When it's pouring cats and dogs, and there is a high possibility of having to negotiate more than just harmless puddles of water, shorts might be the smart, logical way to look stylish even when the heavens open. For, shorts are no longer just being worn to the gym, and athleisure is still very much in vogue. City-based stylist Isha Bhansali drafts the primer to wearing shorts depending on your body type.

Frayed edges

. With frayed edges, you can go for a badass look by opting for a dark shade and pairing it up with a bomber or leather jacket and cap.
. Add inches to your frame with a high-waist silhouette. Be careful while selecting the length of the shorts —
it should fit your body just like a pair of jeans. If it's too baggy, it
won't complement your figure.
. The hemline should be slightly airy. The hemlines of skinny shorts usually get hidden under the derrière, so it's better to opt for a pair with wide thighs.
. Wear them with low sneakers, heeled pumps or strappy heels.
