Fashionistas, spring is the best season to wear printed pants, but sometimes, those can be a bit too hot for the summer. So, to transition seasons with grace while maintaining style, I’m ALL about printed shorts this season.
Whether it’s floral or checkered, a sleek pair of shorts will add a playful component to a what could-be basic outfit.
Before I obsess more about this trend, I will not say these are really not meant to be worn in the office. Shorts are way too casual and short (lol) for the workplace, so make sure to wear these printed beauties on the weekend or at home after a day at the office.
There are several ways I’d wear a pair of printed shorts. Many of them being…


Blogger Not Billionaire shows us that a denim top and printed shorts should practically get married. They work SO well together. The collared style shirt paired with the casual shorts allows the outfit above to be very fun, yet maintain a little bit of sass and sophistication.  PLUS, the pop of color with the shoes is really working for me here. The color is vibrant and matches with the orange print found in the shorts. Talk about a cohesive look!

Style blogger Jo Lynne Shane shows us that you don’t have to go all crazy with patterned shorts. Rather, a simple basic white top will do just the charm and allow the print on those fun shorts to shine.
Plus, a basic top makes a great canvas for fun shoes and jewelry. None of the items will clash with one another, allowing a look to be very clean and not too in-your-face. As we see, Jo Lynne is pairing her top and blue patterned bottoms with a fun yet simply chic necklace and some elegant bracelets.

What would you rock with patterned shorts, fashionistas? The options are endless!
