After loosing weight i have decided to wear shorts at night on holiday instead of maxi dresses and trousers (will still be taking some) do these shorts look ok? Cant decide if they are too short?!

I think you look great in both, enjoy your holiday!

Therealslimshady1 · 28/06/2017 18:17

Looks fab!

The bow is very "on trend"

Blazedandconfused · 28/06/2017 18:19

Both look great.

monkeywithacowface · 28/06/2017 18:20

Well you can pull those shorts off with confidence OP. Am jealous as I can't wear shorts due to varicose veins

ShesAStar · 28/06/2017 18:20

I like the bow!

Amee1992x · 28/06/2017 18:23

First pair look fine second pair are very flattering xx

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 28/06/2017 18:26

Second pair are really flattering!

AnyFucker · 28/06/2017 18:29

Love the 2nd pair

First pair do nowt for you

memyselfandisolodjsjajaj · 28/06/2017 18:43

Second pair is a whole new thing and flatters your figure! Love it! Get rid of first pair

Persemillion · 28/06/2017 18:49

You look fab in the second set of photos. And... I like the bow.

GingerRogers84 · 28/06/2017 18:58

Second pair are lovely.
I like the first pair too, maybe without the t-shirt tucked in.
Enjoy the holiday ☀️☀️☀️

MrsDurrell · 28/06/2017 19:02

I love the first pair as I love a scallop! Where are they from? I think they look very nice on you, but just with a fitted top to sit neatly at the waist and hips rather than a tucked in top

MrsChopper · 28/06/2017 19:04

The navy shorts are fine, I just don't think the top works with it. Also like the grey ones. You've got cracking legs :) enjoy your holiday!

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 19:14

Thanks everyone, im keeping the second ones (from Dorothy Perkins) taking the first pair (H&M) back.
im not sure if the yellow top goes with them?
I have an orange cami that i like, so will try that on with them later ☺
Now just need to find a skirt i like!!! 😨

You have great legs ! Enjoy your holiday and well done on the weight loss

aintnothinbutagstring · 28/06/2017 19:57

I actually like the first pair too, though I'd probably wear it with a plain coloured top, something a bit sharper and not tucked in. You have great legs!

WillowWeeping · 28/06/2017 20:15

Love the bow on second pair - fab!

SomeOtherFuckers · 28/06/2017 20:17

I think you look lovely it both !

SomeOtherFuckers · 28/06/2017 20:17

And I like the yellow top - it looks classy.

0utForAWalkBitch · 28/06/2017 20:36

Your legs are fab! And the second pair are very flattering, and I like the bow. As a style, I actually like the first pair best, but I'd try a bigger size, or like previous poster have said, an untucked top. I think it's the pockets look a little pulled, and this could be the cut rather than them being too small. Basically you will look brilliant in shorts, just try on lots to ensure you get the best fit for you. Xx

othersideofforty · 28/06/2017 20:45

Do you think SomeOtherFuckers, ive never been classy in my life!! 😉

EnidButton · 28/06/2017 20:46

Keep them both. They both look good imo. You've got really nice legs. Nothing to feel self conscious about at all. Wear the shorts with pride.

knockknockknock · 28/06/2017 20:51

Can you do a photo of he first ones with your top untucked??

alpacasandwich · 28/06/2017 21:05

The second pair looks gorgeous on you!
