I need some shorts for holidays and I don't do shorts. Help!!

[DrNortherner]

Normally live in LOng flowing skirts or linen wide legged trews, which is why legs never get a tan.

I'm fairly short - 5'4'' and a good size bum so no hot pants. Will wear with wedges as look all umpa lumpa in flip flops.

Don't want to show too much thigh.

TIA style peeps

in denim though but I wore them in 30 degrees and was ok

Do shorts make legs look shorter?

Message withdrawn

I have to ask dh for any purchases, of course, we are married and he is head of the household .

Hmm, think I need longer legs tbh.

I guess I don't need shorts. Could just stick to shorts as I am 30 and ovb gping down hill...

You lots are ovbiously mutton

strangely enough, M&S has a huge selection of shorts (some quite nice linen ones and some cotton roll up types) - you could go there and try loads on and see what you think

I have quite big thighs and the (just above)knee length ones disguise that quite well

I'm 42yo and wear skimpy shorts. Who says women over 30 should not wear shorts? That is hogwash imo.

Stick to skirts I mean.

Am off into town later for short trying on exercise.
