The Controversial Shorts Trend Every Cool Girl Is Wearing This Summer

Ready or not, bloomers have made their way to the mainstream and are set to be the shorts trend of summer 2025. I have to say, when they first started popping up last year, I was a little scared, but with time they've grown on me! Thanks to the many, many available options in terms of length, fit, cut, print, and color, they've also become less intimidating and more approachable. One can really make it their own depending on how they choose to style the trend, and we love that. I plan snag one of the below white pairs and wear them both on the weekends in the city and to the beach on vacation this summer—in case anyone was curious! To see and shop all the options I’m loving right now, simply keep scrolling.

Simple and gets the job done.
