How to Wear Short Shorts in Unexpected Ways

With the temperature on the rise, our hemlines tend to do the same. But just how short is too short? When it comes to denim cutoffs, there is seemingly no limit. Although we can appreciate the hot pants that designers including Alexander Wang and Isabel Marant sent down the Spring Summer 2017 runways, we’ve been contemplating how to wear them IRL since first glace.

Fear not fashion friends, for we have scoured the market and are presenting you with 6 different ways to elevate your daisy dukes, without looking Coachella ready 24/7. Dare to go almost bare? Opt for the Vetement x Levi’s collaboration short pairing it with a tailored shirt and trench coat for a more professional look, though one still probably not appropriate for your summer internship. Feeling less risqué? Throw on a kimono-inspired dress over the shorts and pair with a low metallic mule for the perfect day-to-night look that will last you through Labor Day. Whatever your style, there's a way to rock short shorts this summer that feels totally fresh and unexpected — we promise.
