Shorts Are In: 3 Styles to Elevate the Modern Man’s Summer Wardrobe

As the temperatures rise, it's time to turn to one of summer’s most essential wardrobe staples—shorts. Whether you're aiming for casual comfort or refined cool, here are three standout styles to level up your seasonal fits:

1. Jorts (Jean Shorts)
Jorts are a timeless classic making a major comeback. From slim-fit styles to relaxed, distressed cuts or carpenter-inspired designs, jean shorts offer versatility that suits nearly any vibe. Easy to dress up or down, they’re a must-have for any modern man looking to blend edge with ease this season.

2. Tailored Shorts
For a more polished look, tailored shorts bring structure and style to your summer rotation. Perfect for achieving the sleek “old money” aesthetic, these shorts instantly elevate your outfit. Opt for bold colors, extra pleats, or even a slightly oversized fit—there’s plenty of room to get creative and make a statement.

3. Nylon Shorts
When comfort meets cool, nylon shorts step in. Ideal for beach days, casual outings, or just switching things up from denim, their lightweight, breathable fabric makes them a summer essential. Available in a wide range of colors and silhouettes, nylon shorts add both texture and functionality to any look.

Don’t Cut Your Imagination Short
There are countless ways to elevate your fashion game this summer. Mix textures, play with color, and don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone. It's time to lock in and let your style shine.

What They Should've Taught Us About Money in School

Let’s be honest, school taught us about algebra and History, but not how to handle our money. Most Bahamians graduate knowing little about budgeting, credit, loans, or saving, all things we need right away in real life. We should’ve learned how to manage a paycheck, avoid debt traps, and set financial goals. Instead, many of us are figuring it out the hard (and expensive) way.

So, here’s a quick finance tip: start tracking your spending. Even if you make $250 a week, knowing where every dollar goes can help you cut back and save smarter. Build a simple budget, and don’t sleep on credit unions, they often have better rates than banks.

It’s never too late to learn. Whether you're 18 or 38, improving your money mindset now can change your future. Let’s make money make sense for us, by us.

You Good?

In The Bahamas, we love to say, “You good?” but when was the last time you asked yourself that question and really meant it? Life can feel heavy sometimes, even in paradise. Between bills, work stress, family drama, and trying to keep up appearances, it’s easy to get overwhelmed without even realizing it.

Checking in with yourself doesn’t have to be deep or complicated. Start simple: How’s your mood been? Are you sleeping okay? Eating properly? Have you laughed lately? If your answers are mostly “no” or “I don’t know,” that’s your cue to slow down and make time for you.

Take 10 minutes alone. Breathe. Journal. Go for a walk. Talk to someone you trust. Don’t wait for a breakdown to realize you’ve been carrying too much.

Mental health isn’t a luxury, it’s maintenance. So today, seriously ask yourself: You good? And if not, that’s okay. Just don’t stay silent about it.
