Now that the weather is turning nice here i am curious... What length shorts do you most often wear?
(if you only wear skirts then apply that length)

Re: what length shorts do you wear?

  • I have a couple of shorter pairs (3 inch inseam) but find them harder to wear now that I have ds, with all the bending and such. The rest are Bermudas and one pair of mid thigh I just bought from target that I really like.

  • I wear mid thigh, not because my legs are banging hawt, but because I have really short legs and most longer shorts make me look kind of squat.

  • I usually wear capris, but I'm thinking of going a bit shorter this year. It's just so freaking hot here.
  • I usually wear bermudas or mid thigh. I like bermudas better but i get so hot.

  • I voted mid thigh, but this year I'm pregnant and can't find maternity shorts I like so I bought capris.

  • Short or mid-thigh.

  • I voted SS. I wear capris, mid thigh, and short (for when I'm at the house) all on a frequent basis. Out of all of those, I'm probably most comfortable wearing capris even though its sofuckinghot in capris when its 90 out. I'd be more apt to wear shorts if I could lose some weight :D

  • Ss. I wear mid thigh (heck Bermuda shorts are mid thigh on me--I'm tall and long legged lol) to pick up the kids from school/appointments and wear short shorts to the beach and pool.

  • 3/5 in inseam. I look ridiculous in bermuda shorts.
  • I am fundamentally against shorts thanks to my day glow white legs. If i have them on ther are athletic shorts or mid thigh.

  • ss here - I love bermuda cut shorts and slightly shorter than mid thigh shorts

  • For awhile I only did knee length or capris because I was self conscious, but then I decided eff it I think I look better in mid-thigh. 
  • I chose shorter than mid-thigh but I really need to get some that are an inch or two longer because I feel like they would be more appropriate. I did just fake-tan my pasty whites so I'll feel a little better wearing anything now :P
  • I hate shorts.  I feel really uncomfortable in them and never liked how they looked even in high school.  I can never find capri's I like.  They are always too tight on my legs.  I wear skirts in the summer.  They are light and breezy and soooo much cooler than pants.  They also help cover my thighs which is good for everyone's sake!

    I refused to wear shorts pre-baby/ all of my 20's because I didn't like how I look in them or my fat legs. Now that I am in my 30's/post baby, fatter legs I rock shorts all the time. I usually do above mid thigh shorts.

    I wear 3 or 5 inch inseam. I don't look good in Bermuda shorts. I do wear capris also.

  • I wear mid-thigh length shorts, capris, and knee length dresses.

  • mid thigh, bermudas but I am tall so they don't go all the way to my knee.  I like the idea of capris and think they look good on other people, just not me.
  • Once I get my varicose veins taken care of, I will do Bermuda style. Until then it's capris. My veins are pretty bad, no person should be subjected to that!
  • I wear them short. But like skirts better in hot weather.

  • Capris or dresses for me. The shorts I own are short however and I'll wear them around the house or on a very casual day.
    Hallelujah, it's a miracle, I have children AND a signature!
