Getting dressed is a lot of fun. Wearing something that makes you feel confident, comfortable, and chic is a great way to start your day off right. But in the summer, weddings, parties, and other events can get a little stressful. holiday When I think about it, my everyday style is centered around one thing: ease. Despite everything else, I’m on the hunt for the most laid-back pieces that will seamlessly blend into a variety of styles, keep me comfortable as the temperatures rise, and top it all off with style. It may sound like too much to ask of one item, but these linen-blend pull-on shorts from H&M have proven to be up to the task.
As these are the high street brand’s bestselling shorts, I thought it was about time to find out what all the fuss is about. And honestly, I see the appeal. Featuring a comfortable elastic waistband, adjustable tie waist, and lightweight fabric, these shorts are perfect for summer. For reference, I’m about 5’2” tall and chose a size small. I’ve always been a fan of longer shorts, both for the ease of wear and the elegant edge that comes with having the shorts a little closer to the knee. The linen blend fabric is lightweight enough for the hottest days and features a turned-up hem, the perfect detail to add a touch of luxury to a high street piece. As soon as I tried them on, I could picture a variety of outfits, from shopping days in the city to relaxed holiday looks. Dressing up this summer will be a whole lot easier with these two pieces.
