Team Mint ArrowWe were starting to think finding the BEST Bermuda short was going to be a true Mission: Impossible, but WE DID IT!! We tried on so many pairs of Bermuda shorts. TONS. Maybe even all the Bermuda shorts and we just kept striking out. We could not find one that we loved, until now. We found super great pairs of Bermuda shorts that we KNOW you’re going to love, too!

Best on-trend Bermudas
These high-rise denim Bermudas are our FAVORITE pair this year. We’ve seen SO many dad shorts gain crazy popularity this spring but unfortunately they’ve all had too short of a length for our liking…until now! These were inspired by their best-selling barrel jeans, so they have mastered that perfect, relaxed fit. Runs TTS and totally lives up to the hype. Just add a tee and sunnies and you’re summer-ready!

Best trouser shorts
You have the classic look of basic denim shorts, but with the cutest wide hems along the waist and knee. This relaxed fit is definitely THE bermuda look this year too. All around super flattering, easy to dress up or down, and yes, they run true to size too. Perfect with everything from a crisp button-down to your favorite tee!

Best for if you’re having a hard time converting to the wide-leg bermudas
These denim Bermudas are perfect for you if 1) you love a classic pair of Bermudas and 2) you don’t super love the wide-leg style, yet. These cutoffs have that timeless, no-fuss look that goes with everything and the structured quality feels so good. Heads up: they do run small, so consider sizing up for the comfiest fit! Perfect for everyday wear and totally worth grabbing before they’re gone.

Best for a pop of color
These pleated linen shorts are chic winners—the kind you can dress up with a blazer or keep casual with a shirt and sandals. The tailored look is WAY more flattering than we expected, and the fit is just right. They’re super high quality and give us European summer vibes! Fair warning: they do wrinkle pretty quickly. It didn’t bother us, but if crisp and polished is your nonnegotiable, just something to keep in mind. Not to mention these have sooooo many glowing five-star reviews too!

Biker shorts
Biker shorts are still in and we could not be more here for it! We love this trend, because it’s like the summer version of leggings! They’re comfortable and casual. They’re perfect for running errands or hanging out at the house without being too hot or sweating to death. Here’s a quick roundup of our faves:
1. The Spanx version is a long-time favorite because they are way more slimming, but they will cost you a few more pennies.
2. These Lululemon biker shorts take the cake for perfection. Thin enough for even the sweatiest conditions (we’re looking at you, Florida 100 degrees 100% humidity!!) but still enough coverage to not look naked, just feel naked (HA). Corrine is 5’10”, so you could go shorter if your legs aren’t as long!
3. These are such a great save option, and since they’re so affordable you might be able to get more than one pair to spread the wear in between washes. In the summer we know all we want is to be comfy and cool, so the more biker shorts the better!
Bermuda Tips
- If your shorts are boyfriend fit, try wearing them with a more fitted shirt to balance out your proportions! You could even tuck in a fitted, feminine top for a more streamlined look.
- If your shorts are fitted, front tuck or knot a fun tee into the shorts to elongate the legs (especially if the shorts are high waisted)! Long shorts tend to cut off your leg-line right in the middle, so emphasizing your waist or lengthening the legs is super important!
- Try a preppy look! Bermudas lend themselves to a more classic style, so try tucking a chambray top (like this one!) into the front of the shorts for a coastal-chic vibe.
- Heeled shoes will immediately make Bermuda shorts look more flattering by tricking the eye into thinking your legs are longer than they actually are!
