A little ruffle goes a long way. These ruffle waist shorts gather at a ruffled paperbag waist and cinch with a self-tie belt, turning a summer basic into something special. A crisp white cotton-linen blend and handy pockets keep them practical – wear them with a tucked tee, a simple tank or a matching white top.
Style them with a white crop top for a crisp monochrome look, or a striped tee and sneakers for weekends. Add sandals and a straw bag for the beach. They are cheerful, versatile and easy to pack – a summer favorite that feels special every time.
