Checkered Hotpants

I'm trying to get into posting my outfit posts! It's hard I think to post outfits all the time as you may sometimes have great ideas for outfits and sometimes have none! I recently went to Liverpool One for the day with my best friend Sam and we've both got a huge love for River Island at the moment! When we normally go on a shopping trip he runs for Topman and I run for Topshop but I must say we spent a LONG time in the River Island store in Liverpool! (It's amaaaazing!)

I made a sneaky little purchase which are these gorgeous checkered shorts! I spied them as soon as I walked into the shop and I new they just had to have a place in my wardrobe! They're absolutely stunning and I really like the print of the shorts and how they really stand out but make an outfit!
These checkered shorts are quite a large fit so I'm currently wearing a size 8! I normally take a size 10 but one thing I never really understood about River Island is that the product sizing varies! I teamed these gorgeous check shorts with my favourite new crop top from Missguided! I have such an obsession with panel mesh crop tops, playsuits and dresses and I think they just look amazing and really flatters your chest! (if it's big or if it's too small)!

I love this outfit together and think it'd make an amazing look for a night out on the town with friends but I think this would look great for a gig with a pair of cut out leather boots and cute ankle socks!
What do you think of this outfit? How'd you wear these shorts? Twitter//Instagram//Facebook
