Essential wardrobe essential: frayed denim shorts
The AGolde Parker Long Shorts are a must-have for those seeking a vintage-inspired, comfortable, and flattering denim short this summer. These shorts, crafted from dreamy soft and perfectly broken-in AGolde denim, offer a unique blend of style and comfort.
With a high-rise fit that's consistent with vintage-inspired denim styles, the AGolde Parker Long Shorts provide a modern twist on a classic look. They are longer than typical denim shorts, hitting mid-thigh on users around 5'2" to 5'5", offering more coverage and a relaxed look.
One key aspect of these shorts is their roomy thigh area. While some find the leg opening a bit loose, others appreciate the comfort it allows. However, it's worth noting that the AGolde Parker Long Shorts generally run large, so it's recommended to size down by 1-2 sizes for a more fitted look.
Available in various washes such as "Wheel," "Panna Cotta," and "Swapmeet," these shorts offer both light and medium wash options. Made of 100% cotton denim, they ensure durability and breathability, making them perfect for those hot summer days.
For those looking for alternatives, the Abercrombie Mid Rise Baggy Shorts are a less expensive option. If you're on the hunt for handmade anklet alternatives, consider the Madewell Tiny Pearl Anklet or the Donni Small Pearl Anklet.
In terms of tops, the reviewed outfit pairs the AGolde shorts with the Aritzia Poplin Oversized Shirt. For those who can't find this shirt, the Gap Big Shirt and the Jenni Kayne Boyfriend Shirt are recommended alternatives.
The reviewed item was a size 26, which is larger than the author's usual size in AGolde jeans. Nevertheless, the shorts still offered a comfortable and flattering fit.
To complete the look, accessories such as the Jenny Bird Medium Tome Earrings, Mejuri Beaded Ring, and Amazon Claw Clip were featured. A Washable Canvas Tote was also mentioned, although its price was not specified.
