PIPM: Pretty in Pink Megan: Daisy Dukes ...

Daisy Dukes ...

You guessed it; I have succumbed to yet another look that I swore off. I'll be honest, I used to think cut-off jean shorts (or jorts for lack of better words) were only appropriate for "white trash" parties in college. Yesterday, I bought my first pair of "jorts" and I am really liking them!

I purchased these True Religion Keira Shorts:

I was inspired by none other than the mean girl of The Hills, Kristin Cavallari:





Here are some other jean shorts that I like:

J Brand Cut-Offs

Genetic Denim Cut-Offs

Levi's Cut-Off

And, as always, how I would wear the look:

{Shorts Siwy Camilla Cut-Off shorts, Tee T by Alexander Wang, Tory Burch Messenger bag, Rebecca Minoff Mini Bag, Pour la Victoire Nude flats, Cocobelle suede tie thong flats}

I love her in the white shirt and jorts with the camel belt. Such a great look! I will admit that I'm not a fan of the jorts look when the pocket shows out the bottom - too Britney Spears.

I have always been true to cut-offs. Not all jorts are created equal, but there's always a time and place for the perfect pair of daisy dukes! I'm really liking the trend of tucking a button-down shirt into them with a thick brown belt! Super cute!

I love kristen's outfit with the belt and white t!

I wish I had the legs for these! Really cute!

I'm ashamed to say....I still have some jorts from just 2 years ago. And yes, I wear them, but more casually. I really like the pic of KC in the white T. That's probably the look I'd try this summer. I wish I knew what kind of sandals she has on in that pic. Any idea?

Whitney Port wore these like every day last summer and she always looked so cute!

I had the exact same dilemma deciding whether to embrace the jean short trend ... I ended up giving in .... but I noticed many girls busting out their old too tight/too short pairs from the 90s .... so I made a little "How to" and more importantly ... "How-To NOT" wear the Jean Short trend. Saw the post ... thought maybe you would get a kick out of it ;)

To Jort or Not To Jort ... That is the Question

Not going to lie, I used to wear cut-offs all the time during high school and college. During law school I decided they were trashy (which was really code for I got too fat to wear them). The cut offs you posted look a little bit longer than my old Abercrombie ones though, so I may have to try them out! I definitely wear them casually with a comfy shirt and cute sandals.

I like how you styled the pair you bought. However, I think Kristen's short shorts with the pockets showing are trashy. Like barefoot Britney in the bathroom trashy.

I think jean cut-offs look so cute in the summer! I bought some for Lil P but haven't taken the plunge myself although I am tempted--haha!
And BLECH I can't even stand the sight of Kristen! I can hear her gravelly hung-over-sounding voice right now! :D

I'm been toying with the idea of getting a pair of cut-offs. Like the way you styled them- and with a button down and belt it would be a cute outfit for a casual lunch with friends.
