I love the idea of dressing up a pair of casual, loose denim shorts for a summer evening out. A tweed jacket or a shimmery bouclé topper will always dress up denim. Chic ballet flats will add a classic touch to the outfit.

Another perfect day-to-night outfit. Keep your denim shorts looking polished by pairing them with a black blouse and kitten heel mules. A belt is a must to tie the look together.

You cannot go wrong with a pair of high-waisted linen shorts in summer. Lean into the "coastal grandma" aesthetic and team it with a crisp white button-down. Black accessories will add contrast to the classic look.

Nothing looks as chic as an all-white outfit in summer. Go for lightweight linen shorts, a minimalist top, and chic beige accessories to complete your expensive-looking ensemble.

Black biker shorts can look chic if styled with the right pieces. For a city look, pair with a minimalist black top and an oversize white button-down. Accessories are important—a polished handbag and cushy leather sandals are the perfect complements.
