The Power of Shorts

Their power lies in their comfort and versatility

Take another look at your summer wardrobe. You might already own a couple of basic shorts. Don’t underestimate their power; they will be your allies this season. These basics are celebrated more than ever. Their prominence has been reassured the past few seasons, and they’ve gained a whole new force.

Take them out, and they are as attractive as when you first bought them. Their variety and spiced-up styling make them look new this season.

Whether they’re denim shorts, cotton shorts, lace shorts or made from another type of lightweight fabric, there’s a style for every body type and occasion. What makes them fun is how they can all be paired up and upgraded to achieve cool summer outfits.

You’ve already worn your regular shorts the casual way, so this time make them appear sophisticated. Use high or mid heels to lengthen your silhouette and make them instantly chic. Pair them with a breezy long-sleeve blouse to counterbalance the baring of skin, and finish it with cuffs, bangles or a statement necklace that adds glam.

With Vegas’ rising temperatures, shorts are essential and can be worked to look office formal too. You can find dressier options such as jacquard, linen, crepe, silk blends, satin blends and even cotton blends that have been elegantly designed to fit the part.

You can opt for a fashionable Bermuda silhouette, which will rise just above or below the knee and be spacious enough to deliver the most proper look. Pair these elegant shorts with mid high heels and a summer blazer to assemble a chic office look. They will look incredibly glamorous and if well-chosen, they can be as flattering as A-skirts have proved to be.

Remember to make shorts first row in your summer wardrobe. Bring out a hippie, rocker or even ladylike style to them. Make your decisions based on the length, width and fabric of your shorts in order to later play with bold or classic shoes and tops. Use that order of assembly to arrange any desired look. Any style fits in Vegas; dare to play with one of the most comfortable and classic silhouettes yet.
