In this lookbook, I’m going to show you how to style shorts and boots in three different ways. We will be looking at denim shorts, high-waisted shorts, and linen shorts. For boots, I included chunky boots, knee-high boots, and over-the-knee boots. Let me show you how I style these pieces!

Jean shorts and over-the-knee boots

1. Jean shorts and boots outfits

This first look is my favorite one. It includes over-the-knee boots, denim shorts, and on top of it all I put on a simple black tank top together with a blazer.


A belt worn over the blazer cinches in my waist. It is one of those night-out looks that will definitely get you noticed.

The next look includes the same shorts, but I added knee-high boots and a gorgeous blue and white button-down shirt.


I styled the shirt really casually by keeping the neck open and then only tucking one side of it in. This is a nice relaxed look that you can wear for an everyday occasion.

For the third example that includes the denim shorts, I paired them with some chunky biker-style boots. I styled the shorts with a simple white button-down that I tucked in as well as a black belt.


This look gives off a bit of a tomboy, biker-girl vibe.

2. High-waisted shorts and boots outfits

Next up, I have a pair of olive-colored, high-waisted shorts that have a tailored fit and look very elegant.


I styled them with over-the-knee boots and an easy white cami top. I added a black blazer to dress the outfit up a bit. This is another great night-out look.

The second look with these shorts includes my knee-high boots and a white button-down that I tucked in. For a little accessory, I added a black purse with a chain strap.


The boots have a little heel that are low enough for me to feel comfortable wearing them day-to-day.

Here, I styled the shorts with chunky boots, a belt, and a black top. Again, I’m wearing the black bag with a chain strap over my shoulder, and I coordinated it with a chain-style necklace so that my accessories tie in with each other. 

Linen shorts and thigh-high boots

3. Linen shorts and boots outfits

The third pair of shorts are these beautiful beige linen ones. In this first example, I paired them with over-the-knee boots and a white button-down shirt and finished the look off with a black belt.


This outfit gives off such an effortless vibe, like you just rolled out of bed this way.

In the next outfit, I matched the linen shorts with a blue and white button-down shirt that is also made from linen. I love how these pieces look combined with knee-high boots and a belt.


I kept the shirt looking casual by pulling the sleeves up and keeping the neck open. This outfit gives off a clean and breezy finish.

Chunky boots and shorts

These chunky boots add a bit of edge to the linen shorts. Keeping it simple, I added a black vest top, black belt, and little black bag.

I really enjoy mixing and matching the clothes in my wardrobe to create endless outfit combinations that I love to wear.


Depending on the shorts and boots pairing that you go with, you can create easy, everyday looks or outfits that are more dressed up and suitable for a night out.
