Sassy Summer Shorts

Maybe it’s the sunshine, maybe it’s the sporty atmosphere at the moment, or maybe it is because I am really only 10 years old at heart, but I just love nothing more than summer days spent in shorts.

Shorts are as cool as a skirt, but much more flexible and just as chic. Whether building a sand-castle, riding your bike, or chairing a board meeting; shorts are summer fashion set free. So here are my top three ways to wear shorts in any eventuality.

Find a classic pair of shorts which can be dressed up or down. I love these paisley print chino shorts from J Crew. Sassy and summery, they are so on trend.

For a chilled, daytime look, team these with throw-on flats, a simple vest and a denim shirt for cover-up.

Want to put these shorts to work? A gorgeous navy blazer will smarten them up for the office. Wear with an ultra crisp white blouse and some tan flats for a grown-up take on this shorty look.

And for a glam evening get-up wear these shorts with some stunning courts and add some sparkle on top.

Short, sweet and super stylish!
