Dare to bare this summer in ELLE's pick of the hottest summer shorts heading for a high street near you. Choose from tailored preppy looks (very Chloe Sevigny) to this season's must-have, high-waisted style. If you're feeling brave team with a dash of fake tan and gladiator sandals, or play it safe with a pair of tights; and if you want to rock the trend for work, steer clear of bum-skimming hot pants and opt for chic knee length styles - towering heels essential. This is the coolest way to work your wardrobe for summer in the city...
