If, like me, you'll be spending the majority of the summer in the city, you're probably also wondering how your wardrobe is going to cope. Staying in London through the hottest months means balancing the desire to look put-together with the high temperatures we typically face in holiday in mainland Europe. Deciding what to wear day to day feels a little more complicated than usual, so I’ve been on the lookout for pieces that are both warm-weather-ready and city-chic enough to see me through. In the white capri trousers trend, I've found both.
A look that's taking off across the continent, but especially in Paris where I've seen countless fashion people documenting their outfits, white capris are brighter and fresher than their black counterparts, and less likely to overheat when the sun is beating down, making them ideal for the height of summer. Cut at or just below the knee, their modest silhouette offers an elegant and comfortable alternative to shorts, making them ideal for everyday dressing.
They're also far easier to style than you might think. The clean white hue slots effortlessly into a wardrobe of neutrals and acts as a perfect base for bolder summer colour trends, too. When it comes to footwear, I find white capris pair beautifully with ballet flats, flip-flops or sleek kitten heels for a smarter finish.
Spend even a single day in our London office and you’re bound to spot at least oneBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing editor in a pair of capris. Styled with floaty blouses, boxy vintage tees or neat co-ords, these once-divisive trousers have become a team favourite. So I don't suspect it will be long until our wardrobes are awash with the summery update.
