It’s no secret that everyone loves basics like a white T-shirt, a casual little black dress and denim shorts. They’re your favorite pieces because they can be dressed up or down, they go with everything and they can go in so many different style directions. Even the greatest classics, however, need to be remixed every once in a while. A few extra cool details or embellishments can take your wardrobe staples from lovable but lackluster to repurposed and refreshed.
This Fashionista’s outfit embodies the idea of elevated basics, in particular her denim shorts. Denim shorts are the first item you grab when getting dressed in the summer because they’re comfy, cool and look great with absolutely anything you pair them with. It is possible, however, to have shorts that still possess all these great qualities, but are a bit more eye-catching and trendy. This Fashionista’s shorts do just that with silver studs that make the shorts more edgy while adding a bit of shine, which is something that every pair of simple shorts needs! The high-waisted style is extremely popular right now and is great for tucking longer shirts in or for wearing with belly-baring crop tops. The light wash denim is classic and is what keeps these shorts basic enough to still go with the rest of your wardrobe. The studs and high waist make these denim shorts unique and take them from good to great. The cotton tank top is also revamped with a fun and colorful tie-dye print that would add a little hippie flair to any look. The double strap sandals, aviator sunglasses, braided bracelets and dainty necklaces add to the bohemian vibe and complete this perfect summertime outfit.
