We’ve spotted a recent trend on celebs like Meagan Good and Beyoncé – cut-off or cuffed denim shorts worn over tights.

No doubt, another punk rock hit from the 80s.

Are you feeling this look? Does it depend on the rest of the outfit, like accompanying shoes?

Meagan rocked the look with sheer black tights and thigh high black boots, whereas Beyoncé wore a loose cardigan with opaque tights.

British singer Lily Allen is a repeat offender:

My personal take is that it’s cool, as long as the rest of the ensemble is kept pretty simple and classy. It looks good paired with booties, high heels, or even thigh high boots.

The key with the often outrageous 80s decade is not to necessarily replicate the looks, but update them into a more contemporary style.

So join me in happily dusting off those shorts from your summer wardrobe, or cop a new pair from DrJays.com/DJPremium.com:
