Backside Coverage

If you are on the fence about biker shorts, consider pairing them with a high low top (as seen here). I get it. You are putting yourself “out there” (for lack of a better word!). A moderate amount of backside coverage will ease the nerves without taking away from the look and feel of the outfit.

Compression Fit

I LOVE these biker shorts because they fit like second skin. In fact, they are high waisted, and rather slimming. They help shape my figure into an hourglass appearance because of their hip hugging nature. Who can complain about that?! We all have insecurities. If your lower half is one of them, don’t let this trend deter you…rather gravitate towards a compression fit.

Pink and Pearls

Ok…maybe I did not go down this exact route but the concept is the same! When your outfit is borderline racy (it probably isn’t but just in case) add feminine details. I typically accomplish this by incorporating pink and pearls into my ensembles. Today, however, I paired my biker shorts with a high low lavender blouse and matching jewel drop earrings. To me, this outfit exudes femininity. See how I did that?! Now it’s your turn!

Dressing in dresses, rompers, jumpsuits, and skirts 24/7 is simply unrealistic. So how does a gal like me incorporate tops into her wardrobe? Allow me to explain. When I am top huntin’ I keep an eye out for “basics with a twist.” I will always choose the white shirt with a ruffle embellishment over a plain pocket tee. I will buy the sheer top with puff sleeves over a fitted bodysuit. AND I will always buy the high-low top or shirt with an asymmetrical hemline! Do you see where I am going with this?!

Whenever I walk into a clothing store I make it a point to peruse the tops section. In fact, when I am with my mom I say, “do not let me leave the store without trying on or buying a shirt!” You can probably imagine my excitement when I laid eyes on this not so average high-low top! The color is dazzling, the fit is great (even for a five footer!), and the material is extremely resilient. I think we can all appreciate a low maintenance garment that hardly wrinkles. Now this is the kind of “jeans and a shirt” outfit I am genuinely excited to wear! Are you a top and bottom wearer, or do you prefer dresses and skirts too?!
