The days are long, sunny and hot! Right about now, we're thinking about adding flowy and flattering dresses to our cart to make the most of our favorite season. One thing we forget about? That trusty pair of shorts we need for throwing on when we just need something comfy to wear around the house and in the garden. As always, Amazon is two steps ahead of us, anticipating our every need. In this case, the retailer slashed the price of the ever-popular Hanes French Terry Shorts. Right now, you can snag a pair for as low as $12 at Amazon.
In case the idea of applying a snail secretion to your skin never crossed your mind, take it from thousands of Amazon shoppers — it's effective! This serum has amassed a cult-like following thanks to its lightweight, refreshing feel and hydrating, rejuvenating effects. Snail mucin not only helps boost collagen and elastin for a firmer look and feel, but it can also gently exfoliate for a smoother texture while also soothing the skin. Reviewers reported noticing everything from a brighter complexion to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and dark spots after using. Good skin care can cost a bundle these days, so to find such a highly-rated product on sale for just $14 is a win in our book.
Just the right length for staying cool while keeping things covered.
This classic top is available in nearly 30 colors and prints. Decisions, decisions! Plus, at just $24 (with the on-page coupon), this is close to as low as we've ever seen this 100% cotton top (it briefly dipped to $20 for Prime Day).
"I love the forgiving fit and the colors," raved one fan. "This shirt can be tucked, untucked, belted or tied. It can be a cover-up, worn with a shirt underneath and left unbuttoned or worn with leggings, shorts … needless to say, I’m having fun with this shirt and have hopes it will last a long time, as it appears sturdy and well made."
As much as we'd love to, we can't put a price on summer comfort — it's just too valuable. That said, 12 bucks for go-to shorts you'll likely throw on once a day from now until Labor Day is a pretty good deal. It also happens to be the lowest price we've seen for these shorts in more than a year.
Now that Mother Nature has given us permission to liberate our legs and peel away our jeans and leggings. But of course, having something to slip into when we're not out and about is imperative. That something shouldn't require a lot of thought — and that is what these shorts are all about. The French terry means the fabric is smooth on the outside and soft on the inside for comfort. To make them even more comfortable, they have an elastic band around the waist along with a drawstring. And unlike the regular (and mega-popular) Hanes Jersey Shorts, these are a bit longer for those of us who like to keep our thighs covered.
17,000 shoppers have already given these babies a test drive and gave them a big thumbs up.
"Long enough for 67-year-old legs (heehee) and very soft and comfy," shared a cheeky reviewer. "They're also slimming! And they are just a little more dressy if you want, because of the cuff. Easy to wash and throw in the dryer."
"These Hanes shorts are very well made," another savvy shopper wrote. "I've had them for probably 4 months and they still look new. I'm a large person, but I feel that the fit is as flattering as it can be and I like that the short legs don't ride up or bunch up at all. They stay comfortable all day long. Maybe part of that is from the length (which I also like a lot)."
Other shoppers think these shorts lack in color and pocket.
"I like the length of these shorts because after a certain age you just don’t want shortie shorts," wrote a frugal fan. "I am now that age. I don’t particularly like the shallowness of the pockets. Hard to put a cellphone in and not worry. But these shorts are nice and weren’t expensive so I also got two other colors."
"Loved everything about these Bermuda shorts: the material, the length, the pockets." shared another shopper. "Very well made for inexpensive shorts. I was looking for comfort to wear around the house. I’ve bought two pair and if there were more colors I’d buy more."
