Helping women love what they wear on a budget

6 Ways to Wear Biker Shorts

July 12, 2021 by Katie Haller

I don’t know about you but I got pretty excited when I saw that biker shorts were back in style.  As a kid in the early 90’s I loved wearing biker shorts.  I had little matching sets with matching skirts.  They were the best!

Last summer I decided to buy a pair of biker shorts after seeing a lot of people wearing them on Instagram.  I bought this pair (HERE) on Amazon.  They are compression shorts which are amazing, especially if you are postpartum like I was last summer, and well I still feel postpartum 😂.  I love the shorts, but I had a little problem.  I wasn’t sure how to wear them.  When I first got them I was only wearing them with an athletic shirt and sports bra to work out in.  After doing a little Pinterest research and playing around with the clothes in my closet I came up with some outfit ideas for how to wear biker shorts.

If you are stumped on how to wear biker shorts like I was, here are 6 ways to wear a pair of biker shorts.

    It took me some time to warm up to wearing biker shorts, but now I wear them all the time! I'll have to check out these that you have from Amazon. I personally love styling my biker shorts with an oversized pullover.

I love a black dress, but on its own it’s a litt I love a black dress, but on its own it’s a little boring! Here’s my outfit formal for keeping my summer outfits from falling short! 👇

1️⃣ Create shape and balance! I did this by adding a belt just above my natural waist. 
2️⃣ Add Jewelry. Do not skip this step! No outfit is complete without at least 2 pieces of jewelry. 
3️⃣ Define the style of the outfit with shoes! The style of shoes you pick will define your outfit. Example Sneakers=casual, Heels=dressy, in this case I went with an elevated casual sandal. It’s a step up from casual, but not too dressy. Elevated casual is my personal favorite style because it can go either way. 😉
4️⃣ Complete the look with some accessories! A cute hand bag or sunglasses 😎 

Follow this summer outfit formula to keep all your outfits looking cute and stylish this summer!

I’ve always found thrifting a great way to keep wardrobe fresh without spending a lot of money, but over the last 5 years or so my thrifting strategy has changed from getting the most for my money to intentionally looking for brands and styles that are usually out of my price range at retail prices and finding them for less buying them second hand!
