Balenciaga's peek-a-boo shorts

They were my splurge-of-the-season. The idea is quite simple, but the shorts are extremely well made. They are essentially double sided silk shorts, with a (sexy) boxer-like lining. The shorts can be worn with the cuffs off, to make them ciel color A-line shorts, but I just love the peak-a-boo effect.
To complete the more or less sporty look, I paired with Ann Demeulemeester's sandals. I saw a pair of Pierre Hardy wedge sandals that would look perfect with the shorts, but I acted too late...
