Cutoffs vs. Boyfriend Shorts


The warm weather brings with it a flood of cutoff shorts to our fair streets.
The perfect pair of cutoffs is that rare thing — distressed and faded just enough in just the right places.
You could purchase the perfect pair, like Current/Elliott’s rolled, stretch-denim cutoffs, for $187. But then you'd be that girl who paid $187 for shorts that look more fit for rubbing Pine-Sol on floorboards than serving as bottoms.
Style.com thinks paying $187 for those shorts is "nuts," too (way to go, Style.com!).

Also, the ideal pair of cutoffs is not bought, but salvaged from ugly old jeans one no longer wears. My mom taught me that trick when I was about 12... I think we all know it..
However it's difficult to fashion the perfect pair of cutoffs all on one's own.

But perhaps the bigger question of this most pertinent matter is why we are still trying to cut off our shorts? This was the big trend in bottoms
last summer. I think it will always be a classic trend.. but it's nice to mix it up.. soooo Shouldn't we move on and latch onto a different trend?
Like BOY FRIEND SHORTS! I absolutely love them!
Isla Fisher is seen here in PRVCY Premium denim boyfriend shorts... great look for the summer, dressed down, fancied up... works all around.
