Best trends for summer

The trend: Short shorts

The trend: Short shorts

Why it works It’s now okay for guys to wear shorter shorts…as long as they’re not too short. Seven inches is just high enough to show off the results of all those squats at the gym.

Club Monaco 7" Maddox shorts, $69.50, at Club Monaco; visit clubmonaco.com
Bonobos washed chino shorts, $68, at Bonobos Guideshop; visit bonobos.com/guideshop) (pictured)

The trend: Ugly sandals

The trend: Ugly sandals

Why it works Sometimes ugly things can actually look good (see: pugs). And this season’s sandals fall into that category: Birkenstocks and athletic sandals are back, whether you like it or not.

The trend: Knotty accents

And what you should avoid

Super distressed boyfriend jeans
This so-called trend is perplexing: Why not just wear shorts? Not attractive.
