·         If you are going for work, then team up the culottes with a white buttoned shirt and for the footwear, choose a pair of pumps.
·         Remember, culottes work the best with high heel shoes. So you can wear the combination of two, whenever you feel you need to get an extra something to style up the look.
·         If you are in a mood to experiment, wear a medium fitted dress with culottes.
·         Since culottes are a bit of loose pants, it might give you an appearance of shorter legs making you look short. So, in order to manage this height issue, go monochromatic while wearing culottes, that will make you look taller and slimmer definitely.
