A Love Letter to My Culottes

To my lovely Culottes,

No one ever gives culottes enough credit. Though we haven’t been together long, I grown so close to you. It is almost like you are apart of me.

Regardless of how I am feeling that day, dressy or casual, you are always there for me, ensuring that I do not leave the house looking like a total mess.

One of the best parts about you is that you never make me feel uncomfortable. Your elastic waist allows me to eat as much as I want for lunch without worrying if you will look any different.

Let us not forget about how you flatter me. Your loose fitting fabric perfectly disguises the size of my legs. Do I have a thigh gap or do my legs chaff every time I go on a long run? The world will never know all thanks to you.

Most items in my closet can go neglected for weeks even months without me giving them a second look, but not you. You are different. Somehow I never get tired of you.

Your look is timeless. You look lovely with a pair of heels or with a pair of sneakers. Pulling this off is not easy, and yet, you do it better than any clothing I own.

So here is to you culottes: thank you for being a comfortable and flattering alternative to dress pants, thank you for making it possible to wear you to work an still feel like I am wearing my pajamas, thank you for being orange, and finally, thank you for making me look just as fabulous as I feel.

Yours Truly,

Anneke
