Shorts are an essential part of summer dressing, but it can be challenging to strike the right balance between overly casual denim and matronly billowy shorts. While on the hunt for the perfect summer shorts, we’ve come upon what we’re dubbing the “vacation short.”
Essentially, comfy shorts that are tailored and elevated, the kind you would want to wear on a European vacation. Pair them with a nice top and chic sandals to wear out to dinner or dress them down for a day spent running errands. The high-waist, A-line silhouette looks good on everyone and is incredibly versatile.
Below, we’ve rounded up 11 gorgeous vacation shorts that you need to incorporate into your warm-weather closet rotation. While we’ve found options at a range of price points, this style is decidedly expensive-looking. Pick up a pair for yourself and take your shorts vibe from childlike to sophisticated with minimal effort.
