Dressy Shorts - Vintage Item of the Day

Ok, I fell down on the job again yesterday. My friend Lisa is right, I need an assistant. Going to have to look into that, but onwards!

Today's Vintage Item of the Day is dressy shorts.  Huge in the 80's, dressy shorts work just as well today and can take over for a skirt while adding a little unique flair, especially is you wear vintage shorts!

Vintage black & white striped shorts. with a high waist from the 80's. Worn with a blazer and heels they turn professional. With a cute wrap shirt over a tank top they go a little more casual.

So, there you have it. Dressy shorts can punch up a wardrobe, just add something a little different. All of the more modern takes can be done using vintage dressy shorts as well. Whether you wear them with tights and a sweater for cooler weather, or a tank and bare legs in the summer, try some vintage dressy shorts as a way of adding some vintage style to your wardrobe!



For the striped dressy vintage shorts shown above, plus vintage jewelry, more vintage clothing, vintage accessories, vintage decor and more, I hope to see you soon at my store!
