Cute & Cheap: 5 summer shorts we can't survive without

Check these out, too...

  • 6 handbags every girl should own
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
  • Ed. Obsession: INTERN TAKEOVER: Muscle Tees Under $20
  • DNA Mix Up: Little Mix's new album
If you’re like us, you’re stoked for summer for one main reason: It’s finally shorts season! We’ve rounded up our fave shorties for you to spy, below. Want more? Check out the Cute & Cheap page in our June/July issue!

 

The daring knit

Nothing says sassy quite like these vivid shorts with a comfortable stretchy waistband. They are a stylish signature to any outfit: Pairing them with neutral tones lets them take the spotlight, but adding a royal blue necklace or contrasting cardigan will definitely make a statement.

 

 

Seashell Eyelet Shorts, $40, madewell.com

 

High-waist paradise

Bright and bold not your style? This pair channels the classics in cream and black. High waist shorts look great with a shirt tucked in or out. Try a cropped sweater or a sheer top with a tank under it to show them off!

 

 

Suit Yourself Beige Shorts, $38, lulus.com

 

The classic

These clean-lined denim shorts bring stylishly mismatched pieces together with ease, all while flattering your gams with wide pockets on the front and back. The combinations are endless with your basic cutoffs- they’ll tie anything together!

 

 
Denim Shorts, $20, hm.com

 

Funkytown

These striped shorts will blow their socks off! A solid top and simple slip-ons are the perfect background to show these babies off. Match with big gold jewelry for a totally fresh and head-turning look.

 
 
Desert Striped Cutoffs, $20, forever21.com

 

The girly-girl

These short shorts are feminine and light with calm shades of lavender and white. They’re perfect for a daytime date paired with a solid tee and pretty flats, but would look gorge dressed up with nude heels for a night on the town!

 

 

Rose Print Turn Cuff Short, $25, wetseal.com

Hey so I have a YouTube beauty channel, but I want to get better known. Do you have any ideas of how I can advertise it more?(: Thanks hun!

Hey babe!

Do you have Facebook? You could make a separate page for it so that people could 'like' it. Or just promote on your own Facebook page, and post a link. And don't be shy to tell your friends about it, especially friends who might pass it along to other friends! Smile

I know this is an odd question but where can I get a thin blanket? I'm traveling in July and got this really cute bag but it doesn't fit my blanket. It gets FREEZING on planes but I'm also bringing a sweater. Would that be fine? (I'm traveling to Mexico if that helps....) also... Do think this is a good list of things to keep me entertained on the plane? : my phone, iPad, DSi, books (magazines, coloring stuff). Ps I'm loading my iPad with movies... And the bag i got is called Lily Bloom Crossbody Purse Mod Garden Grey BUT I don't have the dimensions of the bag....! Thanks so much!




Hey girl,

If you want a thin blanket, you can always just grab a fresh sheet that you use for bed! Since they're big, you can double them up to use as a blanket on the plane. Those can usually be folded up to a convenient size. Having a sweater will definitely help as well. Also, your list sounds good! Sounds like a perfect combo to keep you entertained! If you're really runnin' out of room, I would just hold off on the cute bag and go for a practical and large bag! Good luck and have a blast! xoxo

THese a re cute, but WAY too expensive! $40 for knit shorts? You could get Soffe ones for $12 at Dunhams. Also, I wouldn't be alowed to wear any of these except maybe the high waisted ones because they are all so short. Frown Girls' Life should post more affordable clothes. It says cheap up here, but if it was, then everthing should be like $20-$25 or less. THanks for youtr consideration
