The Specific Shorts Length Fashion Girls Are Wearing This Minute

When it comes to fashion, Alexa Chung is always on. The perpetual It-girl was recently spotted in New York City’s buzzy Lower East Side neighborhood wearing what can only be described as my ideal urban safari outfit in tonal greens. It’s a little preppy, a little rugged, and totally polished.

The key component of Chung’s look, surprisingly, is a mid-length pair of shorts. They’re a refreshing change from the super short style without wading too deep into Bermuda territory. I’m not quite as leggy as your favorite style stars, so these mid-thigh options can be easily tailored to fit my petite frame.

Obviously, decades on, I’m still feeling the influence of Alexa Chung. So, I scoped out a handful of shorts that meet the Goldilocks criteria. Not too short, not too long, just right. Scroll on to shop the selection in an array of fabrics, including classic chino, denim, and linen.
