1. Mademoiselle Embellished Shorts: Jorts are a summer staple. Added bling dresses them up for a more grown-up, modern look. Paired with a neutral top, a bright purse and a turban for the most fashion forward, you’ll be hitting all the clubs in these chic-y shorts. (via Song of Style)

2. Folklore Shorts in White ($45): Add some flair to the traditional, New England-white shorts with a subtle crochet appliqué. The high waist and booty-short fit will accent all the right places, and the white will show off your oh-so-tanned legs.

3. Wild Summer: Style your cutoffs with an oversized sweater and on-point accessories for a perfect summer night romance. You’re sure to be the talk of the barbecue. Your friends will spend the day asking for all the details… and to borrow that hat. (via Sheinside)

4. Ripped Cutoffs With a Bold Tee: The frayed shorts combined with a loud top and flashy accessories equate a sense of “I woke up like dis.” The look is best displayed at brunch, on a weekend getaway to Mexico or while just lounging on the couch. (via Sincerely Jules)

5. Blazer and Shorts: Another way to dress up the shorts is to pair them with a blazer. The white makes this look perfect for the warm season, and the button down is sure to express just how sophisticated you really are. Bonus points for patterned exposed pockets. (via Be Sugar and Spice)

6. Fitted High Waisted Shorts: Go old school with these perfectly fitted, perfectly high shorts. Worn with a faded, unbelievably soft T-shirt, this look will never go out of style. In fact, we bet your mom has an old pair at the back of her closet you could steal. (via Velvet to Vagabond)

9. Chambray and Denim: The days of frowning upon jean-on-jean are long gone. A thin chambray top paired with denim shorts looks polished, structured and put together. (via Go Fashion)

11. Cutoffs With Tights: So maybe you’re not quite ready to reveal your pale stems just yet, or maybe you’re just trying to wear your cutoffs to an evening event. Either way, tights under jorts are no longer exclusively ’90s attire. (via ASOS Fashion Finder)

18. ’90s Revolution: Now, these aren’t traditional cutoffs, but we’ll forgive them for that. If you weren’t yet sure if the ’90s were back or not, we can assure you they very much are. (via Fashion Vibe)
