I don't know about you, but I don't have as much patience to put together a fashionable outfit in the summer as I do in the colder months. When I'm dressing for warm weather, I place a higher priority on fit, comfort, and breathability, which tends to rule out a lot of fashion trends right off the bat. But that doesn't mean I want to look like a schlub all season.
That's why I turned to editor Steph Johnson to help with my summer 'fits. And her advice could be summed up in three words—Levi's® jean shorts. Below, she explains why they're a go-to for looking cool when it's hot out and shows us which Levi's® shorts she'd add to her cart this season.
Trend Authority
Want to know which jean shorts the fashion set will wear this season? Just look at Levi's®. That's actually one of Steph’s fashion secrets. This year, "long, baggy shorts are definitely the preferred style for summer," she shares. "The Levi's® Super Baggy Jorts feel particularly on trend."
Broad Selection
Whether you're looking for something traditional or trendy, shopping for a hero pair, or building out a wardrobe, Levi's® has the jean shorts you need. "Levi's® manages to offer a variety of trending and vintage-inspired styles that feel effortlessly cool," Steph says.
Super Versatile
"Just because denim shorts feel naturally relaxed doesn't mean you can’t dress them up!" Steph tells me. How is she wearing them right now? "I love pairing jean shorts with strappy heels and a button-up shirt for a night out or with sophisticated flats and a pretty blouse for a weekend brunch."
A Fit You Can Trust
"My jean shorts need to be stylish, yes, but they also need to fit well so I don't have to adjust them all day," Steph says. And I couldn't agree more. "I love that Levi's® offers extended sizes and a variety of inseam lengths and rises, so I can always find a pair that makes me feel comfortable."
Heritage Credibility
Levi's® has been designing great denim for decades, which is why fashion editors keep the brand's shorts in rotation despite countless other options on the market. "Levi's® shorts have been an iconic staple since the inception of the 501 style," Steph noted. And that's not going to change any time soon.
