Hey! I'm Mackie and I'll be a guest blogger on 50 Shades of Pink, I'm so excited to share this with you guys and hope to create more content.
The biker short trend popped up on runways a couple of years ago, then started picking up steam with fashion girls in 2020. And while many people thought that this once-controversial trend would be a flash in the pan, it’s proven to have some serious staying power. As we move into summer 2023, biker shorts have become mainstream. You’ll now find bike shorts all over store shelves and social media, as well as on stylish women in cities across the globe.
One reason biker shorts have become so popular is their impressive versatility. Invented in the 1970s and popularized in the 1980s, biker shorts were originally designed to be high performance workout gear. However, style-setters from the ‘80s, ‘90s, and today have shown us that biker shorts can also look fantastic outside of a gym setting. These cute and comfortable shorts can add style to any type of look, whether you’re going casual or going out.
The versatility of bike shorts is probably their best quality, but it’s also what makes them unapproachable to many people. With so many styling possibilities, where do you start? We’re here to answer this question as we go over 3 different ways you can style biker shorts.
Style Your Biker Shorts with a Sports Bra/Matching Set
Chances are, if you're shopping for a pair of biker shorts, the same store sells a T-shirt or sweatshirt to match. Or, you can embrace the athleisure trend by rocking a full fitness set, pairing a crop top or bralette with these sporty bottoms. I personally paired it with a sports bra which is also found in Adora's shop and the Biker Shorts are from her shop as well. The sports bra is in a size small!
Style Your Biker Shorts with an Oversized T-Shirt
One summer outfit you can put together in a flash is an oversized T-shirt and biker shorts with sneakers. The laid-back pairing is chill enough for a variety of daytime activities, such as a chill brunch with friends or a trip to the beach. The Tee is from Jagoda’s shop and biker shorts are from Adora’s shop. I paired it with a cap and some earrings to accessorize the fit. The Tee is in a size large and the shorts are in a size small!
Style Your Biker Shorts with a Regular Tee
This one's rather simple, you cannot go wrong styling a regular Tee fit to your size with biker shorts. The Tee I have on is in a size small and can be found from Adoras's shop. This shop has a lot of cute things and all sorts of styles.
