a-listed edit: how to style long shorts

how to style bike shortsIt’s no secret that long shorts are the trend of the summer, but styling them can be tricky, especially if you’re on the petite side like me. I have been wearing more classic bike shorts (think: the black stretchy shorts of our childhood) for the last year with oversized shirting or crop tops and blazers. What I didn’t see coming was the denim and suiting iterations that are seemingly everywhere this season. It actually took me a few failed internet shopping attempts to find this perfect denim pair by Levi’s, so I wanted to share a round up of my favorite shorts and styling inspiration I found in my shopping frenzy. Hopefully you’ll find some new ladies to follow and the perfect outfit combination to try this trend.

The Outfit Maker: Oversized Blazer

I’m obsessed with both of these girls—Leonie Hanne and Tiffany Hsu—and love the ease of tossing on a blazer with your favorite pair of long shorts. Instant polish, found.

The Outfit Maker: A Fancy Top

Lots of you may already follow Marie Von Behrens, but you may not be onto Rikke Krefting just yet. I love how both of them fancied up their long shorts with extra special tops. Whether you go for a backless top or a sparkly option, you really can’t go wrong with this combo.

The Outfit Maker: Go Tone on Tone
