We Wear Short Shorts

I'm not sure if you've noticed, but SHORT shorts are really in-style right now. Gwyneth Paltrow even rocked them at the Iron Man 2 premiere last night.

Shorts no longer scream "camp counselor." Instead they can be a sophisticated approach to the heat. However, let's face it, not all of us have Gwyneth's legs. Short, shorts are NOT appropriate for everyone. But, not to worry, medium length and longer Bermuda shorts are still working this season.

Dress shorts up with great jewelry and high heels or go more causal with flats. However, when wearing a longer short, AVOID pleats and shorts that form bell legs. All this does is add weight to your thighs and butt. Wear a straight leg short that lightly skims the legs and shows off your curves.

And remember, accessories make all the difference. Layer necklaces, wear a scarf - around your neck or in your hair, wear a fun belt, add wedges on your feet, or carry a great handbag to look like a chic woman and not a camp counselor.
