Behold the humble jort:

I finally admitted that my thighs will not be fitting these Uniqlo jeans ever again and chopped. I now have... jorts.

Jorts are for throwing over bathing suits. That's it. Or with tanks and loose, breezy t's. They're like summer diapers, you step into them and keep it moving. Why get all fancy? They are jorts! Don't overthink them!

What you need:

Photo 1: Cheap and silly sunglasses, a Revlon hairband, and some Tommy Bahama Island Life perfume ($60).

Photo 2: This black one piece from Ami Clubwear has a dramatic strappy back, sexy with no effort. I liked the rustic effect of this Southern Tide classic leather belt ($60) contrasting with a pirate-y Jade & Jasper crystal skull necklace ($32)

Photo 3: Block out those harmful rays with H20 Marine Defense Green Tea Antioxidant Lotion SPF 30 ($42) for face and Australian Gold Hello Kitty SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen ($9.99) in subtle Sweet Starfruit scent.

A jaunty straw hat to tilt at a rakish angle and these Squander Boots from Cat Footwear ($116) are the finishing touches. These boots are made for walking the boardwalk!

It's August, they'e jorts, take it easy.
