I've worn shorts more often ever since I moved to a warmer climate. When it's 100F outside, it's tough to wear anything other than shorts in light fabrics, or linen pants. Your number of times wearing shorts looks like it is a key component of your style. We are in day 252 out of the year. If you've worn your shorts ~33% of the year so far. A nice amount of times sporting shorts. Thanks for looking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2370041 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 16:16:33 +0000 Carla 2370041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting your shorts style outfits! &nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>I’m a shorts wearer during warm weather and will wear a long sleeved top or even a topper with shorts for cool mornings and evenings, rather than longer bottoms. &nbsp;If my core is warm - I’m good!</p> <p></div><div>Summer temps are holding firm where I live (northern shore of Lake Ontario in Ontario, Canada) with temps in the high 20’s Celsius and ‘feeling like’ low 30’s Celsius (high 80’s Fahrenheit). &nbsp;I’ve worn shorts outfits <b>84&nbsp;</b>times so far this year, and&nbsp;I’m in shorts for the next week or two. &nbsp;I don’t think of them much as elements of style - but it looks like I should - since, shorts are some of my hardest working garments!</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2370011 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 22:18:01 +0000 Lisa 2370011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>April </b>- I remember when shorts and tights were THE thing to wear. I can't recall the last time I actually wore a pair of tights. :)</p> <p><b>Angie </b>- The belts should arrive by Monday, so hopefully next week I can get some WIWs with them. I'm currently debating what to add to the gold belt order, but there are too many things that I like! *laughs* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369976 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 16:57:54 +0000 Angie 2369976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! A tripod! Excellent idea and very effective :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Hope the Boden belts work out. Let me know! I have a big Boden order in my cart. Belts included. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369943 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 09:33:05 +0000 April 2369943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool, Lisa!</p> <p>When I started college in 1982, some of the female students were wearing their denim cutoffs (well weathered from a summer spent sailing off Nantucket) with thick tights beneath. That was the first time I'd see shorts as a fall combination.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369935 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 01:16:46 +0000 Lisa 2369935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jenny H </b>- I'm with you, I never used to wear shorts with long sleeves either, but with our large temperature variations throughout the day, it seems to work. I only get to wear the jackets/shirt/top layer for a couple of hours before it's too hot and I'm taking it off for the rest of the day. Thanks for looking!</p> <p><b>Jaime</b> - As a scientist by training, I always enjoy a good experiment. Thanks for looking!</p> <p><b>Kate </b>- I never used to be a fan of shorts, but the past few years I found styles that I really enjoy. It started with a pair of WHBM shorts and I found the longer inseam and fabric more comfortable than most denim options which often run very short in the inseam and/or the thick material clings to the thigs, which I don't want when it's hot out. Thanks for looking!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369932 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 00:39:21 +0000 Kate 2369932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh, meant smokey topaz, not oat. But the oat colored shorts are also great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369931 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 00:38:10 +0000 Kate 2369931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in shorts, Lisa. I love the oat colored shorts and jacket in #1-3 with the Spice girl tee. So cute.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369929 Fri, 13 Sep 2024 00:21:00 +0000 Jaime 2369929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The matching shorts and jacket are excellent! I like your experimental attitude too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369912 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 20:45:30 +0000 Jenny H 2369912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I agree that these photos are fantastic, so hopefully you don't mind the extra effort of using the stand. I almost never wear shorts with long sleeves (since I run cold, I'm often better off wearing lightweight pants with a sleeveless of short sleeve top) but I enjoy seeing these outfits-- I particularly like the one with the plaid top.</p> <p>I've laundered and set aside most of my shorts for the season and now it's looking like we'll have at least another week (if not more) of shorts weather where I am. I'm hoping I can get by with dresses and skirts and the one pair I haven't let laundered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369908 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 20:34:54 +0000 Lisa 2369908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Janet</b> - Thank you for the kind words and for looking!</p> <p><b>Angie</b> - Layering the shorts this week has been a fun way to continue sporting them during our warm fall weather. The shorts set was my favorite too. And yes, my matchy-matchy gene was very happy with the tank and shorts pairing. </p> <p>The gold belt would indeed be a nice addition. Boden has a really nice selection of belts! I have the blue stripe and tan belts on order from your previous recommendation. I'm hoping they arrive soon so I can see if the size works and then I can pick up this one. Thanks for the suggestion! </p> <p>This stand from Amazon has really helped me up my WIW photos game. I recently got it and so far I'm very pleased. I haven't tried the remote that's included, I just use the timer on my phone.<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09TQY66NH?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&amp;th=1">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09T.....&#038;th=1</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369898 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 18:48:46 +0000 Angie 2369898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see your Fall capsule pieces in action,<b> Lisa</b>! Good idea adding a topper or top that you can peel off when most of the day is Summery shorts weather :)</p> <p>Your shorts set in #1 is KILLER and soooo on trend! Love it with the playful graphic tee and cute tan sneaks!</p> <p>A fab fortuitous match of shorts and tank in the second outfit! Your matchy-matchy gene is happy. I like how you elevated the outfit with dressy bag and necklace. Effective!&nbsp;</p> <p>And how are you taking those awesome outside pics?&nbsp;</p> <p>I see a gold belt with both outfits too:</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369895 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 18:17:35 +0000 Janet 2369895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute! You look fab in shorts! What a lucky match in color for those pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---layering-shorts-for-fall#post-2369893 Thu, 12 Sep 2024 17:05:34 +0000 Lisa 2369893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello.</p> <p>Since it's taking time for our fall to stay cool throughout the day, I decided to try layering pieces from my fall capsule wardrobes with shorts.</p> <p>It's really nice to start layering again now that the weather is starting to cool down in the mornings and evenings.</p> <p><b>#1 - #3 - Life is Good Spice Girl Tee and WHBM Jacket and Shorts in Smoky Topaz</b><br />I really liked this combination of ivory and browns for fall. The jacket and shorts are a few years old but they are the same as the Oat shorts in the finds.</p> <p><b>#4 and #5 - Rails Hunter Metallic Plaid Shirt and WHBM Mid-Rise Pret-A-Play Shorts in Oat</b><br />WHBM shorts fit me very well and I own them in a few colors. They are very easy to dress up and down, I like the inseam length, and the material is soft but has structure. I thought it was neat that the tank from Amazon perfectly matched the Oat colored shorts from WHBM. Don't you love when that happens?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
