Jeans are one of the absolute evergreens even in summer. For all those who still long for a change in their summer wardrobe, we have six alternatives to the long-running fashion denim shorts.
1. Tweed shorts
Chanel showed how it is done, the it girls of the world are copying it: Tweed also works in summer. Although the robust mixed fabric is very firm and not very air-permeable, the wide legs ensure that you can cool down. In combination with a matching jacket, the shorts also work in the office. Sneakers and basic shirts break the look down so that they are suitable for everyday use.
2. Radler
Real fashion girls can't avoid cycling shorts this year. Admittedly, we were a bit skeptical at first, but now we love the trend. Cycling shorts are true fashion all-rounders: They are neither too short nor too long – perfect for all those for whom classic denim shorts have always been a touch too short. In addition, the sporty version, as with Scandi blogger Matilda Djerf, is ultra comfortable. Instead, Leonie Hanne prefers to wear the light denim bike and styles this classy with high shoes and body.
3. Leather shorts
Warning: now it's getting sexy. Is influencer Xenia Adonts on her way to the hot data night? With her high-cut leather shorts that perfectly showcase her long legs, she is guaranteed to get one or two admiring glances. We particularly like the contrast of leather pants and chaste knitted sweater. The latter breaks down the look and ensures that Xenia's outfit is coherent and not too much.
4. Lace shorts
This outfit by Nina Schwichtenberg combines several must-haves for this summer: The Munich-based woman of choice combines white lace shorts and natural-colored accessories with the super-trendy linen blouse. Now all we need is a sun-kissed complexion similar to Nina and the look would be perfect!
5. Short papebag pants
Paperbag pants have long been true classics and belong in every wardrobe. So why shouldn't the little sister of the evergreen move in with us? Girl boss Katharina Hingsammer shows how easy it is to style the paperbag shorts: white top, filigree gold jewelry and voilà – the perfect summer look is ready!
6. Jogger shorts
You might not even have to go shopping to recreate this cool outfit. Just have a look at your sports gear – maybe you already have one or two jogger shorts. Street style stars rely on a style break and combine brightly colored athleisure wear with noble items such as blazers, shirts and co. This look may require a little more fashion courage, but is certainly rewarded with admiring looks!
