Playful patterned shorts were a hit on the runway this season, and this Madewell pair is the boldest of the bunch.
Dress them up for fun occasions with a neutral lace top. For footwear, try strappy gold sandals or metallic flats. Go for fun statement jewelry–the playful print of the shorts calls for it. Finish up with a bold lipstick. Coral pairs beautifully with cobalt blue and emerald green.
If you want a more casual look, start with a chambray top or a striped shirt. Don’t worry, you can pair these shorts with other prints. Just make sure that the print you add is in a similar color family. Subtle prints are better for creating a polished look. Add a beautiful ring or some statement earrings. If you wear a ring, don’t forget some lovely nail polish. Comfy shoes like oxfords or ballet flats make this look perfect for a picnic or a day out with friends.
