Tightwad Tuesday: J Brand Low Rise Cutoff Shorts for a Steal

Dolls, to the left you will find J Brand’s luscious Low Rise Shorts in Bright Red; to the right direct your attention to Topshop’s tantalizing Moto Pink Denim Hot Pants.

Though the Topshop stunners sport a slightly different shade than the blissful J Brand’s; for just $55.00, in comparison to the $159.00 required to add a pair of the original Low Rise Cutoff Shorts to your summer wardrobe, they are le perfect compromise for the girl looking to indulge in the colored denim trend – on a budget!

Tell me, kittens…will you be a big spender and go for J Brand, or be thrifty and spring for Topshop?


Fashionably yours!


Thanks to J Brand and Topshop for the pictures.

  38. I am usually more of a high-waisted shorts girl, but that color and Top Shop? Yes please!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I love the color of the expensive ones. But I agree with "Lucy and Sarah". 50$ for the cheaper version ain't cheap either. Love them, but would gladly shop my own closet first.
