• Skinny pants are trending again (if they ever stopped being so)
  • Trend alert: cowboy boots are back stomping harder than ever
  • Pool or beach plan: these are the models of swimsuits and bikinis that sweep this summer

In these hot days that do nothing but announce the imminent arrival of summer, Bermuda shorts are presented as the perfect alternative to the jacket suits so common in office looks. Elegant and fresh, this is this garment that can not miss in your wardrobe for this spring-summer 2023 season. Originally used by the British army to cope with the heat of tropical and desert climates, they reached their peak in the 80s and 90s. This is how we saw various style icons of the time wear them, such as Lady Di, who regularly wore men's garments, or Julia Roberts in 'Pretty Woman', with an 'oversize' suit in tile color.

They have become a key piece of the 'street style' and a basic that is repeated year after year because its versatility and style allows different combinations with which to achieve a sophisticated look at the same time casual. With the comfort of pants and the freshness offered by a skirt or dress, Bermuda shorts pose a more than valid option to create everyday outfits. Whether with a basic t-shirt or a 'blazer', if we want to bring that more 'chic' touch, this garment, in masculine origin, is ideal for both professional appointments and holiday looks.

Bermuda shorts with shirt, a sure hit

And Meghan Markle knows it. Although she has recently been seen with a look that is part of the trend of 'gorpcore', the Duchess of Sussex is a regular dress pants, even in its most summery version: Bermuda shorts, in this case with tweezers and navy blue, combined with a white silk shirt. As complements, a brown leather belt and a 'clutch' of the same tone of Cult Gaia. Ten out of ten.

However, if you are looking for something more casual while maintaining the elegance of a shirt, we recommend a look like the one offered by fashion blogger Kim Turkington. Flowing shorts in pale yellow and a linen shirt with a 'denim' look make up this perfect outfit for the summer season.

As a short suit

How to wear a suit this summer in the office and not die of heat in the attempt? The answer is clear: Bermuda shorts and matching jacket. A look that is not excessively serious and certainly not informal. In addition, this stylistic proposal allows to replace the high-heeled shoe with flat shoes, and even with sneakers to achieve a 'cool' effect. Therefore, fashion firms are betting on this more casual form of tailoring, and some like Next Gen have chosen to include some designs in their spring-summer 2023 collection.

Gala González, fashion blogger and style reference, is another of those who has sometimes opted for this trend. With Bermuda shorts and jacket of the same tone, in addition to loafers, the Spanish influencer offers us a relaxed and glamorous style at the same time.

Denim shorts, for everyday life

Finally, we can not forget the denim version of these versatile pants. Some celebrities like Kim Kardashian or Kendall Jenner turn to them without hesitation, and they are the best option if you like denim and think that the 'shorts' are not for you. Whether with a basic t-shirt, with a 'top' and even with a shirt, denim shorts will help you solve more than one daily look. This is demonstrated by the model Gigi Hadid with this model of frayed high and low throw that she completed with a 'crop top' and an 'oversize' striped shirt. All this combined with Adidas Samba sneakers and a cap.
