Let’s just say it, shorts are not everyone’s summer staple. Whether it’s the riding up, the awkward length, or just never feeling quite right in them, I’ve officially hit my limit. This summer, I’m skipping the shorts altogether—and not looking back.

But that doesn’t mean I’m sweltering in jeans or hiding inside all season. I’ve found breezy, comfortable, actually-flattering alternatives that keep me cool and feel good to wear. If you’re over shorts too, here’s what I’m reaching for instead.
