Coloured jeans were almost impossible to find in high street stores few years ago as they haven't caught up with the trend until last summer. Now, most hight street brands carry them in rainbow colours with lower price tags compared to designer brands like True Religion, J Brand and Rag & Bone. However, they can be a little overwhelming, which is why I find the addition of coloured denim shorts into this trend a genius, especially for Malaysia's scorching heat.
Coloured denim shorts can still be bold and fun without the length and a lot less daunting with a peek of colour, particularly for those who are not much of a risk taker in fashion but still want to stay on trend. So, why not take this opportunity to snag your perfect pair during the 1 Malaysia Mega Sale happening now.

The thought of candy-coloured shorts brighten up any outfit got me jumping into the bandwagon; I purchased a pair in yellow from Cotton On. It was great to have a friend shopping with me the other day as I wouldn't be forced into the deal of buying two pairs of shorts when I only wanted one. Essentially, it only costed me RM37.50; what a steal!
The denim shorts was put to test last weekend when I went to Fraser's Hill for a short vacation. I went for horse riding, archery and sightseeing in it and it proved to be very comfortable. No qualms at all about the shorts riding up a single bit particularly after I got off of the horse.
I paired it with a vintage flower print top (rocking the bold print trend at the same time) for an extra splash of colour to enliven my mood.
