Sometimes, less is more. Case in point: short shorts. This abbreviated variety of women’s shorts has stood the test of time for decades and for good reason; short shorts are a cool alternative to women's pants for warmer months, and they look every bit as stylish as their longer counterparts. Of course, "short" doesn't necessarily mean the same thing to everyone, so you'll find plenty of different lengths in our selection, from tiny shorts to classic mid-length styles and everything in between.
Keep It Short & Sweet
Whether you're looking for an athletic pair, women's jean shorts, or something in between, our assortment of ultra-cropped women's shorts runs the gamut from fashion-forward to highly practical. Consider knit lounge shorts for weekends spent scrolling on the couch. For working out, go with bike shorts, brief-lined pairs, or those with side slits for a wider range of motion. Plus, discover everyday options in linen, corduroy, gauze, or with lace or ruffled trim. Best of all? These women's mini shorts come in a spectrum of colors and a multitude of fits, so it's easy to grab a pair that suits your aesthetic.
How to Wear Micro Shorts
Beat the heat in micro shorts for ladies and build your outfit to match. Opt for women's tops in lightweight fabrics and airy silhouettes, like tube tops, camisoles, or cropped tees and complete the fit with breezy sandals. Wear high waisted women's denim shorts with a bralette top or a baby tee and slides or sneakers for an of-the-moment take. Alternatively, low-rise shorts serve nostalgic vibes. Pair them with a mesh top or a basic tank and knee-high boots or flatforms. When it comes to activewear or lounging, try a super-coordinated look and layer a matchy hoodie or sweatshirt over your short shorts for a finish that's equal parts cool and functional.
