Okay, let’s talk about this whole suit and shorts thing I tried out.

So, I saw this trend going around, “suit with shorts,” and I thought, “Why not give it a shot?” I mean, I like to look good, but I also like to be comfy, you know? This seemed like it could be the best of both worlds.
First, I picked out a suit. I didn’t want anything too formal, so I went with a light gray, linen one. It’s more breathable, which is important when you’re messing with the whole suit-shorts equation. Then, I needed to find the right shorts. I figured they should match the suit, so I found some light gray ones, also linen.
Choosing a shirt was the next step. I tried on a few different ones. A plain white t-shirt looked alright, a bit too casual maybe. A light blue button-down shirt seemed a bit too much like I was trying to be fancy. In the end, I settled on a simple, dark-colored polo shirt. It felt like a good middle ground.
- Suit: Light gray, linen
- Shorts: Light gray, linen, matching the suit
- Shirt: Dark-colored polo
Putting It All Together
When I put it all on, I was actually surprised. It looked better than I expected! It’s definitely a different vibe, kind of like, “I’m here for business, but I’m also chill.” The linen suit was light enough that I didn’t feel too hot, even though it was a warm day.
I wore this getup to a casual outdoor party. People definitely noticed, and I got a few compliments. Some folks were curious, asking where I got the idea. I just told them I saw it online and wanted to try it. A few said they might try it too. Overall the experiment is a success! Feeling good!

Honestly, I think this suit and shorts thing is going to be my go-to for certain occasions. It’s stylish, it’s comfortable, and it’s a bit different. If you’re thinking about trying it, I say go for it. Just make sure the suit isn’t too formal, and the shorts match well.
