Women’s shorts outfit ideas
The easiest way to style shorts is to invest in matching sets that you can mix and match. Whether that’s a 2 piece blazer and shorts set or 3 piece blazer, top and shorts coordinating set.
1. Trendsetter women’s blazer shorts outfit idea
Style your shorts with a coordinating blazer and bralette for an on trend look. Shoe wise, style them with everything from flats to pumps to sky high platforms.
2. Parisian Chic
A stripe t-shirt is a timeless wardrobe essential and gives off nautical French vibes. For the most elegant way to wear this outfit, look for tailored shorts and more fitted t-shirt styles. Like this Versace stripe t-shirt which is on sale.
3. Coordinated shorts outfit idea | Barbiecore
A matching top and shorts set is another easy way to create coordinated womens shorts outfits. I love the pearl button details on this shorts set which I tied into the pearl details of the hat.
4. Chic women’s shorts outfit idea
Style a matching blazer and shorts set with a simple black camisole top or bodysuit and trending high heel mules. Add a belt of your choice if you want to add a designer element or keep it simple for a more quiet luxury aesthetic.
5. Coordinated summer style
A coordinating strapless crop top and high waisted shorts outfit is perfect for Summer and avoids strap tan lines. This set has pockets large enough for your phone and comes with the belt. Which means completely effortless dressing.
6. Add color to an all white shorts outfit
Keep your blazer and white shorts set on repeat by switching out the top depending on where you’re going and the season. A print or bright color top adds interest to an otherwise monochromatic women’s white shorts outfit.
7. Sexy shorts outfit
Make it a little sexier by forgoing a top and just buttoning up the blazer. Use double sided fashion tape if you’re worried about the blazer moving.
8. Bodysuit and white shorts outfit idea
A simple women’s shorts outfit for everyday. Style them with a bodysuit for a casual white shorts outfit. I tend to prefer bodysuits that are a bit different like this one shoulder style to elevate the look and to add interest.
9. Swimsuit and black shorts outfit
Throwing shorts over a swimsuit works as both a coverup or black shorts outfit for Summer. To make this look work for everyday rather than just the pool, look for a one piece swimsuit that can also double up as a bodysuit.
10. Dressy black shorts outfit
A cute black shirt, strappy high heel sandals and structured top handle back are an easy way to elevate a black shorts outfit and to take the look from day to night. Look for black shorts in more luxe materials that are more structured to make this look work the best.
11. Smart casual shorts outfit
Elevate a simple pair of denim jean shorts with a tank top and blazer. I love bouclé blazers for adding a more classic, luxe touch.
12. Bike shorts outfit
Women’s bike shorts were once just for the gym, now they’re a part of mainstream fashion and everyday athleisure wear. If they’re a little too fitted for you, add a button down white shirt so it looks less like you’re headed to work out and more street style and ready for a shopping spree or everyday.
13. Logomania white shorts outfit
If your styles more logomania than quiet luxury style your women’s shorts with a designer t-shirt and designer slides for Spring and Summer. I prefer more tailored shorts for this look and for practicality I tend to always go for ones with pockets.
14. Double denim
Denim shorts + denim top = majorly on trend double denim shorts outfit idea. For the most fashionable look this season make sure the washes are an exact match and style with pumps (yes! they’re back in style in a major way). Yes these look like a denim skirt but are actually a skort.
If you prefer skirts to shorts, here’s lots of skirt outfit ideas to get the most wear out of yours.
