Trend: Denim Shorts

Denim has been popular since the 1950s but did you know that denim was still in style in the 21st century? I personally love denim shorts because it looks stylish and casual!

Denim shorts are great for casual outings or lounging around at home. There are different ways to wear denim shorts, depending on your body type. But sometimes people wear denim shorts in the wrong way. Do you wear your denim shorts right? Find out here.

First of all, you need to find out your body type before you buy your shorts. Are you more curvy on the bottom half or are you more straight? If you are curvy, your shorts need to end at a more flattering part of your body. That's either just above the knees but if you have fabulous legs and you want the rock n' roll look, a little bit higher, but not to high 'cause then you might be sending out the wrong message. I would go with just above the knee. Also, don't go with shorts with too much detailing. If you are particularly curvy on the backside (bum) avoid stitching at the pockets if the pockets are located at the back. Make sure you keep it simple but sleek.
Also look for shorts that have more stretch in them if you are more curvy at the bottom half. The point is that it looks good on the hips and bottom but is also comfortable.

If you are straight on the bottom half, you can go for as much detailing as you want on your denim shorts. Also, you can do for much stiffer shorts than the curvy ones can. The length of the shorts is up to you but remember the message that the length says.

You can wear shorts at any time of the year but it makes more sense to wear them in the summer or late spring. If you want to wear denim short during the winter/ autumn, thrown some opaque tights and ankle boots. For the top, wear something that is not longer than the shorts itself to even the look out. The summer/spring, wear it with flip flops and a tank top and say hello to the beach.

And that is how you wear denim shorts.
