legs-tips-makeup-exercise We're loathe to admit it (we've been neglecting our squat thrusts at the gym), but it looks like summer '12 is going to be the season of the leg. Sure, there's always been lots of skin on display in the warmer months, but after Angelina Jolie's thigh-high slit at the Oscars, and Anja Rubik's pelvis peep show at the Met Ball, it's clear that designers are upping their game and bringing legs front and center.

While it's easy to disguise your legs in the colder months with slimming and lengthening black tights, there's nowhere to hide come summer.

But fortunately, there are a few sneaky tricks you can employ to make your legs look, well, leggier. We asked a panel of experts to dish their secrets to getting your gams in prime condition for summer's tiniest short shorts. Read on for their best tips, and get ready to step out with confidence.
