Pinstripe culottes at Toast

Astrid

I just saw these navy pinstripe culottes at Toast. If you watch the video you see how they look in movement - awesome. I want them!

Have you seen a pair you like? Are you even searching for one?

They are beautiful. I wish she'd turn around though!

I don't know if I can wear culottes easily (too much junk in the trunk). I do like these though: (from http://www.facebook.com/photo......38;theater)

The pinstripe is sweet, Astrid. I'm not completely sure about the waistband and if they would look slightly too bulky irl or exactly right. On me, they would also be shorter than knee-length and I really want a pair that is long enough.

I'm definitely keeping an eye open for culottes:-)

Fruitful, you're right - she should turn around! Love the ones you linked to, they resemble the ones I already have. I got a similar (old) pattern on Ebay some time ago, it's the one in the picture below. Now I just need fabric and some time! Any ideas about what color I should go for?

Inge, they might be too bulky that's true. Maybe if the fabric isn't flowy enough? I understand wanting a pair that is long enough, I wouldn't want shorter ones either. I'm looking too, but so far I haven't seen anything. Seems like this trend hasn't arrived yet.

Those look pretty cute Astrid! I am definitely on the lookout for a pair, preferably something silky, colorful, and just below the knee. Haven't seen much, though.

I like the pinstriped culottes, and the ones fruitful posted.

Does the model in the video look annoyed, as if she's saying, "Oh fine, one more outfit. But take the video quickly so I can go home!" It's fine not to smile, but she was almost scowling. Or am I just projecting the unusually bad mood I've been in lately onto her?

Astrid, I already love the russet ones you wear (velvet/cord? Passed down from your mother?)

How about a deep forest green for your pattern?

Sounds good Aida! Seems like there aren't too many available no matter where you are...

Chrizzle, she really does look annoyed! I wasn't looking at her face before, but you're right.

Fruitful, they are some poly/rayon/cotton blend with some sheen to it. And yes, they were my mother's! I helped her purging when she got new furniture and found them just at the time when Angie first posted about them. She didn't want them anymore, so...Forrest green sounds lovely!
