While Miranda Kerr took her high-waisted black shorts
on a tropical vacation, Lauren Conrad wore hers
out on the town with an Alexander Wang top. It goes to show how versatile high-waisted black shorts are. They can weather extreme heat and go party hopping with you, too!

There are two reasons I'm envious of Australian model Miranda Kerr. First, she's dating and
vacationing with Orlando Bloom and second, she has legs the length of the Eiffel Tower! Now that I got that off my chest, we can move on to her cool, casual style.

I love shopping but I hate being indoors when the weather is so nice outside. A flea market adventure is the perfect remedy to my predicament and I'm always down for a vintage hunt — who knows what treasures I'll find!
I started you off with this
Matiko Iva Sandals ($80) because I love the huarache-inspired cut and the flat heel will keep me comfortable all day long while I scrounge for goodies.

We've all learned it's difficult to pull off high-waisted anything. But
fifthofapril shows us
high-waisted shorts done right. The key is to keep the rest of the ensemble minimal.
