Due to our hot and humid climate, shorts have become synonymous with Singapore fashion. At any given time of the day, you’ll we see plenty of women strutting down Orchard Road wearings shorts in all sorts of all styles and colourways.
However, this ubiquitous wardrobe staple is sometimes ruined by women who show way too much skin, leaving little for the imagination! When worn correctly, shorts are supposed to make you feel tall, chic and subtly sexy, while allowing ultimate freedom to your legs.
Here are three easy outfits you should try out to attract the right kind of attention while showing off those slender gams. Remember, it all boils down to the styling.
They are classy and elegant, and lend a chic semi-formal look to your outfit. Style it with a shirt and anchor the look with a pair of pointed toe pumps.
