The Y2K era has dominated the sartorial food chain in recent years, from baguette bags and charmcore to crop tops and flared jeans. While we’ve enjoyed adding these items in abundance to our wardrobes, there’s a new girl on the block who deserves our coins even more: the jort. Otherwise known as jean shorts that hit just above the knee or lower, the bottom has found its way to the top of our FYPs (once again), after taking over last summer. To no surprise, style stars and designers alike have cosigned jorts as the official it-piece to have in your wardrobe, from SZA and Hailey Bieber to the runways of Etro and Fiorucci during Milan Fashion Week’s Spring 2025 season. And as with many other trends, the denim style dates back to the early aughts, with stars like Beyoncé having donned skinny jean jorts on many occasion and Madonna’s casual looks often defined by long, oversized menswear jorts.
It’s True—Fashion People Are Swapping Their Foam Flip Flops for This Elevated Alternative
While I’ll always have a soft spot for a classic foam flip flop in the height of summer, I can’t deny that some styles skew a little too casual for anything beyond the beach.

Was there an expectation for you to attend higher education? Did you participate in any form of higher education? If yes, how did you pay for it?
Education was a very high priority in my family. My parents are both highly educated and there was always an expectation to earn a four-year degree. There was also an expectation to attend graduate school at some point, although there was less of an emphasis on a graduate degree than on a bachelor’s degree. I have a bachelor’s and master’s degree, both in public policy. Because of how much my parents prioritized and valued higher education, they paid the full cost of attendance for me to attend college and graduate school.
