Cut-offs, jorts, denim shorts... whatever you call 'em, they're a summer essential. I've been living in them as proof by my Instagram. Typically I reach for a distressed version but you do you!

Jorts don't always have to be super casual with a tee and sandals, although I do love them like that. Try dressing them up with heels and a silk tank. This season I cannot get enough of vests; they make the perfect "3rd piece" and instantly tie an outfit together. 

Happy Friday, friends!
