My notion of a Spring wardrobe "essential" might not be the same as your idea of a wardrobe essential. With that in mind, I proudly present these must-have orange shorts for Spring! See, ever since I spotted Versace's perfect pairing of sherbet pink and orange, I've had my heart set on finding some citrus-hued shorts - without a designer pricetag, of course - and BAM, just like that, Forever 21 created them. (At least, that's how it played out in my mind.) Life is good.
