Get a good tan, tan legs look thinner. And get some shoes with a wedge heel, longer legs are thinner looking. And the best way to make legs look thin is to get thin legs by exercising. Try these:
Lunge This exercise works the quadriceps (muscle of the front upper thigh).
(1) Stand with your feet together, keeping your head up and looking straight ahead.
(2) Take a long step forward with one foot, making sure this leg is at a right angle (don't let your knee bend in front of your toes), and bend the knee of your back leg until it's as close to the floor as possible.
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly push back to a standing position.
(4) Repeat with the alternate leg going forward.
(5) Be sure that your movements are slow and controlled.
(6) Build up your repetitions over time.
(7) To increase resistance, you may hold hand weights alongside your body.
Heel raise
This exercise works your calf muscle (official term: gastrocnemius).
(1)Stand with the balls of your feet on a step -- hold onto a wall or handrail for balance.
(2) Slowly rise up on your toes, pause for a second or two, and then decline.
(3) Progress slowly -- don't overdo it at first.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.
Toe raise
This exercise for your shin is particularly useful if you are a runner.
(1)Sit on a stool, bench, or chair with feet flat on the floor.
(2) Raise your toes toward the ceiling while keeping your heels on the floor.
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly lower your toes.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.
Squat
This works the hamstrings, located in the back of your upper thighs. This exercise is difficult for beginners. It is best to do this in front of a mirror to check your form.
(1)Position your feet shoulder width apart, with your hands on your hips or the front of your thighs.
(2) Slowly lower your body until you're in a "sitting" position. Your front thighs should be parallel with the floor. You may also feel muscle contraction in your rear end (you're working these muscles as well!).
(3) Hold this position for a second or two and then slowly stand up straight.
(4) Increase repetitions as you become stronger.
(5) With increasing strength, you may also wish to add resistance by using a barbell, held behind your neck, that's resting on your upper back.
Lying side lift
To work the outside muscle of your leg called the abductors:
(1)Lying on your side, slowly lift your top leg as high as you can while keeping it straight, and then gradually lower it.
(2) Repeat as many times as comfortable.
(3) Lie on your opposite side to work the other leg in the same manner.
To work the inner thigh muscle (adductor):
(1)Lie on your side, crossing and slightly bending your top leg over your bottom one. Be sure not to let your hips roll back -- stay exactly on your side.
(2) Slowly lift your bottom leg as high as you can and then lower it gradually.
(3) Do this as many times as possible (without extreme pain).
(4) Repeat with your other leg.
(5) Some people like to use ankle weights for these exercises as they become stronger.

Seems have a large turn in a person's life. The outward type of a person is perfect in the eyes of the planet when every function is come up with in flawlessness or almost there. Of all of them, height plays a significant role.
Height is not just several is one of the critical conditions in lots of fields: sports, being a part of the security power, wooing someone, getting a job or perhaps bolstering one's confidence so, if you wish to be slightly taller you have to utilize this plan https://tr.im/DoSyu , grow taller 4 Idiots.
The mix of amino acids with development hormones, might indeed cause a taller stature and this really is what you will learn from that guide, the best way to put this mixture in practice because this system really work for many people.

The objective here would be to pull attention AWAY from your legs, which completely negates the wearing of shorts as wearing shorts is meant to show off your legs! Yet I digress. On that note, wear shorts that have stripes going top to bottom, or a flared-legged pair of shorts. The other thing you can do(if you have them that is) is to wear a matching colored pair of mid-thigh length spandex bike shorts under your regular shorts to actually camouflaged your legs. I should also mention something about bike shorts: Because of the material they are made from and how from-fitting they are, spandex clothing is actually supposed to be worn sans-undergarments! Please keep that in mind!

Wedge Sandals
Normally, i dont think young girls wear high heals or stilettos with regular shorts. So, i really like wedges because they make you taller and they're casual. I'm positive they will make your legs look longer and thinner.

1st you are 12 don't worry what your legs look like as long as you are healthy
but....
If you really need to know... taning will make them look slimer (don't go overboard),
high heels (but they hurt your back and joints and make sure not to wear ones that would make u look like a hooker)
and ofcourse moisturizing =)

Having a tan will make you appear slimmer. you should try getting one of those gradual tanning lotions that gives you color in about a week. That would be the best thing that doesn't require exercise.

Your highest heels (smile through the pain) and this best tip ever...baby oil (or if you've got none and you're really desperate loads of shimmery moisturiser) down the length of your shins. Walk tall!

Try wearing a skort. Less emphasis on the individual legs themselves.
