Even in midsummer, short over-the-knee shorts look painful on adults and may make them look like little boys.
Even in the heat of midsummer, wearing short over-the-knee shorts on the street is not popular with women and can make you look like a little boy, which can be painful. In particular, shorts in the Gurkha style with a high design will attract even more attention, so it is safer to choose shorts that are knee-length, just above the knee, or just below the knee, with a range of about 5 cm above and below the knee. In general, it is possible to fine-tune the balance by pairing with shoes and socks if the shorts are below the knee, but it is extremely difficult to maintain a mature and fresh look with short over-the-knee shorts. It is wise to eliminate them as an option in advance.

The color of the top and shorts is orange, and the loose-fitting silhouette gives the outfit a modern feel. The nice pairing of patterned socks and slip-on sneakers that balance the overall styling is also not to be missed.
