FAQs

Are stretchy denim shorts good for summer?

Yes! Denim shorts with a little stretch are ideal for summer as they keep you comfortable and cool. The added stretch ensures a flattering fit without restricting movement.

Should denim shorts be tight or loose?

If the shorts are stretchy then you can choose a pair that fits you snugly. However, if the shorts lack stretch, you should always go for a baggier fit to ensure you can move around comfortably.

How do I style women’s colored denim shorts?

Denim shorts come in a host of colors. The classic blue wash and charcoal are the easiest to style as they go well with practically everything. For other colors, neutral colors such as white, beige, etc., work well. You can style shorts with casual shoes such as boots, sneakers, and sandals.
