I’m considering these but DD says no!
What do you think?

Lovely.

They are gorgeous! The pleats are potentially unflattering but if they suit you go for it OP.

Much better than I was expecting from the title. Its a Yes from me.

This is about as divided as Brexit 🤣

After a closer inspection I agree that they’re not pink. But they’re not red either! ‘Baked Cherry’ apparently.

In my head I’m going to swan about looking sophisticated and chic but irl I’ll probably look like a confused superhero with the cape in the wrong place.

On House of Fraser's website they're more obviously pink so I'd say they're quite pink. I think they're great. :)

I'd call that colour raspberry.

Get them OP and report back. :)

So culottes have come round again. Time to dig in the wardrobe and drag out the last pair - did I wear them more than once? Prob not.

CoatTails · 21/02/2019 13:14

Have ordered 🤦‍♀️

Gorgeous colour by those picture. You'll need to share a pic when they arrive.

I'm 5'2" and I have navy cord culottes that I love. Although because they are for winter I then had to get knee high socks to match Grin.

Count Where did you get the knee high socks? I got a couple of pairs of Falke merino ones but they only had them in boring colours (black and that boring medium grey). I fancy colour. And pattern!

ImYourWomanJonSnow Sock Shop! I did feel a bit like it was the 80s again Grin. enbrogue talks about socks a lot and has some gorgeous links but £££.

banivani · 25/02/2019 15:37

Have they arrived? I'd love an update :)

CoatTails · 25/02/2019 22:59

They have and I love them! 😍

They look ridiculous enough on the model.

banivani · 26/02/2019 06:21

Yay Coattails I’m so pleased! I might have sprung for them myself if the 16 wasn’t sold out!
