Since Im not super happy with my body right now I'm most comfortable in longer shorts but any ideas how to style so I don't look like I'm 60? Pics would be great!

I think the trick to longer shorts is a tailored/more form-fitting top, so something like a fitted blazer over a tee or a scoop/v-neck tank would look nice. Also, I'd get fairly fitted shorts. If you want a looser fit on the bottom, an A-line skirt is probably your best bet.

@honeybear: The shorts I have are fitted but I'm lost in what to pair it with! A looser tank would probably be good

I just got some longer shorts (i used to be a 3 inch inseam kinda girl) and I'm planning on pairing with flowy tops that I've become obsessed with lately. I get them from Francesca's.

@gotkimchi: I like this lady's Bermuda shorts outfits. This one, in particular: http://www.economyofstyle.net/2013/07/st-louis-styles-black-and-white.html
I just scrolled through her "shorts" category, and she has some good blazer/shorts outfit ideas, too. That might get a little hot, depending on where you're wearing it.

I like longer shorts with a wedge type shoe, it elongates the leg.
I prefer a more fitted top, I avoid empire in general.

@chopsuey: lol thank you I still got it

J Crew has a lot of longer shorts right now. Here is one but if you scroll down there are some "you may also like..." Items and there are more shorts there. You can see how they styled each of them.

@SweetiePie: thank you this is exactly what I needed

@gotkimchi:
Glad to help! I just got the Andie shorts in white. I'm returning because on me I don't think they look good (I have short legs and short thighs in particular) but when I saw them online I liked the way they looked and were styled.
