How To Choose Capris

Hello, my name is Anita Feron-Clark http://feronclarkstyle.com/. I work freelance as an image consultant in association with Colour Me Beautiful http://www.colourmebeautiful.co.uk/ and today we're going to talk about famous trousers. A Capri trouser or pant is sometimes called a cigarette pant as well.

The styling is basically a tapered leg that finishes just above the ankle bone so that's what constitutes a Capri trouser. Women who are tall, or short, or of average height can all wear Capri trousers. What you just have to be careful of is the length of your torso and the length of your legs.

If you're very long in the body and you've got short legs, avoid Capri pants because they will make your legs look shorter and distort your body shape. If you do want to wear Capri trousers, which look really really good on, think about wearing them with a ballerina pump or a kitten heel or a peep toe shoe, because a peep toe shoe has an opening in the front which elongates your leg and gives you a really nice line. Generally, because a Capri trouser is so fitted, it looks good with something a bit more fluid and deconstructed on the top half.

So, think about a baggy sweater or a baggy blouse or something a bit more fluid with a bit of volume so you kind of counteract the slimness of the silhouette on your bottom half with a fuller torso. Generally with a Capri trouser, you could wear anything on your top half, you could wear a fitted garment or something a little more voluminous and you can choose what you wear depending on the occasion. However, one rule to follow is don't wear anything too long with a Capri pant like a long cardigan or a long tunic top because it distorts the line of the slim leg that you've got with the Capri trouser. .
