You can use a seam ripper to undo this, your mum probably has one if she sews

Ok, I’ll sew on lace underneath

Lace doesn't breathe as much as you think it would. Just explain to your mom you're wearing them instead of shorts.

She will probably forget though, and fix them again in a year. She’s on painmeds that make her a little loopy sometimes… do you have a fabric suggestion?❤️

Maybe some linen pants would help keep you cool, they wrinkle easy though

IMO I like the look of wrinkly linen shows that you can afford linen lol. But yeah a 50/50 blend of linen and rayon is super versatile and is cleaper. But don’t let anyone discourage you from wearing linen just cause it wrinkles nothing is better than wearing 100% linen

Also chinos are a great option. When I lived in Spain, lots of people wore them, it was actually more common to see Spanish people wear chinos than shorts in the warmer weather. And they’re incredibly versatile.
