Styling shorts with hosiery gives you a whole new category of pieces to choose from in your fall and winter wardrobes. For most, the turning of the seasons means tucking away your favorite shorts until the following year. This doesn’t have to be the case when you know a few tricks for matching your go-to pairs with your favorite hosiery.
Casual Versus Dressy
You can create both casual and dressy looks with your shorts and hosiery pairings. A pair of distressed denim cutoffs, fishnet hosiery, and boots gives you an edgy style perfect for going for a casual night out or attending a concert. A pair of tailored satin shorts with opaque tights and heels is perfect for dinner and drinks during a night out.
Regardless of the look you’re trying to achieve, you can do it with the right shorts and hosiery pairing.
You Can Experiment With Any Top
Blazer? Sweater? Blouse? Tee? There is no top style that is off-limits when you’re pairing shorts with hosiery. With an oxford shirt and blouse, a tailored pair of shorts with your favorite patterned tights is office ready. With a tee and oversized jacket, you’re ready for brunch with your favorite people. Opaque tights, denim shorts, and a chunky knit sweater is exactly the look you’re after if you’re going for an afternoon shopping or having a casual dinner with friends.
Consider The Weather
Weather can vary wildly in the fall and winter months, and this is something to take into consideration when creating looks involving tights and shorts. In autumn, or on warmer days, opting for a lower denier tight with a pattern might be the better bet. This allows you breathability, while still taking your shorts into the fall season comfortably and fashionably. For those chilly deep winter days, you’ll likely be more comfortable opting for the higher denier ultra-opaque pieces like the Gabriella Arctic 500 Microfiber Tights.
