Go Bold: Wildly Printed Shorts

With temperatures on the rise and the promise of blazing sunshine and intense heat mere weeks away, we can't help but get excited about the style possibilities. What better time than now to sneak a peek at some of our favorite printed shorts? Here, a few we just can't wait to slip into:

We love the brilliant orange blossoms tumbling down these Insight Dream Lover Shorts ($60). The garden print is always right on trend, so these are shorts you can count on wearing time and time again.

If you prefer a more demure palette, these Banana Republic Heritage Print Trouser Shorts ($49.50) will do the job nicely. The global-inspired print, in pale yellow and white, is a masterful partner for a simple slub tee and flat sandals.

What's not to love about these fabulous Winter Kate Lila Shorts ($178)? The print features a procession of marching elephants that recalls Indian history. Pops of eggplant and ivory give it an exotic appearance.

Go for a feistier look with these Lucky Brand Jeans Ikat Printed Shorts ($69.50). The warm palette, accentuated by pops of navy, red, and mustard, is earthy and chic.
