Mint High Waisted Shorts

High waisted shorts are a staple in my wardrobe. I honestly have over 15 pairs and I am still making more! I love how casual they can be but at the same time you can easily dress them up depending on the type of top and accessories you choose to wear. If you have followed my blog for awhile now, you understand completely how I am obsessed with simple pieces.

I made these mint high waisted shorts out of a silk polyester blend pillow case I found for $1 shopping awhile back. I do not have a tutorial for these shorts specifically, but they are similar to the mustard high waisted shorts I made a couple months ago. Hopefully soon I can get a helpful tutorial up, right now I shall share you my results of this lovely mint shorts.






The color of these shorts are absolutely incredible. Here are a few photos of the front and back.






I added a few pleats in them to add some shape. Photos do not serve these shorts justice when they are on the hanger.

I wore a sleeveless button down ivory chiffon top with this gorgeous pair of shorts. Very effortless yet chic.






 

High waisted shorts are perfect to go run errands in without feeling uncomfortable or exposed. I can guarantee you I will have another high waisted shorts post. They are just too darn cute for summer! :)

    They look lovely on you! This color tends to make my complexion look very dark and gloomy. Once you go high-waisted you never go back! haha. This has even become a factor in my regular length pants :) Makes my short legs look normal!
