Women in their 50s are in agreement—this is the most chic shorts trend of the summer.
I have never viewed the shorts in my closet as some of my most sophisticated items. When I aim for a polished appearance in the summer, I usually opt for a satin dress or a white cotton skirt instead. However, after seeing Tracee Ellis Ross in New York this week, I'm rethinking that perspective.
Dressed in a pair of tailored Bermuda shorts that reach just above the knee, Tracee has highlighted a shorts trend that is just as elegant as the most stylish skirts or trousers. The longer length provided a sleek, elongating look, giving her outfit a refinement that summer styles can sometimes lack.
Styling was clearly a key factor as well. By pairing her tailored shorts with a checked button-down shirt that was neatly tucked in, Tracee embraced one of the major print trends for autumn while keeping her look light and suitable for the season. She completed the outfit with brown peep-toe heels, adding both height and elegance effortlessly.
While denim shorts might have made the outfit feel more casual, the tailored design and longer Bermuda silhouette provided the same level of sophistication as sharp, wide-leg trousers.
