Jean Shorts

As summer's winding down, I'd like to talk about my personal favorite article of clothing that girls wear in the summer: Jean Shorts. The right pair of jean shorts will turn heads anywhere, but that can be said about a lot of clothes. The reason why jean shorts are my favorite is because of how many different tops and shoes seem to pair perfectly with jean shorts. Not only that, but there are also variations of jean shorts that offer different looks.

Goes great with "flow-y" top

Now, there are some things to keep in mind when picking out a pair of jean shorts to wear. First off, they have to be tight and not too long. Now, that doesn't mean that half of your butt cheek should be sticking out either or you get red lines on your legs because the shorts are cutting off all blood flow to the legs. They should be reasonably tight and a good length. Guys do like the really really short jean shorts, but that might come off a little slutty, so I'll let you decide where to draw the line. (Short is hot though)

I personally love it when the pockets peek below the actual pants, but only ever so slightly. That girl is rocking it in the picture above. Which is also a great picture to talk about the kinds of tops to wear with jean shorts. Flowing tops like the pictures above and below work really well. Or even just a tank top works well too.

On another note, I wouldn't deviate too much from the blue color. I am a huge fan of the faded blue jeans color that are shown in these pictures. I wouldn't get too dark with jean shorts.

High wasted jean shorts look great with certain outfits too. They add a little bit of a throwback feel so when picking an outfit keep that in mind. I'm not a huge fan of this girls black top, but I picked this picture as an example of how to tuck in the front of your top into the jean shorts for a great summer look. These jeans also bring up a good question. Frayed or folded? Answer: Definitely frayed. Just make sure the ends aren't ridiculously long.

Bottom Line: Jean shorts are hot.

Experiment with some outfits and see what works for you!
