16 Photos Of Short Girls Wearing Culottes

Has there ever been a trend that you thought was really cool, but for whatever reason, decided you couldn't pull it off? I'm on the shorter side and had always dodged culottes, but these photos of short girls wearing culottes and looking confident and beautiful have officially convinced me otherwise. If you've been avoiding culottes because you think you're not tall enough, it's time to think again!

In case you missed it, culottes have had a total revival in 2016. Solange Knowles was spotted totally slaying in a pair of glossy plum culottes, fashion goddess Olivia Palermo has been known to rock a patterned pair, and Alicia Vikander wore a deep magenta pair at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival that gave me #culottegoals.

According to Refinery29, the secret to purchasing the perfect pair of culottes is finding one that hits right above your ankle. Of course, you should ultimately rock the pair that makes you feel the best, whether that means a pair that hits just below the knee or skims past your ankles. You do you, girl!
