Who says capris aren’t for the red carpet? Actor Amanda Seyfried proves they are office-to-evening ready by pairing hers with a structured grey plaid blazer

How to style it right:

Capris offer more coverage than shorts while feeling lighter and more stylish than full-length trousers. The key to pulling them off lies in the footwear. To avoid making your legs look shorter, pair them with a pointed-toe heel, a sleek slingback, or a minimalist sandal. Whether you go for a sporty version or a tailored fabric, keep the proportions balanced: if the pants are tight, play with oversized blazers or chunky knits on top.
