Do: Basic, casual, midrise

First of all, keep in mind that you want to find something that fits your trouble spots. So, if your thighs are bigger than your waist, you need to look for shorts that fit those properly, otherwise you'll end up with pulling and gapping -- basically, they'll look like they don't fit and will only bring more attention to the area you're trying to disguise. These are a great, basic style and they come in all kinds of sizes: Old Navy Women's Classic Rise Twill Shorts $19.50.
