C’mon, SD. Show us a little skin! Friday marks the official start of summer, which means it’s time to update your warm-weather wardrobe.

Nothing is more San Diego than bikinis, boardshorts, and flip-flops. But the biggest trend of the moment is shorts—of all shapes and sizes. It seems like every day our inboxes are flooded with emails from the brands we love, debuting new short shorts.

Here are a few styles we called out in our June style page. Think bold colors, floral patterns, and ever-classic nautical stripes. And by the way, the culotte circa 1985 is back.

Tip: A lot of the stores are clearing house for fall, and have marked down tons of items. So keep an eye out for sales at J.Crew, Anthropologie, and more.

Happy shopping!
