Summer’s caught us all by surprise – it came in quickly and with a bang. For a lot of us, though, it’s a relief from the winters where we had to wear layers upon layers of clothes just to keep our bodies warm. And with the onset of summer, it’s much easier to follow the trendiest of clothes which are in vogue. Speaking of fashion, capris are back with a bang!

Mostly mid-calf in length, capris are an excellent wear for summers. Some variants of capris end a little below the knees and some, a few inches above the calves. These pants are an excellent option especially for those who aren’t comfortable wearing shorts and those who find wearing jeans too tedious; not to mention, how warm jeans can make you feel in the summers.

2015 is going to be THE year of capris. They made the biggest impacts at various international fashion slows, including Paris, London, NYC and Milan. And the best part is that these pants are extremely versatile. It doesn’t matter if you want to look drop dead gorgeous at a party or like the girl next door on your average summer – the correct capri will provide you with the exact look you want.

The market is going to be flooded with capris of different lengths, fabrics, colours, prints and silhouettes. They are going to be skinny capris as well as baggy ones. All you have to do is choose the one that matches your style quotient and your body the best.For example, monotone capris in dull shades will give you a classy look and will be best suited to wear to the office when paired with a white or an off-white blouse.

Your summer wardrobe styles should be effortlessly chic, which is why buying capris in bright colours and bold prints would be the best bet for you. Lightweight fabrics especially give you great comfort as well as a certain sense of fluidity to your look. Denim capris are best for casual appearances, but if you want to spice things up a bit, we suggest you wear them with high heels. You will get a glamorous look instantaneously! Lace blouses or tops will seamlessly blend with your capris.

However, there are certain basics you have to keep in mind while buying a capri and these basics apply to almost every piece out there. Avoid buying ones that end at the widest part of your calves, have wide legs and those with elastic waists. The elastic is going to become extremely uncomfortable during the hot summers, which is why it’s best to opt for capris that can be buttoned up. And of course, always buy breathable fabrics, most preferably cotton or synthetic blends of cotton. Let your skin breathe this summer!
