Wardrobe Update:
The Wear-Anywhere Shorts
Have you found your perfect pair of shorts yet? The ones that will carry you stylishly through the summer months, moving seamlessly between your day and night, and city and vacation wardrobes? A tailored pair in a crisp cotton or luxe silk will be the most versatile, especially if you look for a comfortably relaxed fit that hits just above the knee – anything too short will narrow your styling options.
By day, throw them over a swimsuit and layer with a breezy printed, short-sleeved shirt that you can knot or tuck depending on your mood. Add an elevated pair of sandals or flip flops and round out your look with beach-inspired accessories, from a trophy basket bag that will hold all your essentials to colourful shell or coral jewellery.
After dark, switch out your shirt for a stand-out top with an effortless air - crops, cut-outs and wrap-around details will bring sophistication and interest to your outfit – and swap your basket for a modern classic in slick leather. Style with a ‘90s-inspired pair of wedges or mules and finish with irresistibly simple, chunky jewellery in your choice of silver or gold. And don’t forget a generous spritz of your favourite perfume before you head out into the night.
