Hot pants are back and here's why they make the perfect loungewear
The weather is hot, so it's only apt that you wear hotpants
By CHERYL CHAN -
Is it us or was August H-O-T? And as many of us are still stuck at home, and sometimes without the air-conditioning on, it’s causing us to re-look at some of the loungewear and pyjamas we’ve been wearing. As loungewear trends continue to dominate sales, we’ve spotted our favourite fashion influencers chilling in tiny, knit short shorts with a cup of coffee in hand.
While knit shorts seem like a weird thing to wear in Singapore, with the current stay home situation at hand, it’s sort of become the perfect item to relax in. While it might be short in fabric, it’s high in style. Not to mention, there’s tons of matching co-ord sets online that would give your home-style a perk-me-up, keeping you casual but stylish at the same time. And with the soft knitted material, they double up as great shorts to sleep in too!
These fuzzy sleep shorts from beloved celeb brand For Love & Lemons come with a drawstring for you to tighten your shorts if you’re looking to make them a little sexier.
