How to style long shorts: tips and tricks

Have you noticed that long shorts, or bermudas, are trending this Spring and Summer? With office dress codes becoming more casual, long shorts are a great alternative to skirts and pants during the warmer months. Plus, they're versatile enough to wear both at work and on your days off.

If you're worried about how you'll look in long shorts, especially if you're petite, here are some tips to help you feel confident and stylish. I'm petite myself, and I love wearing long shorts!

Tips for wearing long shorts:

  • Monochromatic Outfits: Wearing a single color from head to toe can help elongate your figure, making it a great choice if you're petite.
