SHOP THE BEST SUMMER SHORTS FOR YOUR BODY TYPE:
Happy summertime ladies! It’s short season, can I get a hooray?! I love wearing cute summer shorts, but they don’t always love me. I’m 5’2 with long legs, a short torso and an hourglass shape. So it’s always been hard for me to find my favorite fit. I finally found a few brands though that are so good at getting it just right when it comes to shorts. I can usually count on Loft, Old Navy and Target. Today I’m sharing some of my favorite cute summer shorts and which body types I think they work best for if you’re looking for your perfect fit too. = ) What’s your body shape? Which of these cute summer shorts are your favorite?
Curvy girls – 1, 3, 5, 6
Longer lengths will help elongate and slim the legs. Flowier styles or ones that have more of a relaxed fit on the legs are some of my favorites too.
Hourglass – 3, 4, 5, 6
I love styles that are highwasited, have wider waistbands and are not tailored on the leg for a little extra room.
Short Legs – 8, 9, 11
If you have short legs, you’re lucky, you don’t have to worry so much about the length on shorts, You can wear most any length, but I say go ahead and go short if you feel comfortable. = )
Long Legs – 1, 10
If you’ve got really long legs and don’t feel like showing it all off, I totally understand. These 2 styles will make sure you’re covered, but they’re still cute and on trend!
Slim – 2, 4, 5, 7
Detailing at the waist like a bow or ruffles will help to define your waistline and add some curves, Prints will also have this same effect.
Love the floral printed shorts!
