10 Jean Short Outfit Ideas to Survive the Summer in 2025
Denim is a neutral in my book, so jean shorts are kind of a blank canvas. You can essentially wear them with anything. Pair your baggy Bermudas with a fitted tee and cowboy boots, or find some fun juxtaposition with cut-offs and an oversized top. The possibilities? Endless.
As far as denim trends go, jean shorts are here to stay (and stay and stay, forever) so go ahead and try something new with your favorite pair. And if you need a little creative inspo, we've rounded up 10 can't-miss outfit formulas for spring, summer, and fall. Jorts forever, baby!
A little preppy. a lot classic. There's just something about a trench coat and loafers combo that's both sophisticated and cool. This outfit formula can take you through every season (okay, maybe with the exception of winter)—huge win.
Elevate your go-to graphic tees by giving them a little structure. A belted jean short paired with a slouchy T-shirt is a 10-second outfit that hits every time. And if you want to amp it up a notch, add some heels.
"I just rolled out of bed" but make it chic. There's no need to sacrifice comfort when it comes to your jean short outfits. Just pick a cute sweatshirt and your trendiest pair of boots, and you're set for the day.
I know this isn't groundbreaking, but there's magic in a white tee. And combined with your perfect pair of denim shorts? Chef's kiss. Make this look your own with gold jewelry or maximalist accessories. You absolutely can't go wrong.
Tucked in, open over a bralette, or hanging loose and billowy, an oversized button-up looks so damn good with jean shorts of any style. Make it menswear-chic with a tie or add a silk scarf for a luxurious touch.
I love a good Canadian tuxedo. The key is to play around with different silhouettes and washes—add an oversized denim jacket to short-shorts or mix and match dark denim with light denim.
The easiest way to dress up denim is by adding a fancy little top. You can't go wrong with frills or a trendy tie-front blouse. Try a classic fabric like cotton or level up to silk if you're heading out on a summer date.
Mixing up textures and aesthetics can lead to some seriously iconic outfits. For example, putting together a sheer top and utilitarian jacket with some long jean shorts? Hi, coolest person on the street.
Whether you consider this combo dressing down a blazer or dressing up jean shorts, there's no doubt about it—it's a perfect everyday look. Add some fun sneakers and you're set.
Your perfect transitional look is here. For chilly nights or pre-fall days, toss on a moto jacket and tall boots with your fave shorts. Layering is key as the weather changes, and a jacket is so easy to toss on or take off depending on the temperature.

‘The Peculiar Gift of July': Solace at the Corner of Nowhere
'The Peculiar Gift of July' by Ashley Ream is a charming story that's part soap opera and part vacation on the page. It features a delightful cast of small-town characters who are stuck in ruts, either of their own choosing or due to tragic circumstances. Some of them are even pretty close to losing it all. When a young orphan girl who may have mild precognitive abilities gets added to the mix, things might unravel even quicker or, just maybe, finally start to get better. The Oddments of Ebey's The story takes place in a town called Ebey's End, 'a green speck of an island so far north and west of the Northwest' that folks are in danger of learning the metric system and the Canadian national anthem. It's also known for 'oddments' washing up on shore—notable items of flotsam and jetsam.

Orange Door Releases Mid-Year Playback Report: Most Played Music Videos and In-Venue Trends for 2025 Revealed
RIVERSIDE, Calif., July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — What do a lo-fi beat at noon and a Sabrina Carpenter hit at 9PM have in common? According to Orange Door's latest report, they are not just popular tracks. They are high-performing tools that influence customer behavior, increase dwell time, and drive promotional success inside bars and restaurants. Orange Door, a hospitality-focused music video and digital signage platform used in venues worldwide, has released its 2025 Mid-Year Playback Report. Drawing on more than 100,000 sessions from January to May, the report outlines how curated screen content is becoming a key business lever for forward-thinking venues. Many bar owners believe they know what kind of music their customers enjoy. But what actually performs across different times of day and types of venue often tells a different story. The data shows that venues using structured programming experienced up to 18% longer average dwell times than those running ad hoc playlists or standard television replays. Customers stayed longer, ordered more, and were more likely to notice and engage with on-screen promotions. In the United States, classic crowd-pleasers such as Livin' on a Prayer , Mr. Brightside , and Espresso led the charts. But across all markets, it was not just about which songs were played. It was when and how they were delivered that made the biggest difference. From mid-morning through early afternoon, venues that used mellow acoustic tracks and ambient video loops saw stronger daytime performance and longer table times. By evening, high-energy dance-pop, hip hop, and country dominated. These shifts in screen content coincided with increased drink orders, food sales, and customer engagement. Orange Door reports that over 82% of active venues now use dayparted playlists that align music and visuals with key customer flow times. That figure is up from just 61% two years ago. Advertising content also benefited from better planning. Ads placed directly after upbeat pop or R&B tracks had 26% higher recall than those shown at random intervals. Promo content spaced every four to five minutes consistently outperformed more frequent or irregular placements, particularly in busy city venues. Internal analysis showed that in-venue promotions delivered through screens performed 38% better than static signage or wall posters. And in a recent survey of 800 U.S. bar patrons, 45% said the on-screen content influenced whether they would stay for another drink. 'We've seen that with just a few smart changes, venues can get real business outcomes from content they are already running,' said Ross Vickers, President of Orange Door. 'Screens are no longer just wallpaper. When managed properly, they become part of the revenue engine.' The key takeaway is that screens can no longer be treated as passive or decorative. With tighter margins and growing competition for attention, bars, restaurants, and clubs need every part of the venue to be working. Screen content, when properly managed, becomes a powerful extension of the floor plan. It creates energy, reinforces brand identity, and unlocks incremental revenue. Key findings from the 2025 Mid-Year Playback Report: Bars with structured, dayparted content had up to 18% longer customer dwell time Ads shown after upbeat songs had 26% higher recall rates 82% of active venues now use time-of-day aligned playlists, up from 61% in 2023 Screen-based promotions outperformed static signage by 38% in driving customer actions With fully licensed music videos and purpose-built tools for playlists and promotions, Orange Door is helping venues around the world shift their screen strategies from background content to business driver. From casino lounges in Las Vegas to high-volume sports bars in Texas, the impact is already measurable. To support this shift, Orange Door is offering a free content audit and a customized advertising pack to help venues optimize their screen setup. With just a few simple adjustments, most venues can unlock more value from the screens they already have in place. Media Contact:Andrew Vickers mailto:[email protected] +1 888-679-7422 (USA)
