15 Pairs Of Fall Shorts You Can Still Wear When It’s Cold



While fall shorts may not seem out of the ordinary in some climates (looking at you, Los Angeles), the summer-y staple is likely more of an afterthought in most seasonal wardrobes.

Before you're truly stuck with few options to wear outside of winter-proof pants, take your pick from these cute shorts for fall.
