Shorts must be simple and straight with no great volume of extra fabric. Extra volume will make you appear voluminous.
Get your shorts right. Wear the ones of your size and the style that suits you the most. Do not opt the extremes that may prove to be too long, too short, too baggy, too tight, too bright or too plain for you.
Keep proportion in mind when selecting your pair of shorts.
Wide-legged shorts will look better with a longer hem while fitted shorts will look good with Capri length or when hemmed well above the knee.
Solid colors look more appealing and attractive.
Monochromes are a welcome.
Whites, blacks, khakhis, olives are all ready to set the mood.
Go for larger prints. Abstract and graphics will also set the stage. Tiny floral prints can make you appear a bit childish.
Nauticals are in vogue. You can wear white shorts with blue and black stripes.
Avoid embellishments of all kind. Remember that your shorts are short enough to give space to embellishments These extraneous materials like big pockets and embellishments can make your shorts look overcrowded !!!
Remember that while wearing shorts you intend to focus your legs. By wearing overdone shorts you will be inviting attention towards your shorts rather than your legs!
Be experimental when it comes to choosing shorts. Experiment and try new things in shorts. See what suits you well and what appeals your style the most.
Accessorize your shorts with narrow belts, blouses, danglers and handbags.
