It's official: With the gray and miserable days of March behind us, we can finally put a little leg reveal back on the dress-up menu. Yep, pack up that parka (even if it snows...do it!), and make room in your closet for a few pairs of pretty spring-summer shorts instead. And this season, they sure aren't one size fits all. From lace and denim to pleats and prints, a smattering of shorts are showing up on everyone's must-have list, from Madewell and Urban Outfitters to Proenza Schouler and DvF. And whether you like 'em thigh-high or demurely down to the knee, this shorts roundup will definitely get you in the mood for spring.
