  • Dolphin Shorts - also a short sports version (for example, for playing beach volleyball), equipped with a drawstring at the waist. These are not just beachwear, but also a popular fitness option. If the shorts are folded, then their silhouette looks like a dolphin's tail, for which they got their name.

  • Swim shorts are a special option. Suitable for dynamic girls actively participating in beach games (for example, beach volleyball). Made of thin, quick-drying fabric, they are complemented by pockets, lacing or an elastic waistband.

Recent seasons in the trend of a model in a retro style - shorts with a high rise and a cropped top (by the way, a winning solution for obese women: inflated swimming trunks smooth out the excessive roundness of the hips and protruding belly, and the upper part focuses on the lush chest).

Length

As for the length of women's beach shorts, then, unlike men's models, in the overwhelming majority these are short options, which are most comfortable on vacation, moreover, allowing you to demonstrate a beautiful tan. Young girls are happy to choose them. Longer option for older women - Bermuda, covering the knees.

Fabric and color

First of all, clothes for summer should be very light and breathable. And if you are relaxing on the sea, then things that are easy to wash and dry quickly will come in handy. In addition, in hot weather, it is more likely to get allergic manifestations from contact with synthetic fabric. Therefore, beach shorts are best purchased from these natural materials - cotton, linen, satin, thin jeans, light jersey... These fabrics have no problems with washing and dry quickly.

Choose bright and cheerful colors for beach shorts: red, green, turquoise, orange colors will cheer you up.

Many fashionistas prefer white beach shorts. This color perfectly sets off the tan and brings sophistication to the image.

Colorful models with a variety of prints will also be appropriate.: in a small flower, peas, with abstract or geometric patterns. Animalistic motifs, imitation of reptile skin on the fabric always look spectacular. Young girls look cute images of cartoon characters, various fish, butterflies, elephants. Marine motifs and iridescent colors are always in fashion.

Sporty models often have contrasting vertical stripes on the side.

Decor

Decor can often give a stylish look to clothes. So, the colored edging along the bottom of the beach shorts looks impressive, especially if they themselves are made in white. Lace inserts on the sides and bottom are very sexy, especially since lace is in trend today. If you have branded shorts, the company logo embroidered with silk threads (Tommy hilfiger, Hurley, Lacoste) will add style to them. Contrast lacing is also able to decorate the item, as well as interesting patch pockets. The imagination of the designers even allows you to decorate your beach shorts with precious stones.

How to choose?

In general, it is desirable for a real fashionista to have several options for summer shorts in her arsenal. After all, a beach holiday is not limited only to swimming. For a beachside café party, the Betty Riders model is a great option, for example, paired with a sheer tunic. For a romantic date by the sea, choose culottes, complementing them with a graceful blouse.

When purchasing beach shorts, pay attention to the quality of the fasteners and zippers: after all, you will have to use them several times a day, and besides, their contact with water is possible. And rusted rivets will definitely not support your serene mood.

Choose a model in accordance with the characteristics of your figure. Shorts should emphasize the merits and, if possible, mask the flaws. For example, only slender young girls can afford ultra-short options (in general, the older a woman, the longer the length of her shorts should be).

If you are short or the owner of not very long legs, then you should not choose breeches or narrowed shorts or gathered at the bottom - they will visually shorten the figure. The model with cuffs will add volume to overly thin hips. The low-rise shorts will lengthen your upper body.

When choosing shorts by color, start from your main wardrobe, think in advance how you will combine things in order to get harmonious, not flashy ensembles.

And of course, beachwear should be comfortable and practical. Therefore, pay special attention to the quality of the fabric.
