30 Denim Shorts You Will Love This Summer

They’re basically your favourite jeans-just in a sunshine-ready version. Timeless, effortless, and endlessly wearable, I’d be surprised if there’s anyone who doesn’t already have at least one pair in their closet.

The beauty of denim shorts is how easy they are to style. Because they’re such a foundational piece, they work with almost everything and for nearly every occasion. Throw them over your swimsuit, add an oversized shirt, and you’re ready for the beach. Pair them with flat sandals, a simple belt, and a cute top, and you’ve got your everyday summer look sorted. Or, if you’re heading out in the evening, style them with heels, a dressier top, and blazer over your shoulders-and you’ve got an easy, chic outfit for drinks with the girls. Truly, the possibilities are endless.

That said, the market is full of options right now, which can make it a little tricky to know where to start. Personally, I’m a big fan of white and classic blue denim shorts, and I usually go a size up – I like them a bit baggier and more relaxed. I also tend to avoid shorts that are too short, which is another reason I lean towards a looser fit.

So today, I’ve rounded up 30 of my current favourites- both high-end and high-street picks. From classic blues and neutrals to bold cuts and colours, there’s something here for everyone.

And to help you get inspired on how to style your denim shorts for the rest of the season, I’ve also included an outfit idea and a few of my own photos that I hope will spark even more creativity.
