Rocking Those Cotton Shorts When it gets extremely hot outside, nothing can beat cotton shorts in terms of comfort, as they strike the perfect balance between the proper ventilation and coverage. And before you start shopping for those perfect cotton shorts, we offer you to consider the most popular styles and lengths that work for different body types. To begin with, you just can’t go wrong with mid-waist cotton shorts. With their inseam of about 15-20 centimetres, these shorts look flattering on everyone, revealing just enough leg to keep you comfy while also providing enough thigh coverage to prevent you from feeling too exposed. Moreover, they can be easily dressed down with flats and basic tees for beach days or fancied up with a pair of heels and a luxe silky top. Petite gals just can’t go wrong with mini shorts that can do a fantastic job of lengthening your body visually. Just avoid horizontal stripes or huge prints because those can make you look wider than you actually are. If you’ve got a longer waist or torso, you can try high-waisted shorts with tops tucked-in to achieve that leg-lengthening effect. Plus size? Go for mid-length shorts in a thicker fabric with a side zipper that will instantly smooth out bulges. By the way, heels and wedges in nude can also help you appear longer and slimmer. All that being said, if you’re a regular-height gal and looking for mini shorts but desire just a bit of modesty, you can opt for 20-cm shorts that land just a few centimetres above your knee. You can experiment with different rises from low-waist to high-waist cotton shorts that are universally flattering for any body height and shape. Yet, if you’d ask us to pinpoint the cosiest and the most flattering style of cotton shorts, it would definitely be a pair of elastic pull-on cotton shorts that can be worn when you are longing at home or working out for an active day. Lastly, let’s talk about shorts that can take you from day to night. In this respect, nothing can beat mom cotton shorts or Bermuda shorts that are especially trending this season. Both styles answer the call for attractive and modest shorts that can flatter any figure type and be worn at outdoor parties, family gatherings, and even the workplace.
