While walking through campus, sitting in my summer classes and being out really anywhere in Norman, I have noticed a few key summer trends. One of the hottest trends I have noticed lately is detailed shorts. Many women are using their shorts as a statement piece this year.
This week’s Fashionista rocked her detailed shorts, and I just had to share! Now I am not talking about just printed shorts but the added details that really stand out. The shorts my Fashionista is wearing are so cute. With the printed pineapples and the added ruffle, these shorts are perfect for summer.
Ruffles are a trend that I have seen not only on shorts this summer. They add a feminine detail to any outfit and can really make an outfit fun and flirty. This Fashionista worked her detailed shorts perfectly with a solid, open back, chiffon tank top, brown wedges and a simple necklace.
The best part of ruffled shorts is that you can dress them up or down and they are practically fit for every occasion. Wear them like my Fashionista did and you are ready to go shopping, go out with the girls or on a date. Change out the wedges for sandals and this outfit is ready for your summer job.
How To:Â This outfit is so easy to imitate and the pieces are easy to find this summer. First make sure to purchase the perfect pair of shorts. For a bold print look at these Forever 21 shorts. I recently purchases a pair from Lauren Conrad with scalloped edges that I am obsessed with. Once you have found the perfect shorts, make sure to pair it with pieces that do not compete. I love crop tops with these shorts because they do not cover much of the shorts. H&M has a crop top section on their website, but this ivory top with lace is my favorite. After you’ve found those two pieces, add your favorite pair of neutral wedges or sandals, a simple piece of jewelry and you are set for almost any occassion!
