Matching sets are in right now and a summer shorts suit is one way to beat the heat and look chic. If you are so lucky to be in the warmer Northern hemisphere right now, this one is for you.
As it is rather a grey and chilly day here today, I am definitely typing this one as a bit of a heads up to those of you in the Northern Hemisphere. Hey there! These photos were taken a couple of weeks back, which was still mid-winter but it was nice and warm. Unlike today! I just wish I could be wearing a cute shorts suit today! Instead, I am layered up nice and cosy and avoiding what will definitely be a stormy afternoon. So, if it is warm where you are, enjoy it for me.
THE CHIC SUMMER SHORTS SUIT
Let’s talk about the summer shorts suit. Not something I feel a few years back I would have been so keen on! Now though, I am loving the combination of a chic pair of shorts (generally high waisted) and a clean, minimal strappy sandal. Add a blazer to match or a nice light knit or chic blouse and you have a chic look for heading out or if you are lucky enough, heading into the office. Most workplaces are probably not caught up on the chic-ness of a short suit just yet but I feel they will get there.
Right, so what have we here? I am wearing a pair of shorts from Everlane, which are on sale right now. The blazer, which I talked about last week, can also be seen styled back here for reference. These shorts? They are down to $41 USD and also come in black. I opted for dusty pink because though I would probably wear black shorts, I didn’t need yet another black blazer. And I wanted a matching set. The fabric is a drapey, comfortable lyocell, which can be machine washed.
If not a strappy heel, I would pair these with a white sneaker, block-heeled mule, or a simple slide.
Tell me below if you would wear a shorts suit? I am off to make a cup of tea before I buckle down to draft another blog post for this coming week. xx
