Dressy shorts. A contradiction in terms, right? However, I have seen them more and more in the last few years, and I must say, I'm a convert. Previously, I always thought of shorts as casual, and I really only wore them with flip flops or Converse. However, dressy shorts worn out at night with heels can be
such a cute look! I admit, I am not a skirt wearing person for the most part, so I guess they speak to me. They are short (like a skirt) but way,
way more comfortable. And sexy! They look great with a blouse, a blazer or a loose tank top. Heels are the way to go if it's an evening out, but for a dressy lunch or day event, they are really cute with flats as well. I think they are a great option when you are not sure how dressy an event will be and you are torn between a dress and pants. Obviously, they are not appropriate for some events (a wedding is one that comes to mind!) but for dinners out, drinks with friends, or a summer party, I think they are a great choice. I'm even seeing them on the red carpet! And for those of you who aren't comfortable in shorts, just go a little longer. Knee length or almost-to-the-knee shorts are adorable with heels, and no different than a skirt - only cuter!
