After Tuesday’s outfit post, you probably don’t need me to hear me further articulate how much I love the fashion miracle that is the high-waisted short. Simultaneously casual, effortless and muffin-top preventative, every lady should have a pair to call her own.
Adopting this trend can feel awkward at first, but believe me, you can totally rock it. Do you want to dress for style, to accentuate your hips or to lengthen your legs? All of the above? Me too. Here’s four more takes on how I’m wearing this trend, styled for day, night and day-to-night.
*Shop these looks:
- Chic: Topshop lace shorts, Ann Taylor pumps (SO MAJ! They’re on sale!), Jessica Simpson hat, Michael Kors bag, jcp necklace
- Boho: Nelly.com shorts (sold out, similar), By Malene Birger blouse, Rebecca Minkoff mini M.A.C. and Nella wedges
- Trendy: Topshop lilac hotpants, Aritzia blouse, Fergie shoes, Kate Spade earrings, Marc by Marc Jacobs neon clutch
- Bold: Topshop shorts & neon moto jacket, Bqueen crop top, MyHotShoes lace-up pumps, F21 mini satchel, Bauble Bar ring
Will you be wearing high-waist shorts this summer? Which look is your favorite? Remember, if all else fails, just casually tuck in a blouse, add a skinny belt and step into some pumps. You’re a knockout, girlfriend.

I can’t get enough of high waisted ANYTHING, including shorts. High waists are just more flattering and more comfortable. I’m really loving the boho and bold looks you put together! Cute!
