How short do you wear shorts?

With nice weather and summer, denim shorts can make great outfits. Girls with nice legs can be seen strutting the streets in them while those who are not comfortable baring their legs opt to wear their shorts with tights. But there's one question that I heard asked, "How long or how short would you like to wear your shorts? Hmmm, for me, I usually wear shorts 2 inches below the pocket. They can be considered short shorts but I'm comfortable in them.

Let us take a look at how these girls wore their shorts.

Fashion Dictionary Made Easy: Capri pants vs. Bermuda shorts

capri pants vs. Bermuda shorts

Which set are Capri pants? A or B?

♥Capri pants ("capris") are a style of pants designed to end mid-calf or just below the calf otherwise known as long shorts or three-quarters.

♥Bermuda shorts are a type of short trousers around one inch above the knee otherwise known as walking shorts or dress shorts.

Both Capri pants and Bermuda shorts are widely worn as semi-casual attire by both men and women during warm weather.

Capri pants were my favorites during my university days. I’d always wear them with sketchers or tennis shoes, mid-riff shirt and accessorize them with a big JanSport backpack. But we didn’t call them Capri pants. We called them pedal pants or three-fourths.

Bermuda shorts became my favorites when I started working and especially after I moved to this country where the temperature is much hotter. I love to wear them most of the times with tennis shoes and occasionally with boots or stilettos.

Oopps!

Capri pants end at mid-calf or just below the calf. Bermuda shorts end around one inch above the knee.
