A great pair of teen shorts is ideal for almost any day or occasion, with the flexibility to be sportier than skirts and comfier than pants. There’s an endless range of ways to style teen girl shorts to suit your daughter’s personality and tastes!
Our favorite outfits are about personal style, as girls always feel their best when their clothes fit beautifully and banish any self-consciousness, whether your teen is interested in chic fashion, bright and colorful accessories, or laid-back style.
Today, we'll share just a small selection of the easiest and most wearable ways to create an outfit around a gorgeous, skin-friendly pair of our carefully designed girls' cotton shorts, which we hope inspires your shopping and helps you choose outfits your daughter will wear again and again.
Color-Contrasting Shorts and Tee Combos
When we think about how to style teen cotton shorts, comfort is king, and nothing says ‘chill’ more than whisper-light cotton fabrics that allow the skin to breathe and move without feeling restricted. Tees are available in an endless array of cuts and fits, which also means you can tailor an outfit to your girl’s fashion sense, whether she’d pick:
- Boxy cut, baggier tees
- Camis, vests, and tanks
- Classic tee shapes
- Cropped tops and tees
While basics are effortless to wear, adding pops of color with our Midtown Short range or contrasting shades with our Stryker x YB collection makes a simple, comfy outfit that little bit more special. You’ll also find a mix-and-match selection of sugary-sweet shades, grown-up natural hues, or sophisticated teals and greens in our Bliss Cotton Short that look perfect side by side.
Layering Shorts and Hoodies for Warmth and Comfort
Next, it's worth thinking about the outfits that your teen or tween will love wearing, whatever the weather and whatever she has planned. Layering is a great option for cooler mornings or chillier fall days.
Throwing on a cozy, comfy hoodie as a matching set with a pair of shorts or in a vibrant and clashing color or print can keep the breeze at bay, with a cami or tee underneath for time spent indoors.
Simple Styling: Shorts, Sneakers, and Accessories
For many girls, simplicity is a priority, without needing to think too much about every outfit or decide what to wear the night before. Adding in a few accessories your daughter loves can elevate the simplest loungewear or comfort clothing into a real outfit; think backpacks and bags, hair bands, statement scrunchies, bangles, friendship bands, or a favorite pair of sneakers.
Having a ready-to-wear wardrobe of perfectly-cut cotton separates makes throwing on an outfit at the last minute much less stressful!
Sporty Shorts Outfits for Teens
At Yellowberry, we love shorts that have a brilliant cut and fit, use customized sizing based on measurements, and feel as sporty and active as they do luxury and cozy.
Cotton is our fabric of choice because natural fibers are soft and supple enough for even the most sensitive skin and remain lightweight and breathable on more active days, whether it’s paired with sneakers and sports socks or slippers and a blanket!
