I would cut them shorter as that length is terrible on my body type. Then I’d pair them with some high top Vans, a ratty band t-shirt tucked in the front of the shorts a little, and a black and white flannel.

I envy everyone who can pull them off haha. Short inseams look...off on me? Summer's rough for me because short shorts make my hips look narrower and I'm also like 90% leg because of my height.

I think I look really good in hiking shorts and high-waisted linen shorts, but moreso in a camp counselor kind of way, and I also wanna pull off an alt look too without boiling in jeans. Someday I'll figure it out!

Love those ideas! Lycra shorts + old band tees/tanks are great when I go jogging.

Thinking about what works with my linen and hiking shorts, I think it's the high waist and the wide leg so it's still leggy (but like 75% leg instead of 90%), but creates an hourglass shape around the hips.

Cutoffs tend to be really form-fitting, so maybe I need to find a pair of denim shorts with a wide leg. Maybe I'll still look like a camp counselor after that, but screw it. Goth camp counselor. 🐈‍⬛ ⛺

I just saw these advertised in my inbox yesterday, I was surprised to see them again here!

I'm not sure what I'd do with them though, I think they'd look too unflattering/masculine on me for my taste. But I really like the embroidery and laced sides. Maybe a top with laces could pull the outfit together? Or one of those tops with extra straps, my favourite are the ones that make a pentagram out of them 😈

I feel like just a T-shirt would work too, for a more casual and less "goth" look. Personally I'm trying to get away from them because I used to wear them too much and I'm leaning towards more feminine clothing these days, but I think something like a band shirt could match the vibe of these shorts as well, if you're into that sort of thing.
