Matchstick bermuda shorts

Every summer, don't you find that you have one piece of comfy clothing that you keep coming back to? My go-to shorts this summer are these J. Crew matchstick bermudas. I hope Alex likes them because I pretty much wear them every day (including while I'm typing this).

I wear my doc. scholl's wooden clogs day and night. The bf thinks I look like a substitute teacher, but I think they are summer.

Simply Mel said...

Too darn cute! And yes, my summer essential this year...a very cute little cotton jersey wrap dress!

kaitli said...

pssst...I think you missed a word (pretty wear them). It's Monday, you're forgiven ;)

They're absolutely lovely though.

those are cute! I know what you mean about comfort clothes you keep going back to. I have a pair of light purple bermuda shorts that I wear all the time in the summer.

i'm currently wearing my jcrew cargo shorts that i've sported for 3 summers now. i have 2 pairs and i even bought my sister a pair i love them so much. they're my go-to shorts. i told my husband, "i hope you like these, cause you're gonna be seeing a lot of them!" i think i'll cry when they wear out. pam

I bet they look fantastic on you, doll. My khaki J.Crew bermudas are getting a TON of use.

I love sarong-style skirts in the summer. So flowy and light.

Genius. I live in J.Crew year-round. I believe they make the perfect go-to anything!

Cheers.

Polly R said...

They look nice.
Yes I agree about the one piece of comfy clothing. This summer it's all about my stripey t-shirt! :)

I think my legs would look too pinny in those but I admire girls who can carry them off. I'm a Capri pants and scarf kind of girl. Think Audrey Hepburn on a bike style - without the bike.

I love those shorts! I'm like you, I have several pairs of shorts but only one favorite.

Anastasia said...

two summers ago I cut a pair of skinny jeans to the knee. Now I'm really discovering how amazing jeans this length are! This jcrew pair looks great. I love the dark wash!

Ally Redhead said...

I love anything from JCrew. We don't have it in Canada/Vancouver but their website is amazing and they ship up here thankfully! Such cute shorts~ very stylish!

Kristin said...

I've been living in bermuda shorts since April!

Good Girls Studio said...

So cute! If I wore shorts, they would be mine...just try & get me out of my breezy skirts :)

eunice said...

that's a great pair of shorts!! I wish the weather here was warm enough for shorts...love your blog joanna! :)

these are so cute!!

K @ Blog Goggles said...

Haha, I have a similar uniform - overdyed Zara jean shorts. Love them.

Federica said...

Great look!

lolly-jolly said...

oh these are so my type! But i don't think they fit me good as here! unfortunately that short to the knee is not for my legs... shorter or longer is better to my body:)

The Lil Bee said...

Yep. Usually it's some sort of cotton skirt from AmAp and a white tank with flips. Paul says things like, "Oh, is that a new skirt?" every time I put it on, just to mess with me.

frosty said...

They look great! Comfy and chic...too bad for me we can't get them in London:)

Kristin said...

These are great -- and I love that you can wear them with pretty much anything. My go to this summer? gold flat sandals. I wear them pretty much every day!

GLSD said...

they look comfy...but i love jcrew. i just got a pair of white skinny jeans from jcrew. i also have a pair of shorts like these from guess. enjoy your summer! XX

Chessa! said...

I'm not a huge fan of shorts but I love my matchstick shorts...I have a pair from Club Monaco that I adore and wear them ALL the time.

Not your goddess said...

I bought a pair of shorts from Zara last year but never got to wear them as I 'fell' pregnant. This year I'm wearing them every day - that is when I'm not wearing my emami dress (it helps that we're having a great summer!)

Naomi said...

I think Alex would love you if you wore a trash bag. It would never look sexier;)

Cute shorts btw. Slip some wedges on and your ready for evening.

Bunny, THE PARIS HOUSE said...

I have been wearing a lot of Bermuda shorts this season. These are so cute. I'm going to pick up a pair on my way to Saratoga Springs tomorrow!!

Gillian said...

I'm sure Alex is smitten with you regardless. Get it, SMITTEN LOL
Of course you do. Love the shorts cutes!!

Layolacrayola said...

I just got a pair of similar berms from mango( a spanish label). Its uber comfy, i could almost live in it! :)

Cox said...

My younger sister bought a pair of Citizens denim bermuda shorts a few summers ago. I was smitten, I needed to have my own pair but was unable to find the same wash. I eventually gave in and bought a lighter wash that I wear during the day. Now in the summer heat at night I still wish she would give up her pair to me!

Pumpkin Petunia said...

Love those shorts!

I am very guilty of wearing the same things over and over. My husband's gentle reminder is always something like "You like those shorts, huh?" with smirky grin. Hey, after 15 years, at least he notices! ; )
