How to wear high waisted shorts
Summer
is already underway, and this time round, high waisted shorts have found
themselves at the forefront of street style. But there’s more to a pair of
shorts than just letting your legs see a little sun. They’re super versatile,
and by teaming them with a few basic items, you can create a multitude of
wonderful looks.
Try them with plimsolls
If
you’re feeling a little ‘on show’ in your shorts, you can always dress them
down with a pair of ballet shoes and a shirt dress for that trendy boho-chic
look.
Try them with wedges
If
you’re looking for something a little slicker, you could try them with some
wedges and a vest top. Let your hair down for this one too. Going full Valley
Girl by teaming high waisted shorts with a pair of high, chunky wedges is sure
to turn a few heads. This look is simple,
sexy and ultra-glamorous – a perfect way to dress for a night out, without
feeling overdone. Shoes with a high heel often make your legs appear longer
too, so go for it.
Try them with flip-flops
For
that ultimate, unfailing summer look, wear your shorts with a pair of
flip-flops. As with all types of shorts, it’s often up to the footwear to
dictate the style and the setting you’re going for. As long as the sun’s out,
flip-flops and shorts will always look great – whether you’re shopping in town,
basking on the beach or jumping about at a music festival.
Remember, you don’t have to go bare!
Yes,
they’re shorts and they are designed to show off your legs. But if you don’t
want to go bare, you don’t have to. If you feel a little exposed with your legs
out, try teaming your shorts with a pair of black tights. If you’re worried
about your figure, tights will also help to pull everything in a little. And as
ever, you can always build yourself up to bare legs by gradually decreasing the
denier of your tights.
Tuck them over
There’s
a whole host of other clothes you can wear
high waisted shorts with. Just remember the golden rule – keep it simple.
Classic colours work best and never risk going out of fashion. Show off your
new shorts, as well as your figure, by tucking them over a flowing white silk
shirt, a vest top or even a bathing suit.
