Become a FanNew Year looms and we can't think of a better reason to overhaul our wardrobes and get some new season style asap! For an instant update and an investment buy that will see you through the freezing winter weather right up to high summer, look no further than the short. The Spring Summer collections saw a profusion of these littering the catwalks; it would seem the era of the dress may finally be in demise, and seperates will once again feature heavily (and usefully we might add!) in our wardrobes. So long live the short, we say!
But what's that we hear you protest? Shorts are difficult, too cold for winter and too, well short, for day? Tosh. For a fail safe guide to working the short, look no further than style supremo's Olivia Palermo, Alexa Chung and Maggie Gyllenhaal. Showing how the short can work perfectly for a dressed up evening look, Olivia's look would also work with tights and slightly lower heel for a day time alternative. Alexa takes the perennial denim classic short and smartens it up with a blazer and white shirt. Finally Maggie looks a picture of minimilist chic with her all black ensemble - it's all about the shapes here, so pick a simple top and let your shorts do the talking.
Recreate the look with our key picks - we've already snapped up our slouchy short and will be working them, a la Olivia with the floral painted rose cami - the perfect way to get some colour into our life too.
