Laure

"I think the denim short is really one of my favorite pieces of this summer! Because, first, they are extremely comfortable. You can put them on, something on top, and it looks directly summery. Often I combine it with a fedora hat to complete the whole look.
You can make the whole denim shorts look quite sporty and casual. But when you put a silky top on it with high heels you have an outfit for a night out with the girls!"

"I'm wearing my favourite pair of vintage denim shorts. I got them on my last visit to London in one of my favourite vintage shops of the city: Rokit. They had a great selection of denim shorts and I couldn't resist getting these vintage levi's. Since I got them they have become one of the signature pieces of my wardrobe. I definitely think a pair of vintage denim shorts is essential for creating a great summer look. Vintage shorts have something special difficult to find in normal shops, I specially love the high waist detail."

"I love denim shorts, but I never bought one in a shop, I prefer to cut the legs from old jeans from my wardrobe or from the flea market."

Jenny

Tshirt from Stradivarius, vintage Levi's 501 she cut off, scarf from her mother's closet used as headband, vintage belt, shoes and bag from Zara

"These shorts were a pair of very old jeans belonging to my mother... She bought them at least 15 or 20 years ago and wore them only once or twice because they were too snug for her. Last year I found them in a bag she wanted to throw away and I promptly saved them!!
A pair of scissors and 'zac!' they were perfect."

Myriam

If the weather is a bit colder, do like Kira, and add a thin tight under your denim shorts!

Vintage bustier from her mom, chandelier necklace from mokoya.com , minis shorts from Australia, heels from Possibility Philippines.

"I love wearing shorts because it is very comfortable and easy to wear. You can easily pair it with a tank top and go to the beach. I also believe that having a good pair of denim shorts is an investment. It never goes out of style, some even wear it on winter! During summer, you can always rely on it"

Top, shorts and sandals from H&M, sunglasses from Claire's

Marine has a strong sense of style: the sunglasses are crazy, so she chose to wear a relatively simple ensemble. But is it so simple? The top is actually a dress, and the denim shorts have a perfect faded color.

"I love denim shorts because even if you wear them every single day, you can always make them look different! For a comfy look you can choose some nice sandals and a nice shirt, and if you want to make them look a little bit more 'night out', you just need a pair of nice heels and you're ready to party! Your fav jeans shorts will never fail!"

"Denim shorts are possibly the easiest item of clothing to wear and pretty much go with anything. I love how versatile they are and how they can take you through to every season, from bare legs in the summer to opaque tights in the winter.
I cut the bottom off my AA shorts because i felt they looked too stiff and new, they needed some scruffiness in them which I think I have now achieved."
