Spring Summer Fashion Formula #9: Casual Cool in Shorts
May 28th, 2009
Temperatures may be rising, but you can keep your cool in a pair of casual shorts. But casual shorts don’t have to look sloppy, if you pair them with the right elements. Here’s how to look pulled together, even when you’re wearing a simple top and casual shorts:
1. Start with a pair of knee length shorts and a cute sleeveless or short sleeved top. We’re digging the bright yellow color juxtaposed against the clean white.
2. Add a lightweight layering sweater - for those cool mornings or times when you’re indoors with extra-strong AC.
3. Finish off the outfit with a brightly colored tote and a pair of statement sandals. Don’t you love how the seafoam color on the tote makes that bright yellow tunic even more radiant (and vice versa)?

I love the color combination of yellow and seafoam – perfect for summer!

I’m not much of a shorts gal, preferring cropped cargos and skirts, but I like pairing my bermudas with cowboy boots for a southwestern look. A little more thematic than casual, but still fun!

I’m a huge fan of seafoam – especially paired with yellow or cobalt blue. Glad you like it too, Diana!
Sal – definitely still fun. You’re really rocking those cowboy boots!
