Yes, it’s possible to dress up your jorts. Throw on a top with a tad more volume and compliment the look with a pair of sleek saturated sandals.
When you find yourself in an outfit slump, just go for the double denim duo. The addition of a strappy heeled sandal will really elevate the look as will any fun jewelry of your choosing.
