Hot for summer: Jumpsuit shorts

At first we thought maybe this was one of those crazy looks that only celebrities could pull off. But, after witnessing similar outfits in the real world, we've been pulled over to the dark side of jumpsuit shorts -- also known as jumpers, rompers or playsuits.

The downside of this style it looks best on those who are genetically blessed with long legs. If you're stumpy, this may not be the right look for you -- or at least not without the addition of a 4 inch pair of heels to the outfit!

Celebrities have been rocking jumpsuits for a while now -- think Mary Kate Olsen, Rihanna, Karolina Kurkova and more -- but if you weren't sold on the look, we think summer is the perfect time to give it a try.

Jumpsuits are light, and comfortable, which is perfect for boiling mid summer weather! Plus, they transition easily from day to night.
