1 Item, 3 Ways: Dress Shorts
Welcome to what might be a series of 1 Item, 3 Ways posts featuring everyone’s favorite summer essential: shorts. I say this simply because I think the last 1 Item, 3 Ways I did was denim shorts. I thought I would keep it rolling with another pair of shorts I’ve found myself wearing a lot lately: Dress Shorts. First off, I use the term dress shorts fairly loosely since it can mean a few different things depending on the material and even occasion. I personally became fond of these types of shorts late in spring when I was shopping for items to wear on my staycation. I fell in love with a Bermuda-ish length pair with chain-link accents and shortly realized, as I usually do, that I already had another similar pair in my closet.
What I love about these shorts is their versatility. I can wear them dressed up out to dinner, to look put together at the office, or just as part of a really cute summer outfit, and not completely sweat my butt off. They look good and with so many different materials, interpretations, lengths, and fits, you just can’t go wrong. Here are my 3 go-to ways of wearing “dress” shorts.
Camisole + Blazer + Quilted Slides
A simple day at the office look
Crop Top + Minimal Sandals + Chain Link Necklace
A hint of sexiness for happy hour
Button Up + Sneakers + Necklaces
A combination of casual and chic
