I realize that this is not a new trend (like the Safari or Grecian inspired looks for Spring), but this is new to me: Walking shorts + Heels.

Yes. It’s simple and you’d think I’d have caught on to this one sooner, but while I wore my walking shorts every other day last summer, I played it safe with flats or flip-flops. Today, however, I’m boldly marching on to campus in walking shorts and my red espadrilles. I love the long lines and instant height of this look, and I’m finally at eye level with E. and A. in these!

OO I love the heels with the shorts. I always wear flats with mine too. I think next time I’ll wear some wedges and it’ll help my hips not looking so stinking wide.
So simple, but so classy! Perfect!
You look AWWWWESOME!
Love this look!
Va va voom! The shorts and heels really show off your figure. Very flattering!
You look GREAT!!!! LOVE those shorts on you!
I would never have thought to wear heels with shorts, but after seeing your look, I might have to try it! I love that embroidery.
This pairing makes your legs look about a billion miles long. Very flattering!
I’ll add this trick to my compilation of summer-friendly business casual looks.
