These $40 Old Navy Shorts Are So Good, You'll Want 2 Pairs


As much as I wish I could keep this information to myself, Old Navy's new arrivals section is stocked with incredible summer essentials. Among them are the High-Waisted Slouchy Straight Distressed Cut-Off Shorts, 5-Inch Inseam ($20, originally $40), which made me audibly gasp when I saw them for the first time. Not only is the light wash perfect for summer, but they're a great length that I'd venture to say are not too long and not too short, and the epitome of cool.

When they arrived a few days later, I ordered them in my usual size, 6, and did some serious damage ripping open the product packaging in anticipation. I was rushing so much, I admit, that as I was trying them on, I managed to put my foot through the frayed rips and consequently make them a little more distressed than they were initially. Thankfully, they look deliberately roughed up, but I advise that you move slower than I did, unless you want to give them a little more character.

In the time I've had them - which is a little over two weeks - I've worn them more than five times. I wore them repeatedly during a recent trip to California and am wearing them as I type this because the weather's *finally* warmed up in Minnesota. They are a little bigger than I expected, but honestly, I don't mind, especially because my legs and waist have extra room to breathe.


I know I'm starting to sound like a broken record by how often I say this about Old Navy's clothes, but these shorts are so high-quality that it's hard to believe the price. (Did I mention they're half-off right now?) Not only that, but they're really easy to style. I can picture them with everything from a basic ribbed top, like the one I have on (the Ultra-Cropped Rib-Knit Tank Top, $8, FYI ), to a breezy, long-sleeve blouse.

I highly suggest that you add this style to your shopping cart fast if you want to make 'em yours. After all, the brand's no stranger to selling out of certain designs in record time, and I can attest that these shorts will get a ton of wear this summer, pending I don't accidentally step on the frayed rips again and actually destroy them this time. I should probably buy a second pair preemptively.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
