We are starting to get used to it: the heat wave is back. But if you put your pants back in the closet, you will still have to find a decent outfit to go to work without suffocating or looking like a tourist at the beach. This is where the shorts come in. Bingo: this year, it is being revisited particularly in resolutely chic urban versions to let the leg breathe while remaining dignified at the next professional meeting.
We are inspired by the parades of Chloé , Alberta Ferretti , Chanel or even Fendi to afford a look of business woman with these ten very chic shorts and Bermuda shorts to wear everywhere in town. Psst: on weekends, swap moccasins / derbies / pumps for a pair of sneakers, wedges , flat sandals or Birk 'for a very comfortable version.
