I'm Ditching My Trousers and Jeans for These 16 Elevated Summer Shorts
Sponsor Content Created With Gap
The minute summer rolls in, I happily toss aside my trousers and jeans in exchange for something light and breezy. Shorts are a warm-weather staple, and it's worth investing in at least a few pairs to welcome the season. Luckily, Gap carries every trending shorts style from baggy denim to pleated linen to vintage cargo, and I want them all. (FYI, its men's section deserves a peek, too.) Each pair of shorts is so comfortable and can be styled endlessly, making them my go-to wardrobe items for all my sunny-day activities. (I'm thinking beach outings, iced-coffee trips, and picnic dinners.) Elevated, affordable, and high quality, these are the 16 summer shorts you won't regret buying.
