It’s not really summer without having a pair or two of cut-off shorts in your repertoire.  I grabbed this pair last summer — two pairs of them actually because when you find the perfect pair, you have to grab two.  They aren’t too short and have the perfect worn-in, boyfriend fit, ideal for more casual days, paired with a simple tee or basic button-down.

And if you can’t find the perfect pair, this is a great tutorial to d.i.y. your own.
