The ultimate goal in dressing for day in the summer is comfort, and what could be more comfortable than silk? This summer, shorts made of silk are in, and the slinkier the better! Slinky, silky shorts can be just as good for a day at the park as they are for an evening out! ! And because they feel so good, why not wear them to do just about everything this summer? With a straight from the runway look, it's hard not to feel like you're Chlöe Sevigny while out and about about on summer days. The comfort of their flowy design makes them oodles-more appealing than anything tight-fitted, and the fabric itself has an instant cooling effect on the body upon contact! Look your shiny best, in these flashy bottoms, because colors and patterns always shine better in silk fabrics. For this summer's hottest cool couture check out a montage of silky shorts in this slideshow!

Sometimes, when you see a girl with seemingly effortless style that you know you would look ridiculous in, even if you were wearing literally the exact same clothes, it can make you jealous. Okay, maybe that's just me. But in the case of British model/television host Alexa Chung, it just makes you want to be her slightly less cool friend. Having modeled for the likes of Urban Outfitters, Antipodium and Vivienne Westwood, it figures that her style boasts eclectic choices as well as informed classics. Think mixing white t-shirts with fancy shorts and a simple tote bag, pairing it with messy hair and actually not looking insane. She takes experimental choices on red carpets, always, always dresses for her own body, and always looks comfortable in her own skin. Check out my slideshow for ways you can mimic the lovely Alexa Chung's style and maybe someone will want to be your slightly less cool friend!
