Jess’ outfits are often like a breath of fresh air. Every time, without fail, they make me want to step out of my neutral-loving comfort zone. She finds (curates, really) the prettiest outfit-making pieces, and styles them in a way that actually feels wearable for day to day life. You can basically tell by her outfits that she’s a creative at heart, too. So, when Jess decided to take on jorts — yes, denim Bermudas, long cutoffs, whatever you call them — I knew: she’d make me see them in a whole new light.

If you’re curious which ones she styles up, it’s Madewell’s Long Baggy Denim Shorts (also at Madewell in more sizes). This pair in particular feels super wearable no matter which direction you take your outfit.

Jorts For Summer: 6 Fun Outfits For Everyday

I’m all for seeing people rock classic jorts — you know, the ones that instantly bring to mind the ‘90s/early 2000s, maybe paired with a jersey, Kangol hat and sneakers. But, Jess styles them in a way that feels…romantic. Pretty, or even a little bit whimsy. In fact, her version of a tee, sneakers and a baseball hat still carries this quiet charm — graceful in a way, without being too precious. And for summer? That’s especially a look I can get behind. I mean, Jess even has me considering this incredibly pretty floral top from Gap. That’s saying something. Watch her latest video to see the full fits.
