4 Fresh Ways to Wear the ’00s Capri Pant

Pedal pushers are back

We’ve seen many reemerging trends so far this season (think ballet flats and anything Y2K) but it’s pedal pushers that we’re most surprised to see back into our wardrobes.

These slim-fitting pants come just below the knee and are often found in a range of fabrics like denim, cotton and soft knits. From work wear to workout gear, this cropped style is versatile enough to style for every occasion.

Take inspo from stylish celebs like Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lawrence, or take a peek at the runways to see how you could wear the trend.

To The Office

The calf-hugging capri is attempting to make its way back into our work wear. Just as you would any other pant, add an oversized shirt and stylishly half tuck it in.

Lean towards a pair of flats to keep you comfortable when you’re on your feet, and a slouchy bag to store your commuting necessities.

On The Weekend

For off duty days, style your denim capris like you would any full-length jean. Double denim is a popular trend for autumn, so try adding a matching jacket in a different colour.

For any evening plans, dress up with statement heels and understated silver jewellery.

To The Gym

Arguably the easiest way to style capri pants is in the form of leggings. The 3/4 length is a great option whether you’re heading to yoga or for a morning walk.

Keep it loose and comfy by wearing a slouchy tee over your sports bra and accessorise with a cap and retro sneakers.

Lounging Around

Grab your go-to white T-shirt and style it up with a pair of knit capris for your lazy weekend fit. Perfect for cosying up on the couch, you can throw an oversized cardi over your shoulders and slip your feet into fluffy slides when the weather is keeping you inside.
