Shorts for women: Which style is right for you?

There’s nothing better than that first day of summer when you finally get to slip on your favorite pair of shorts! Whether at the park or in your own backyard, the first day of shorts-weather is a breath of fresh air – not only for you, but for your legs too! But what kind of shorts are right for which occasion? The various kinds of women’s shorts, in denim, Jersey, cotton or linen, aren’t always compatible with every occasion. Here’s a brief overview that’ll help you choose the right style. Check out the 6 styles that made it to our short(s) list this summer!

Denim shorts:

This style complements long, thin legs. They can show off your tan in summer and go well with a pair of black stockings in winter. Remember, denim shorts are for leisure time ONLY, e.g. a picnic in the park, downtown stroll, meeting with friends or a visit to your favorite café.

Lace shorts:

These shorts are usually made either entirely of lace and have a lining or the front is decorated with lace and the rest is made of cotton. This style is perfect for a lunch date or trip to the museum, not to mention a fun choice for grabbing a drink after work. Despite lace’s refined reputation, this style isn’t appropriate for concerts, plays or trips to the opera.

Jersey shorts:

These shorts were made for the sporty look and an ideal choice for any kind of physical activity. Perfect opportunities for sporting your Jersey shorts include: bike trips, playing badminton in the park, hanging out by the river with friends or going for a walk through the countryside.

Leather shorts:

Whether black or brown, patent leather or silky suede, it doesn’t get more luxurious than this! You can wear these shorts with or without pantyhose, making these eye-catchers suitable even for evening events (in which case, it’s best to opt for pantyhose). You should keep the rest of your ensemble sophisticated and elegant. Brown leather shorts are also perfect for achieving a natural look; simply combine them with similar colors and organic materials and you’re ready to go!

Silk shorts:

Whether short or knee-length, silk shorts for women look fabulous in solid, pastel colors as well as floral or other patterns. Feel free to combine them with a jacket or summery bouclé jacket. Silk shorts are a stylish, elegant companion at any event – weddings included!

Chino shorts:

Just like their long-legged counterparts, Chino shorts go with a variety of styles. They’re especially perfect for vacations or when giving in to Wanderlust. For a great daytime look, simply pair them with a t-shirt, polo shirt or tank top. You can also wear them in navy or any other understated color to the next casual party amongst friends.

Don’t be shy, now’s the time to show a little leg with your favorite kind of shorts for women! A tip from us: calf massages, cooling lotions, and peelings will help keep your legs looking lovely and firm!

In denim, Jersey, cotton or leather, shorts for women are the most beautiful part of summer!
