Summer’s Must-Have Shorts

Memorial Day is the unofficial kick-off to summer and besides a bathing suit, nothing says summertime like a great pair of shorts. I know not everyone loves shorts like I do, but some days you just have to wear them. It gets so hot and humid here in Alexandria and let’s face it: not all outings are meant for a dress.

This year we have the largest selection of shorts we have ever had. It seems like in years past everyone came in looking and we never had enough, so we decided to make sure that nobody would leave disappointed this year. Of course, we have denim shorts, and after years of buying all sorts of cut-offs, we realized the Parker from Agolde is just the best option around. As a result, we have it in lots of colors. We also got a longer style, the Bristol, for those who want a little more coverage, along with a version with a finished seam.

Last year, before we carried Apiece Apart, I bought a pair of their drawstring shorts and wore them all the time. So, when we started carrying them this year I knew we had to stock up on their shorts. They are my absolute favorite. We have other great casual options from Xirena, Isabel Marant, and Ulla Johnson.

If you need something dressier, we have some great cuffed versions from ALC, Tibi, and Veronica Beard.
Come in and shop our selection and you’ll even find some styles are already marked down from spring.

Owner | The Hive and The Shoe Hive

I spent the first part of my career as a copywriter who helped elected officials brag about their support for entrepreneurs. Then I decided to get off the printed page and do it myself. The Shoe Hive made a splash on the fashion scene in Washington, and was named the region’s best shoe store in its first year. Fourteen years later, I have tripled the store’s size and also opened a sister store, The Hive.  At The Hive, we offer clothing lines that are sophisticated and approachable like Rag & Bone, Tibi, Raquel Allegra, Ulla Johnson and Veronica Beard. We have tried to fill our racks with clothing you will want to wear all the time, elevated basics that are worth the investment.
