Fancy hot pants

Majorly coveting the scalloped hemline shorts!  The Chloe hot pants look effortlessly chic paired with a blazer on Sienna and Kate, but seeing as it's only June and it's already in the upper 90's, Lauren Conrad's west coast, laid back approach to the scalloped shorts might work better for us Houstonians.

When wearing short shorts, think about proportion. As the hemline inches up, consider covering up a little bit more on top, with a three-quarter length sleeve airy silk top.  LC definitely got it right by wearing a loose fitted tank.  For those of us that dress more conservativly, its best to offset the tiny shorts with a more modest top (not to mention more flattering).  The scalloped short is a whimsical twist on a summer staple, that is super girly and fun to wear!
