Anyone else bought or tempted to buy the new short shorts in at Zara at the moment? I have just succumbed to the navy spotted ones.

Mutton, me, mutton.

If you are long and lean then flats would be ok, maybe ballet pumps. But I would look like an oompa lumpa with big bottom, so I'd say heels, but maybe wedges. Less muttony then proper heels me thinks.

Report back please.

I am short and skinny.

Am off to buy new capsule wardrobe - and do quick shoe hunt and supermarket shop and back in time to do french lunch thing with dh and assorted children. Will report back. Asked you on foodie thread Northerner which chateau you ate at?

I love navy polka dot

ggglimpopo · 12/05/2006 11:13

I got strappy but not too high wedge sandals, very fine blue and white pin stripe, the last pair in my size.

link? even if not navy spotted, how short is short? Will I have to wax? Wink

Meanwhile, saw my first pair of credible city shorts today amongst all last year's white gypsy skirts.
Quite thought she was wearing a pencil skirt at first - very elegant indeed.
