Please note: I do not wear shorts. My girls do...I have reached the age and thigh where I feel a social responsibility not to expose my thighs to the world.
Love winter white. Alabama be damned, I wear it.

Capris make me my short legs look even stumpier. I only know this because I wore them when I was young and naive. I personally love Bermuda shorts, and hate short shorts, both because I feel exposed and because my legs are not my best feature so I look a hella lot better with a little bit of covering. My "short" shorts are still not tiny, and for any ladies built like me (my bottom half is a little larger than the top and I will never have itty bitty legs) I recommend Old Navy and Gap for affordable shorts in different lengths. I think women like myself look better with a little length in the shorts, and a little room. My legs look infinitely smaller this way than if I wear itty bitty shorts.
