In search for summer pants

Filed in archive Fashion and Style on June 19, 2006

This summer I decided to get outside my usual summer-pant style, which is usually linen or denim capris. Yes, I know I've told you that you can wear a dress to every occasion, but there's time when a girl needs pants.

So, without further ado, here are my top three pants for this summer:

	Mara Hoffman Cropped Sweatpants are made of cotton, some polyester and some spandex, so they would be very easy to wear. The unusual asymmetric bottom hem adds to the pant appeal. I like them in black, because the golden detail is very visible this way. This pants would be wonderful with a small golden strapless top and a pair of nice sandals for a casual night out. Don't forget, metallics are in!
	Bebe Cuffed Trouser Short because shorts are in this season, and these present a nice compromise between the too short ones and the knee-length ones. Dressy and chic, perfect to wear with a white blouse and some massive jewelry.
	Anthropologie hide-and-seek Cargos come last but not least, for those times you just want to be laid back, sit on the grass and enjoy a summer night concert in the park. With a tank top and flip flops you won't mind if you get a bit dirty.
