Shorts are a summer staple that we women have been tastefully donning for a long time now. Years later, these beauties are still in but the rules of the game have changed; now, it’s all about pulling off these sultry pieces in elegance and poise. Granted, shorts may come off as sloppy and unrefined, but we’ve come to find that at the end of the day, it’s all about the styling.

Celebrities and models alike have proven time and time again that with the right styling tips, one can do wonders, even with the simplest of clothes. So if you’re still trying to figure out ways to wear shorts this summer without looking like you’ve just come out of bed, then rest assured, our little styling tips will surely put an end to your worries.

1-    Since shorts are somewhat flirty, always balance them out with an oversized logo tee to create a nonchalant-meets-rock look.

2-    What’s better than denim shorts? Classy tailored shorts that you can easily wear to work with a matching blazer. Pantsuit? As if!

3-    For an ultra-flattering figure, go for some high-waisted shorts that highlight your silhouette all-too perfectly. For an added effect, pair them with a nice button down shirt and some fancy slides.

4-    Don’t forget about long shorts if you’re not a big fan of ultra-short ones. Thrown on a maxi kimono over them and you’re golden!

5-    Make it seem like you’ve made a huge effort by accessorizing well. Meaning, pick your belt wisely and match it to a loose top for more glam.
