CollegeFashionista X American Eagle Outfitters: Day 1

Exclusive Feature

The summertime is full of color — red and pink flowers line the sidewalks, azure waters are always beckoning and reading (CollegeFashionista, of course) on the hammock under the emerald trees can be an incredibly productive way to spend a summer Sunday afternoon. In short, there is never a dull moment during the most colorful time of year, so why not wear an outfit that is as colorful as the season itself?

The American Eagle Oufitters Twill Midi Shorts are the bright and perfect choice for your pair or summer go-to shorts. The soft stretch cotton pants are soft on the skin, and the fabric is comfortable enough for either a relaxing day spent inside or for a bicycle trip down the boardwalk. The cuffed hem at the base of the shorts also provides some extra coverage and makes for a modest pair of shorts. The shorts also come in a range of five colors, with everything from the playful lime green to a more subdued brown, so there is a pair for every Fashionista.

While the lime green shorts are colorful and bright, the color is also a bit more subdued, which makes it perfect to pair with pastel colors.  I wore mine with a pastel purple blouse; however, pairing it with pink chiffon is another way to emphasize the colors while staying comfortable and chic. For those looking for a more muted, natural look, a light colored denim would pair perfectly with the pants, and a colorblocked denim shirt or even a medium rinse jean jacket would be the perfect way to make a bold statement with more subdued colors.

This summer, be sure to check out American Eagle Outfitters for a pair of comfortable, reliable and youthful shorts. No matter how you describe your style, there is no going wrong with a pair of basic shorts. Dress them up or play them down, American Eagle Outfitters has you covered.
