figure-flattering. The Bermuda short is making a comeback!

Flower pendant necklace - $59
Look 2: Petite
Model: Megan
Store: White House I Black Market
Tip: If you are on the shorter side, it's best to wear a shorter length of short to show off more leg. Shorts that hit at the knee can make you look shorter than you are. Also, a little heel can provide some added length.

Look 3: Work Appropriate
Model: Corvet

Tip: If you carry your weight through the hips/thighs, it's best to wear a neutral color on bottom and a brighter color on top to draw the eye upward. Neutral colors are also best when wearing this look to the office.
