One thing I struggle with during the sweltering summer months in the South is finding stylish shorts. Although I wish it were possible, denim cutoffs just aren't appropriate for everything. I recently found these metallic French Connection shorts on sale and loved the fabric so much I picked up the dress version too {links to both below}. I'm also looking forward to wearing them with tights and a leather jacket in the fall-- so definitely worth the money.
