How to Style Denim Shorts 5 Ways

5 ways to style your denim shorts!

This week’s edition of FIVE FRIDAY FAVORITES is brought to you by myself and a few of my blogging friends! We teamed up with each other to show you how to style denim shorts 5 different ways!  I will link to everyone’s blogs at the end of this post as well as their Instagram handles.  I wear denim shorts just about every single day in the summer.  Yes I’m in my mid 30’s, but that doesn’t matter.  This pair that I’m about to share provides plenty of coverage so you don’t have to worry about feeling like you’re showing too much.

LOOK 1 – EDGY

It’s that time of year where it’s still kind of chilly in the mornings and at night which means you can throw on your fave moto jacket with denim shorts.  I paired mine with some casual Vans and a little white tee.  This outfit would be a great little concert look!

LOOK 2 – PREPPY

You likely have one of these white button ups in your closet and if you’re like me you only think about wearing it to a business interview.  WRONG.  This one is from J Crew Factory a few years ago and it’s a little more relaxed, but still gives a polished look.  I love a little front tuck (as depicted by most of these pics) haha!  The head wrap is a fun Amazon find (10 colors for $12)!

LOOK 3 – “MOMCHELLA”

Let’s be honest I’m never going to Coachella, nor do I care to.  But I do like some of the festival looks (not the skimpy ones, c’mon), but the bohemian vibes.  This kimono is so old but I can’t bring myself to part with it.  I wear it a ton of ways (including as a swim cover up).  I linked a similar one for you below, and I should mention it’s $8 and gets great reviews!

LOOK 4 – TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME

Who doesn’t enjoy this classic summertime sport?  I mean I live in Saint Louis and I’m a Cards fan through and through.  This is 100% my go to look for a baseball game.  Denim shorts + my converse.  I may throw on a baseball hat too!  This baseball tee comes in three colors and it’s under $14!

LOOK 5 – SUMMER NIGHTS

One of my favorite things to do in the summer is sit outside on a patio or a dock on a cool summer night.  One that’s cool enough to need a little sweatshirt like this one.  Sadly mine is sold out but oddly enough there’s a men’s version so I linked that instead!

  • The men’s version of the leopard print sweatshirt is still in stock! It’s the exact same, probably just runs a bit larger.

    • YES!!! Thanks so much! I’m going to update the link now!
