Ah, the ever polarizing bike short. This trend came on hot and heavy in spring 2020 and either you love ’em or you hate ’em. It took me a while to get on board, but once I found a flattering fit for my body type, I was hooked. I think for someone short and somewhat curvy [with defined quads], I need a bit of length for them to be flattering. But not too long. Mid-thigh to right above the knee seems to be best for me. Below I’m sharing 5 outfit ideas on how to wear these in a flattering, stylish, but still subtle way.
THE 90s WAY
cropped white jacket // tie dye tee c/o [$7; wearing a L] // bike shorts [$7; wearing a M]
JEAN JACKET
jean jacket // similar striped tee // bike shorts c/o [under $10; wearing a M] // similar sandals
BUTTON DOWN TUNIC
striped top // shoes // bike shorts [$7; wearing a M]
GRAPHIC/LEOPARD TEE
similar tee // shoes c/o // bike shorts c/o [under $10; wearing a M]
CROPPED SWEATSHIRT
cropped sweatshirt c/o // similar shoes // headband // bike shorts [$7; wearing a M]
So, which one is your favorite?! Or, maybe none at all? Either way is cool with me. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this polarizing trend!
