repeating.
