This 3-piece outfit is consistently fashionable—every person in the New York fashion scene I know dons it.
Just like my initial thoughts on flip-flops, I was doubtful about capris for many years—until I decided to try a pair last spring. They quickly became one of my go-to items. I found myself putting them on for errands and long walks when I wanted a polished look that still offered flexibility. They are comfortable and effortless, yet somehow still present a put-together appearance. If you're looking to buy a pair for the first time, here's what I've discovered: For shorter individuals, capris that fit snugly and hit just below the knee generally look the best. If you're taller, aim for a pair that flares slightly and falls lower on the calf.
When considering how to style them, I frequently thought of two other spring essentials: trench coats and kitten-heel sandals. This combination offers a stylish and simple outfit formula that always works. I've been pairing mine with the Rue Sophie Provenance Jacket and Stuart Weitzman Minimalist 50 Sandals or the Studio Amelia Greta Mules.
