These shorts offer you the look and feel of Winter, but it also offers you the option of either layering with warmer pieces, or using it as your only winter piece for when it's slightly warmer outside in the Socal weather. 

More often than not in the past month or so, the weather has been sunny and warm even though it is the middle of Winter. For those days, you can wear the sweater shorts with a simple tank and some boots for a little more warmth as shown above. Although this looks more like a Summer look, if you're absolutely in love with your new pair of sweater shorts, why wait until it's cold?
