8 Adorable Paper Bag Shorts ...

Last summer, I thought nothing could be cuter than a romper… but I might have been wrong, because this summer, all of my favorite shops are awash in super-cute paper bag shorts! They’re completely adorable, and versatile. You can add a lacy sheer blouse and oxfords to dress them up, or pair them with a graphic tee and Converse high-tops for a fun, flirty, casual look. If these shorts sound too good to be true, they’re not… have a peek for yourself! Here are 8 adorable paper bag shorts.

Oh, shorts, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. One, your sweetly ruffled waistline. Two, the gold button to cinch my waist. Three, your neutral color, so I can wear you with anything. Truly, there are more reasons to love you, but I’ll stop here for fear of spending too much time talking about you, and not enough time wearing you!
