Matching shirt and shorts set a mood, whether they are blue or black short and shirt. No matter the season, for business casual and evening wear, matching tops and bottoms have always been an important fashion item.
But, when you’re looking for something a little different and want to try out a few different looks, matching tops and bottoms are a fashion fad.
Matching sets may not be quite as effortless as a sundress, but they run a close second in this race! So we are all on board with this trend.
Pastel coloured set
Pastel colours are prevalent right now, from high-end to high-street. Give your closet a refresh of trendy and cool separates instead of the same-old cotton T-shirts, skirts, and pyjamas.
What’s more, what’s better than simple separates in breathable fabrics and airy silhouettes with just the right amount of trendy and casual in the summer?
Plain Set
A set that strikes just the right balance of statement and staple, this one breaks the suspected summer palette and is made in sheer organza, silk and cotton.

Stretchy and Lycra co-ordinate really well when teamed with a t-shirt and sneakers for a laid-back look. When teamed with the more formal styles of Lycra, they can add an elegant touch.
Floral print set
This season, coordinating sets can be found in various styles and designs, from classic graphic shorts with pockets to ultra-minimalist shorts with zippers.
There are many different ways that floral printed tops and bottoms can help you achieve good looks in between the various looks that set can put on. Floral printed sets give you a fresh easy-breezy look in summers.
Totally white look
Another good option for a matching shirt and shorts set is to buy a top and bottoms in white colour. Other colours such as green, purple and yellow look excellent too.

If you cannot find a matching colour, consider buying one together and ensure that they will complement each other.
Go for grid print
As previously mentioned, varying the designs can also help to create a great fashion statement. There are two main styles of coordinating shorts – floral print and grid print.
Both have their advantages and disadvantages, depending on your own personal comfort and style. A grid printed coordinated short with a matching shirt is a good choice for a casual weekend outfit.
Don’t forget about striped matching.
For a summer party, a striped printed coordinate set looks great. When buying a matching shirt and shorts set, it is essential to ensure that both the shirt and the shorts are of the same size and fit.

Shorts should not be too tight, as they will show every imperfection of your legs. On the other hand, shirts should not be too loose, as they will hide your curvy figure.
How to style matching shirt & shorts set
Fortunately for us, one of the most common patterns is matching sets. This is a pattern that we positively love and will totally get behind!
When it comes to styling the coordinating sets, there isn’t a whole lot to think about. They’re essentially made to be worn as is, which makes them simple to style.
If you’re wearing a patterned set, try to coordinate your accessories with the pattern’s colours. To make the matching set even more fun, I recommend wearing a fashionable cap, hat, or scarf.

If you do not wish to shop matching sets, then there are many other items that you can mix and match to create your own unique look. You can even go with a long shirt, or even a jumper if you want to take it up a notch!
