Summer cannot be considered summer without the perfect pair of jean shorts. I found these amazing cutoffs at Captain’s Helm, a local vintage shop, and they have been my go-to’s since. They are probably 2 sizes too big for me, but they hang on my hips just right. Don’t be afraid to size up and try on the shorts you’re thrifting because although these look completely the wrong size on the rack, they are the perfect comfy fit.

If you are looking for shorts just like this and don’t have the time to scour the racks for months like I did, I found some retail options. Without being a Frugal Wench, shorts like these cost a pretty penny but sometimes, it is worth it.
