Boyfriend Shorts Remix


Denim shorts have increasingly become a difficult item to shop for as I get older. I typically size up so the shorts aren't too tiny in the length but then they never quite fit right. I've been especially intrigued by this Current/Elliot boyfriend style pair and while I'm trying not to shop for clothes at the moment (only apartment related purchases) the Net-a-porter sale is certainly tempting! Here are a few denim variations I'm currently dreaming of wearing all summer long. Come on, how fun is that playful look?

So glad to hear I'm not the only one with the denim shorts problem...still on the hunt for some that fit well and aren't too short! Let me know if you get them - would love to know how they are! :)

I'm obsessed with my boyfriend shorts, but they are so unflattering! I love how you paired them with chunky heels.

So I was scrolling through my reader pretty quickly, and I didn't catch the name of the blog as I started looking at your post. But the outfits you suggest here are SO YOU, that I knew right away. It's great that you have such a defined sense of style.

Playful is my favorite! I love all of the bright colors together, but played down with denim shorts. Gorgeous as usual!

Soooo cute!

Love these, especially the Mulberry top!

Keep calm and carry lipstick.

Lauren (BestTrendz) said...

Love all these, especially the classy look. I wonder how boyfriend shorts would look on me- they seem the type of shorts that only work on a few body types.

Liz - So Much to Smile About said...

Love the playful look! The shoes are amazing! And really, everything here is!

Bettina said...

That oscar top is just stunning, I wish I could add that piece into my closet!

Kate said...

I have such a hard time with shorts, but it's my goal to find some that work for me this summer! I adore this metallic peplum top! Stunning!

Style-Pursuit said...

Despite my best efforts, I don't think my weird legs will ever make friends with a pair of shorts... :o)
BUT, I totally adore the selection and wish I could be able to rock it!

Jen said...

I always love your collages, Alicia! I don't have a pair of denim cutoffs but the "classy" option really has me thinking of possibilities. Gorgeous styling!

Sad that we didn't get to meet when I was in NY last week, but hoping that our paths will meet soon!

I'm so with you -- they're a staple but so hard to find a great pair. These are perfection, and I love your styling ideas -- those blue sandals are killer!
