The Long & Short of It


So the weather has finally turned good and I'm finding myself wearing shorts every other day now. Shorts are everywhere this season and with more versatility than a skirt it's definitely the go-to option that guarantees style and comfort. I love how far the humble pair of shorts have come and you can dress accordingly for work/party/bbq/summer soiree- there's a pair for every occasion and they look especially cool with all the chunky platform heels and clogs that are around at the moment. If you're sporting a super short pair then match them with an oversized tee or button-up shirt to balance them out. Likewise if you're rocking a high-waisted or longer length pair you can afford to go with less on top. Theres something quite understated and cool about a crisp white pair of shorts, simple blouse, huge statement earrings and matching clutch with  some stylish heels as an alternative to the bog standard short dress and heels on a night out. Do you agree?



btw: Men's shorts are also looking decidedly more stylish this season with the slim-fitted, roll-up variety the clear winners. Husband has been enjoying the short trend too this summer in his denims and I got the needle and thread out recently and chopped off a pair of his slim fit trousers and made them into roll-ups after the clumsy boy ripped a great hole in them!
