Basically I have recently lost three stone and have become really quite toned. My new bod is something I have never had, not even as a teen. I am dead pleased with myself and I want to show it off... A bit... I still lack confidence, I still feel like the fat girl trying too hard, I have felt like that all my life. However in my head I know I am not. I am off on holiday soon, somewhere hot and I thought it was the perfect time to try getting my pins out - for the first time in xx years! Smile

I have an old injury that means my upper thighs have to he covered and I am dealing with dc so want to avoid skirts. I thought it would be great to wear mid thigh length shorts. I like skinny fit (now I have no wobble) and I like high waist but I cannot seem to find anything that does all three. Can anyone help? Oh and I am on a serious budget so the cheaper the better!

Do you mean sort of 1950s sailor style? If so, try Topshop.

Or Ted Baker if you are rich!

Oops lilyloo, sorry!
Topshop have one pair that may fit the bill though I can't tell how they fit really as they hang off the model in the pic but that means nothing I guess. Sorry I can't link to them as I am on my phone.

I took a look at Ted baker but sadly it is a touch outside my budget Grin

Warehouse might be worth a look too. DD1 got some lovely ones there.

these?

Boden I know, but I think there are some voucher codes kicking about, I filled my basket but left it a few days, lo and behold a letter arrives from Boden with an offer for 15% off and a £10 discount to be used at the same time.
