The Casual Evening Option

Dressy Shorts

Summer is just the time to be overly busy in your social life. It seems that every weekend there is a party of some sort and it’s important to have plenty of evening options in your wardrobe. Just because we are getting all dolled up doesn’t mean we can’t stay a little casual, clearly not recommended for a black tie event, but for just another summer Saturday night out, it will do just fine.

Dressy Shorts are the casual evening option. The shorts can have sequins, ruffles, metallics, and very unique designs. Paired with a fun top, belt and a cool cardigan, you have yourself a look that could take on the night. The more unique your options are, the dressier the look becomes. Wearing just a plain dress short with a plain blouse is boring, but add sequins to the short, a ruffle to the shirt and an animal print cardigan and you’ll look like a rock star. Boyfriend blazers could even take the place of the cardigan to really feel like your rockin’. Let’s not forget about the accessories, every tee shirt and pearls girl knows never to skimp on the accessories. For this particular casual look I would go with a chunky necklace matched with plenty of bangles, and an oversized ring. The heels should be high and you could even throw on some sheer tights to dress it up even more. This is a great casual look that will be cute and cozy.
