I wore this periwinkle ensemble to a pool party last weekend, but thought I’d share it here anyway because it’s Monday and I’d very much like to pretend that I’m going to a pool party today…
CULOTTES: Alice and Olivia (also love the shorts version and maxi dress version) |  CROP TOP: Alice and Olivia (also love the other matching pieces: skirt here, dress here) |  SANDALS: Joie  |  BRACELET: c/o Brandy Pham

I love this color so much Mary and even if I don’t like culottes I think that this pair is beautiful
Love the pattern mix but not a fan of the culottes at all. For a pool party/ any party its the classiest outfit, for work, not so much..
Agreed, definitely not for conservative workplaces. FYI, if you’re a fan of the pattern mix but don’t like the culottes, they make the striped bottoms in a dress version and a shorts version as well which I linked to above! : )
Funnily, this is right in front of my office! Wish I had seen you! No culottes allowed unfortunately..
You look so beautiful in this fun and monochromatic outfit! Love it!
Your writing always makes me smile 🙂 Have a wonderful week!
I love the culottes!!! I saw these on Gigi Hadid and it was love at first sight. 🙂

That color is perfection! Love that crop top. I wish my Monday could be spent poolside.

Do you think culottes are appropriate for a corporate work environment? I’m a financial advisor, and all the men in my office wear suits. It’s about to be summer, however, and I can only wear skirt suits so often.
Great question! It always depends on the specific workplace. For some casual and/or creative environments, culottes absolutely work. However, if you work in a more conservative office where the men wear suits everyday, that’s a good signal that you probably have to be a bit more formal in your professional dress as well. So, these culottes may not be a great option for you, but I think you could absolutely pair this top with a high-waisted pencil skirt and a blazer!
When I saw those culottes in the Nordstrom magazine, I almost fell over from perfect-pantness. Holy ridiculous cuteness Batman. The top is adorable.
Super cute look I am loving the periwinkle theme! Both pieces are gorgeous and could totally be incorporated into a work week wardrobe!
Gorgeous print mixing! I love this look <3
Adoring this print mixing and the beautiful blue! Those sandals are also a huge summer go-to 🙂 Love the look!

Skirt is amazing, But i had a doubt about what type of accessories and bag match for this.
As you can see, I kept the accessories simple and (although you can’t see it in the pictures) I brought a simple nude clutch. : )
I love the pattern mixing, very pretty!
