And once you see the below looks, you'll realize that culottes are actually incredibly versatile (pair them with an oversize knit or a sleek crop top, for example), can be worn with just about every shoe style, from boots to sneakers to ankle-strap heels, and are far less intimidating to wear than you may initially think.
