Longer shorts are having a MOMENT and honestly? As someone who’s almost 40, I am fully here for it. 🙌 The 7–9” inseam is my sweet spot this summer — enough coverage to feel put together, still totally cool and breezy. Board short length on longer legs just works, and I’m so glad brands are finally catching on. I’ve been loving the options from Anthropologie, Gap, Free People, and Lululemon right now — denim, chinos, linen, you name it. These are the shorts that actually hit mid-thigh instead of… somewhere awkward. You know the ones. 😅 Whether you’re packing for vacation or just want a cute summer look that doesn’t require constant adjusting — longer shorts are the move.
