For a business competition in high school, are pin-stripe bermuda shorts appropriate?
Would it look cute with a cardigan sweater? (The cardigan sweater is the same color as the pin-stripe in the shorts.)

i'm in my mid-twenties and work for a major hotel chain. our office is upscale business casual and bermuda shorts are pretty popular. they are very hip, but also very appropriate in our corporate environment when treated like a skirt. No bold, beachy colors - earthy tones are great. please wear them with an appropriate heel and classic jewelry - pearls or a dressy necklace and bracelet, etc. i love the idea of a conservative cardigan sweater!
good luck in the competition - if you feel good about what you're wearing you'll be that much more confidant. wear what makes you feel great!

Bermuda shorts would not be appropriate. Wear a knee length skirt wtih a cardigan or a pair of pin striped pants.

No not tacky at all! That really sounds cute! I would totally wear it! Yes if you wear a sweater the same colour as the stripes on your shorts, that would look really cute. I'd totallly go for that!
With some cute shoes ofc!

City shorts are just fine, but with a sweater... What season is that going for? Might want to keep that in mind.

The outfit just doesn't sound business like to me, and a sweater in summer?? Id say find something else.

If you CAN wear it to the beach, you CAN'T wear it to work
[ not in a business office - 'cute' has nothing to do with it. ]
Wear a skirt or slacks with a jacket. Dress for success.
I have judged some high school competitions, and you don't want to lose points because you look like a teeny-bopper.

yes at least wear a sweater with dress pants but never wear shorts or a short skirt cause then you look skanky for a job and you always want to look profesional
