In summer, the shorts become a must-have. They free the legs, ensure comfort, and allow you to create stylish and breathable looks. But how to wear them intentionally, without tipping into sloppy? Here are our best tips.
1. Choose the right material
In summer, lightness is key:
Opt for cotton shorts, lightweight canvas or blended linen
Avoid thick or synthetic materials that trap heat
Favor models with a loose fit and an elastic waistband for more comfort
Pastels are perfect for a fresh and fashionable vibe
If you prefer dark colors (black, khaki, grey), choose a thin material to keep the lightness
3. Pair with light tops
Basic t-shirts: timeless
Tank tops: for very hot days
Short or oversized patterned shirts: guaranteed summer vibes
Crop tops or bralettes: for feminine and sporty looks
4. Complete with the right shoes
Lightweight or canvas sneakers
Slides or sporty sandals for a chill outfit
Espadrilles or low-top sneakers for a more stylish touch
5. Don’t neglect accessories
Cap, bucket hat, sunglasses, small bag… summer is the perfect time to play with details.
6. For summer evenings
Add a flowy shirt or a light jacket to elevate your look without getting too hot.
Conclusion
Knowing how to wear shorts well in summer is above all about wearing them with lightness and confidence. Well matched, they become a style piece in their own right. And for those wondering more specifically how to wear shorts for women, the essentials remain the same: finding the right balance between comfort, freshness, and personality.
