Few items of clothing hearken back to childhood - when summer livin' was easy - like denim shorts. However, you're no longer age six, so getting the look right takes a bit more forethought than it did back in the day. Worn too tight or skimpy, bystanders might think you're channeling Lolita in short-shorts; instead, emphasize fashion over sex appeal with a breezy top and statement belt a la Kate Moss. Try a well-fitting tee, funky accessories, and unless you're at the beach, ditch the flipflops in favor of fancier footwear. And lastly, make this your mantra: looser is always better, and if you're worried they're too short...they are.
