Using Hosiery To Take Your Shorts Into Fall

Using Hosiery To Take Your Shorts Into Fall During summer, shorts are going to be your go-to casual staple, but what happens when the weather cools down and you’re not quite ready to put them away yet? A great pair of shorts can be turned into an edgy outfit staple for fall, and all it takes is a great pair of hosiery to pair with them. The shorts and hosiery look became popular a few years ago, and has had its own new updated iteration every fall season since. We at hosieree.com want to show you how to embrace the shorts and hosiery trend, and allow you to get more wear out of your favorite pairs!

The first thing that should be considered when pairing shorts with hosiery is the length of the short. In order for the look to work, you want that perfect mid-level length, as shorts that are cut too long will look awkward with hosiery, and those that are cut too short won’t give you the right elegant appeal. The “sweet spot” for short length when wearing with hose is around mid-thigh.

Next, you’ll want to focus on a tailored look and perfect fit. Baggy shorts make the look messy, and too tight shorts make it awkward, so choose a pair that fits just right when pairing with your hosiery. A clean and tailored short look is also preferable, and if you choose to go denim, try cuffing the short to add that extra clean detail.

When pairing with footwear, it pays to remember to keep it sleek and stylish. While sneakers are the most comfortable, they really take away from the shorts and hosiery look, and instead opting for an edgy comfortable boot can give you the same great feel but with an even better look. To make your look even more chic, choose a heeled bootie that has a little quirk factor, but try to color match your shoe with the opaque tights of your choice. If you’re opting for a chic black flat, and pairing the hosiery with solid colored shorts and accessories, you may even want to try a pair of patterned tights to bring that statement element to your style! At Hosieree.com our Jenny Fashion Tights are a great choice of pattern to play with.

Summer may be here now, but it’ll be fall before you know it. To give your shorts some extra seasonal life, check out the hosiery we have at Hosieree.com today!
