Wearing shorts at night

You've seen pics of celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow and Amanda Seyfried wearing them, and now it's your turn. Not convinced? We've got a few genius reasons why:

1. Shorts have all the leg-baring sexiness of a skirt, minus the worry that it'll fly up and show your thong.
2. It's a great way to get more mileage out of your summer wardrobe (and totally justify your purchase of a new pair).
3. Even when this trend fades away, you can still wear your shorts during the day, so you won't feel like a fashion victim for jumping on board.
4. It makes that whole day-to-night transition way easy: just throw a blazer or cardigan over your shorts and shirt, swap your flip flops for heels and you're good to go.
