This Spring I’ve decided to give shorts a chance. For years I’ve been saying I don’t wear shorts. Unless you see me at the gym or on the boat you’ve probably never seen me in shorts. However, this spring is a little different. For starters it has been wicked hot in Charleston, and I’m constantly running around after a nineteen month old. So I have to be a little more creative with my casual wear (without losing my sense of style!)
I’ve always thought of shorts as something I had to wear for certain activities—but if you look at them as part of an outfit you’ll find they give you a chic and casual look.
The key to making shorts look great is to have fun. Stop wearing your tired old t-shirt with a boring pair of shorts! Instead make a statement in shorts!
Color is everywhere for spring. Especially shorts. I recently purchases a pair in orange and turquoise. Pair your favorite shorts with a fun top—NOT a boring ratty t-shirt!
Here are some examples from my own wardrobe to inspire you.
I currently have a SERIOUS stripes obsession. I love black and white stripes paired with any color. Why? Black and white are both neutrals which means they go with any color in the rainbow. Together, even as a pattern, they are still a neutral. |

This is a great way to pair shorts with a t-shirt or tank. Choose one that has visual interest or embellishment to give your outfit a chic and put together look. |

Even though an animal print may seem daring or wild it’s an easy piece to pair with many things. All the colors in the pattern are neutrals. So, you’ll remember from above that means its okay to pair this printed shirt with a fun color like orange. |

You can even use shorts to help you participate in your favorite trend. This tribal inspired look is easy to pull off with casual shorts and a snakeskin wedge. |
