It’s midsummer and the sun is hot, hot, hot. I know firsthand how easy it can be during the dog days of summer to resort to throwing on your gym shorts and worn in cut-off shirt everyday because they’re loose-fitting and it’s an outfit that is bound to keep you cool all day long. Not that there’s anything wrong with that outfit choice, but keeping an open mind here, let’s remember that there are many other ways to stay cool while still celebrating some of the finer trends of the summer.
I saw this Fashionista, and it was her boldly printed purple shorts that caught my eye. Her outfit is simple and comfortable, yet very stylish and well put together. These shorts practically mimic the feel of wearing sports shorts because they are made out of a very lightweight, comfortable material and even have an elastic waistband! Amen for cute pants with elastic waistbands…am I right? She paired these shorties with an equally lightweight black T-shirt and accessorized with an elegant watch, a simple leather wraparound bracelet and a minimalistic necklace.
How To: This summer, pair your basic tops with some bold printed shorts. Try this look for a super laid-back look and a great go-to outfit for a fun day relaxing with family and friends. Pick up a pair of purple tapestry print soft shorts and a loose-fitting black tank top and you’ve got yourself a brand new outfit that’ll keep you feeling and looking cool even during the hottest days this summer.
