The Viral Shorts Trend Taking Over Instagram And IRL
On the cusp of jorts, bermudas, and every tailored short in between, a quieter trend is rising: the return of the white culotte short. Breezy, wide-legged, and cut just below the knee, they're giving refined throwback energy and fashion people are taking note. Gwyneth Paltrow wore a crisp pair on holiday recently, styling them exactly how they're meant to be worn: like you're on the Italian riviera, Pinot Grigio in hand. It makes sense. Fashion is deep in its recycle era. Think: T-bar sandals, printed trousers, even pedal pushers (yes, really). Culottes sit perfectly in that wave of comebacks, offering the nostalgia we love with a 2025 refresh. The new wave is sleeker and more structured - fitted linen, crisp cotton, and even denim versions that feel less 'school uniform,' more 'quiet luxury'. There's something satisfyingly grown-up about them. They float in that space between shorts and a skirt, making them an easy go-to when it's too hot for trousers but you want something a little more elevated than cut-offs. And they're flattering too. Styling is simple: keep it clean and cool. Try a pair with ballet pumps and a white tee or lean into Euro summer energy with leather slides and a ribbed tank. Add a basket bag, and you're practically on holiday, even if you're just heading to brunch or the office. You'll spot them at garden parties, city lunches, and airport lounges alike. And if you're not wearing them already, you soon will be. Scroll down to shop the best white culottes of the season. 1. H&M, Tailored Bermuda Shorts 2.

Dear Abby: My fiancée treats me like her special needs child
DEAR ABBY: I'm engaged to a delightful woman from a foreign country. She's a divorcee, and her 19-year-old son is doing well in college. She essentially raised him herself. Because of some spectrum disorder and ADHD symptoms, her son was apparently a handful. I am healthy, have multiple advanced degrees (including an M.D. and a Ph.D.), and have enjoyed a successful and lucrative career. I have raised six happy, healthy and independent children. I've worked very hard and have a substantial bankroll. My concern is that she tends to treat me like she might treat her son. She asks me (repeatedly) if I'm cold and suggests that I wear more clothes. She asks me if I'm hungry, thirty or tired, and if I should exercise. I don't think she does it maliciously. I think she genuinely cares for me and is expressing her love with these matronly concerns. I have suggested repeatedly that she doesn't need to provide advice on clothing, hunger, etc. — that I'm an adult and have successfully figured out those things for a very long time. She has much less money than I do, and I help to support her. But I cannot continue to tolerate her maternalistic attitude. I have told her several times that I need a lover, not a mother, but it doesn't seem to penetrate. How can I get this woman whom I love to treat me as an adult and not to question my mature decisions? — NOBODY'S CHILD IN NEW YORK DEAR NOBODY'S CHILD: Your fiancée may not be trying to infantilize you. Many, if not most, women who love the men in their lives fuss over them. Because her efforts are not pleasing and are having a negative effect, you are going to have to be more direct in your message, and by that, I mean tell her it is such a turnoff for you that you are considering ending the relationship. Stating it just that way may help the message to penetrate. And if it doesn't, then you aren't the man for her. DEAR ABBY: I have been in a relationship with my partner for 10 years. While the first two years were good, things have slowly deteriorated. For example, we used to go to movies and dinner at least one day a weekend. Now we don't do anything unless he wants to play cards. I'm getting bored with cards all the time. I feel like I'm wasting my life sitting at home with him. There's no excitement. And to top it off, when we do go places, we invariably end up taking my car, and I must pay for the gas and wear and tear. It's getting old. Any advice? — FED UP IN MISSOURI DEAR FED UP: You appear to be the passive partner in this relationship. If you would like to change the balance of power, assert yourself. Because you find playing cards so often boring, and he isn't up for going to a show or out for dinner, go with a girlfriend. I wish you had mentioned why you provide all the transportation, because changing that pattern should be as easy as saying, 'No, I prefer we use YOUR car this time.' Remember, nothing will change unless you change. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
