In the hot, hot heat, I'm always on the hunt for ways to keep cool. And while I won't deny the power of a perfect little dress to wile away a heatwave, I feel like right now is the perfect time to revisit an often-underappreciated basic: the short. Sure, simple shorts & a tee are fine when you're just chilling on your back deck. But there's a plethora of potential locked up in your shorties just waiting to get out. Like a backup singer who finally gets her chance to headline, think of your shorts as an untapped talent in need of a really good manager.
This summer, make your white cut-offs street style stars by pairing them up with perfect partners. Try an all-white base, then throw a long flowy vest over top. Or pair your white shorts with an on-point top (try a black lace-up bodysuit, tank or tee depending on your comfort level), on-fleek feet (block heels or ghillie ties - yes, please) plus a black bandana and statement shades to help cement your cool girl status.
Not so down with high hemlines? You can still rock shorts by going with the flow. A pair of flowy shorts teamed with a crisp white off-the-shoulder top look effortlessly chic on a steamy summer day.
Speaking of short, time to get back to our way-too-short summer. Hope these next weeks feel extra loooong. Scroll down for summer short outfit inspo - enjoy!

When faced with a hot summer day, looking cool is always the goal. Summer clothes are supposed to be carefree and easy, but so many of us struggle with going beyond what we already know - whether it's shorts and a tee or our fave summer dress. And so, we simply stick with our go-to's and go.
While summer might seem like the perfect time to chill out, may I suggest chilling in something just a little more interesting? Simply add a handful of new pieces to your wardrobe mix- a cold shoulder top, culottes and a romper - and you'll be weekend wardrobe strong. Read on for the 3 outfit combos we'll be wearing on repeat all summer loooong...

Call them floods, call them shpants, call them what you want - cropped pants are back in a big way for spring. Designers showed off loads of cute crops on the spring runways, exposing long-hidden ankles and putting spring shoes on full display. But forget about your old capris (note to selves: never call them capris), the new crop of crops are wider, more flared and way cooler than their predecessors. Whether you're a fashion risk-taker or like to take things slow, there's a pair of crops that's just right for you. For the beginner, try out a pair of cropped kick chinos or jeans - relaxed, slightly flared, and super easy to wear with cute kicks or strappy spring sandals. Ready to go next level? Super wide crops are right on point for spring - opt for loose, flowy crops for work, or keep it structured with black faux-leather culottes for street style domination. The cropped-pant bonus? You'll be totally ready for those April puddles ;)
