I’ll admit I have a complicated relationship with shorts. I’m on the shorter side at 5’2″, so there are times when I’m a huge fan. The more of my legs I can show, the more I can pull off the illusion that they’re long. When I get dressed, however, I find myself almost never reaching for a pair of shorts. This summer, I have gotten bored with just wearing dresses and skirts on repeat and decided that it was time to step it up when it comes to my summer outfit styling by throwing a few shorts outfits into the mix. I headed to Instagram and TikTok to hunt for styling inspiration and found six outfits incorporating shorts that are so elevated and chic that I’m actually dying for the opportunity to re-create them. From the perfect way to style shorts for an event to a casual way to wear shorts on the weekends, these six looks check all my boxes.
