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.

Today I’m updating a longtime favorite look with a maxi dress that has a little more shape and structure—but still has all the things I loved about the original. Same formula (maxi + denim jacket), just a bit more refined.
