8 Ways to Style Boxer Shorts

1. With a Lightweight Sweater

Early summer can still bring chilly weather in the morning and evening, so pairing a lightweight sweater with boxer shorts is a great idea. Slip on some of your favorite sneakers or sandals and accessorize the look with a cute bag and gold jewelry.

2. With a Short Sleeve Cardigan

Whether you’re on the coast of New England or the coast of Italy, this outfit idea is perfect for summer travel. Pair the boxer shorts with a colored, short-sleeve cardigan, some Adidas Sambas sneakers, and your favorite sunglasses.

3. With a Linen Vest

Another huge fashion trend this summer is the linen vest, and we love the idea of pairing it with boxer shorts. It instantly elevates the classic, casual look of boxer shorts. This outfit would be perfect to wear to a brunch with your girlfriends or when you are shopping on the weekend.

4. With a Basic Tee

When in doubt, reach for the basic baby tee. It never disappoints — especially when worn with boxer shorts. This is such an adorable, minimalist outfit that will 100% be repeated. Pair the tee and boxer shorts with socks and sneakers and add a ball cap to complete the look.

Summer is all about airy, breezy fashion. Styling boxer shorts with a basic white tank and a button-down is just that. Plus, this look is so effortlessly chic when you’re on the go. Complete the look with your favorite ballet flats, sandals, or sneakers.

6. With a Tee + Quilted Vest

Who says you can bring layers into the summer? Keeping the layers light and comfortable will be totally bearable in the summer sun. Start with your favorite pair of boxer shorts, throw on a basic white tee, and layer a lightweight, quilted vest on top. Complete the look with some Adidas Sambas, gold jewelry, and a slicked-back bun.

7. With an Oversized Graphic Tee

Boxer shorts + an oversized graphic tee = the easiest summer outfit. On the days you want to wear a cuter outfit but don’t have the effort to piece something together, this boxer short outfit idea will be your go-to option. Elevate the look with some layered gold jewelry, a bun, and some of your favorite sunglasses. 

8. With a Button-Up + Kitten Heels

Looking for a chic outfit to wear to brunch with your girlfriends or for a casual night out on vacation? Style your boxer shorts with a matching button-up and sandal kitten heels. Slick your hair back into a bun and add some fun earrings. We can’t think of a more comfortable, chic outfit.
