Your ultimate guide to dressing for the Short n' Sweet Tour
It’s official: Sabrina Carpenter’s highly anticipated Short n' Sweet tour has begun!
Ahh, it seems like just yesterday we were wishin' and waitin' in ticket queues (and getting major Eras Tour flashbacks), doesn't it? If you're one of the lucky ones who scored seats, you can move onto the fun stuff: planning your best concert outfit yet! (And if not, you can still rock all of these fits just because.)
Here's all the fashion inspo you need to assemble a fit that'll serve that me espresso all night long.
1. Hearts and sparkles
If there's one thing Sabrina loves (and us, too), it's those signature sparkly hearts. Incorporate this cutesy aesthetic into your look by reaching for a sparkly sequin skirt and pairing with a heart-shaped corset or a tee with a heart-shaped cutout. More into accessorizing? Add some shimmer to your eyeshadow look or throw on a cute heart-shaped hair clip!
2. Pastels and bows

Short n' Sweet's visual vibe is all about pastels, bb. (Peep Sabrina's alternate album cover to see *exactly* what we mean!) Opting for a softer color palettes when choosing your fit is definitely key. Popping a matching bow (or two) in your hair will be sure to elevate your look.
3. Babydoll dresses
Babydoll dresses have been a staple in Sabrina's Short 'n' Sweet era so far. She's worn them in nearly every promotional pic for the album and for her *iconic* SNL performance, ofc. But don't get it twisted, we're not saying you have to grab a vintage nightie like 'Brina's for your fit because we definitely don't want you sacrificing comfort for style (and fall weather might call for a few added layers).
To bring the retro aesthetic and sport a look that's fit for hours of dancing, go for a babydoll dress with puffy sleeves in a pastel shade. Chilly night? Pair your dress with white opaque tights.
4. DIY "lipstick kisses" tanks and graphic baby tees
Everyone's been totally gushing over Sabrina's "lipstick kissed" tank top since June, so if you've got a ~taste~ for arts and crafts, we'd definitely suggest making your own! If that's not really your style, don't sweat it. Sabrina also *loves* her regular graphic tops. Throwing on a cute baby tee or tank and pairing it with your fave jeans is still a look that's perf for any pop princess!
Plus, if you want a graphic that's directly related to Short n' Sweet, then you can't go wrong with snagging one at her online merch shop or the merch stand at your venue.
5. White boots
Is it even Sabrina without the trademark chunky boots? TBH, we love her classic white platforms as much as the next girl, but jamming out to "Espresso" in them may have disastrous results (yikes).
If 'Brina's white boots are totally your vibe but you can't hang with the height, then opting for one with a smaller heel or an entirely flat base are your best for feeling pretty *and* practical. Or try a pair of white cowboy booties because, let's be real, a few tracks off of Short n' Sweet give country vibes ("Please Please Please" and "Slim Pickins" say hey!).
