As if you couldn’t figure it out from the photos, I’ll let you in on my favorite spring outfit combination … sweaters with shorts. It’s the juxtaposition that I trust. Warm on top, cold on the bottom or vice versa for the afternoons. I especially like this combination for the early days of summer with my tried and true cut-offs. I need to find some new ones for summer but that’s another post for another day.

I’ve been very into tailored shorts I’ve noticed lately. Or at least my shopping carts across the internet are filled with them. I finally settled on this pair from Topshop, I liked the stripes and the fit is high-waisted, which is a win for my long torso. (Just as a note, the fabric is like a thicker fabric! I was pleasantly surprised because they kept their shape more than I thought they would!) You can find these shorts here!

So I’ve got my shorts, what about a sweater in this combo? I picked this sweater up during the recent LOFT sale and it’s just spring perfection. It’s lightweight and the perfect shade to pair with basically anything. Beige — it seems so boring but it goes with everything. Beige is that ride or die friend in college.  Beige isn’t the color we want, but it’s the color we need. You can find this sweater here!

Fit Details

I sized up to a large on the sweater because I wanted it to be loose! It’s more fitted than it is on the model, so if you want it loose, size up! Shorts, stay true to size. The waist is very fitted, but they are true to size.
