Now that summer is in full swing, shorts are a must in my wardrobe! I own a ton of denim shorts and last year I’ve added a couple of linen shorts, but the one I’ve always been curious about was the trendy biker shorts.
I’ve always wanted a pair but I always hesitated to get them because I was scared I couldn’t pull off an outfit with them. BUT 2020 is the year where we try new things right? Especially since staring at yourself in the mirror is my new pastime XD So when the opportunity presented itself, I went for it!
I got my biker shorts from this cute boutique called From Rachel, and guys let me tell you they are THE BEST! The moment I put these shorts on, I knew I’ll be living in them for a while. This is such a versatile piece, and definitely an essential basic. For anyone who’s hesitant to get them like I was, maybe these looks will help convince you to add this piece to your wardrobe!
1. Business Casual || Tube Top + Patterned Blazer + Sneakers
Need an outfit that can take you from the office to the gym? The biker short has got your back! If a tube top is too casual for your work, you can always throw on a button-down blouse or a basic tee instead!
2. Edgy Chill || Netted Top + Sneakers
Perfect style for going to a dance class or maybe just running an errand! Go for an edgy vibe by pairing it with fishnets, sheer tops, or strappy pieces! I promise you’ll get some compliments!
3. Brunch or Hangout || Graphic Tee + Denim Jacket + Sneakers
Now that places are starting to open up, are you meeting a friend you haven’t seen in a while? Pair a graphic tee and denim jacket together and you can’t go wrong. Comfy & stylish, what more can a girl ask for?
4. Lounging Around || Oversized Hoodie + Sneakers
I don’t know about you, but when I’m doing school work or just chilling at home, hoodies and sweats are my best friend. Since sweats are a little too hot for summer, biker shorts are the perfect substitute! Plus they dry fast if I have to work up a sweat doing chores 😛
5. Athleisure || Cropped Hoodie + Statement Sneakers
Literally you can pair any atheletic piece on top, whether it be a jacket, windbreaker, or just a sports bra and you’ll look cute! I like to pair reflective or colorful shoes in my athleisure outfits because it always makes the outfit look more fun and energetic!
6. Sexy Vibes || Lace Bustier + Structured Blazer + Strappy Heels
Heading out for a club night? Trying to impress a date? Going to a semiformal event? Yes you can dress UP a pair of biker shorts! A structured blazer always makes an outfit look more put together, and a lacy top just gives that perfect balance between romantic and sexy.
As you can see, these shorts are so versatile and can literally be incorporated into an outfit for any situation! I say it’s now definitely an essential piece in my summer wardrobe.
