This spring, pants are out, legs are in! Hot pants and short shorts are going to create one hot look this summer. Summers are all about being sexy and revealing; hemlines have been creeping up and up and finally turned negative; very–very short shorts are revolutionizing street wear, as innerwear lingerie styles evolve into outerwear.
Steamy look Hot pants:
Hot pants started off as lingerie, transformed into fashionable gym wear and finally arrived on the ramp as chik street wear. They have always been endorsed by bold, confident, forward thinking fashioners with great figures.
Make the crowd feel hot under the collar with mid-cut and high-waisted hot pants. Where high-waisted hot pants start above the belly button, mid-cut hot pants start at or just below the belly button. Hot pants with a negative hemline reveal a lot of skin. Balance this with high waisted pants.
- Hot pants really look like wholesome underwear. Buy them in bold prints and vintage motif patterns to make them even sexier. Evening wear hot pants should have a negative hemline, curving up the outer thigh and follow the shape of your perfectly toned bum. Pair them with slick medium high heels to accentuate your shapely legs and derriere.
- You can tone down the revealing sexy look with loose tops, flowing blouses or leather jackets and blazers. You can also mix them with the latest sportswear fashion or knits to make your own style statement.
- For a suave look, wear hot pants with patterned tights or colorful stockings and a belt around your hips.
Hot look Boy shorts:
Slightly more relaxed than hot pants, boy shorts’ hemlines do not curve up the body. The shorts are really short, figure hugging around the back but with a relaxed front. The pants can be worn high on the waist or even lower to make the stomach look longer and flatter, all depends on how hot you want to look. Wear denim boy shorts with t-shirts for a everyday look or team up with a halter top and wide hipster belt for a screen siren look.
Casual look Tap pants:
Tap pants are not figure hugging, so on really hot days when you are in a mood to stay indoors, pair these comfortable short pants with open neck shirts or long flowing sheer tops. Tap pants generally have a ruffled hemline, some with lace at the bottom showcasing lingerie as an outerwear alternative. Throw on some flashy accessories and flats on your feet and you are all set to go.
Stylish Body suits:
Body suits will be the ultimate style statement this year, available in knits, cottons and stretch fabrics and bolder cuts close to the buttocks. Wear them with a belt and sheer or net leggings and throw on a pair of high heels. You can also add layers with a cool leather jacket and matching socks for a highly stylish look.
