The best shorts for petite women, as chosen by a 4'11" fashion editor

Is there anything worse than trying to pull an outfit together when it’s 30-plus degrees outside? Well, let me one-up you because, in my opinion, there is one thing that makes it just a little bit harder — dressing for said weather when you stand at just 4’11”.

As any petite person undoubtedly knows, the difficulties that come with dressing shorter proportions can at times feel overwhelming. Believe me, even as a fashion editor, I understand this feeling all too well and it often becomes even more present on mornings when I can see the sun beating through the window, feel the fan coming at me full blast and when, once again, I find myself staring into my wardrobe questioning what on earth I’m going to wear today.
