We're loving shorts, more so - loving the nautical and military look. Summer is here and shorts just got edgier- be it graphic prints, animal prints, floral, checks, polka dots, stripe, lace or leather -own one to be on this season shorts band wagon - two or more to alter your look and 'all' if you love them just like I do!
Alexa Chung - voted world most stylish woman by Vogue magazine last year, has this look nailed at every opportunity; casually paired with boyfriends t-shirt or with a feminine blouse or shirt for her geek-chic trademark look. Other celebrities such as Jessica Alba, Mischa Barton and our very own Rihanna have been spotted with this season micro shorts, whether it's just taking a coffee break, a walk in the park with kids, Night outs or red carpet...There are shorts for every occasion.
Shorts are not just for holidays, they are an every day wear. Are your legs rid of hairs and ready for summer?? I'm thinking nautical, military and floral influences.
Navy shorts is all you need to build upon for your nautical look. Pair with this seasons coveted piece -'the straw hat' - and be a FAB length away from the pack.

Rihanna's been spotting the straw hat look accessorised with pink roses, get a similar look as below...Peg shorts are suited to those with slim thighs and pert bottoms, but could make one with heavy thighs look clumsy as it separates the thigh at the point where it hugs the flesh causing it to fold ..stay clear! Go for a style with a wider hem as worn by Rihanna.
Remember this rule - Never wear an outfit that stops or hugs tightly at the widest part of your body.
