How short is too short

I'm heading out in a few weeks with a few girlfriends and I'm wondering how short is too short for my legs at my age. I'm 50 but my legs have still got it 😂 in fact they are probably the strongest they have ever been

If you bend over to pick something up I don’t want to see your knickers

This is the perfect definition!

Love this 😆

No such thing as too short....it's all in the styling.
If I'm wearing a super short dress or skirt then it's always with leggings or opaque tights and cycling shorts.
I agree.....nobody should be able to tell the colour of your knickers!😂

Yes, no vulva and you’re good 👍🏻

There used to be a meme for this but it’s probably illegal now

This.

And it’s a good idea to get someone to check the back view before you go out. I was behind someone on an escalator a couple of months back and what was a very short skirt at the front had ridden up to waist height at the back.

(I didn’t see her knickers, though - she wasn’t wearing any 😳)

You have to watch your bag too. I've suffered a drafty cheek before because I hadn't realised my bag had rucked my dress up on one side!😂

Not just the bending over issue.

Ensure there is no slit up the back of the skirt/dress! DH and I arrived at our flat after work and followed the upstairs neighbour up. I have no idea if her skirt had spun around, but the slit was directly over her bum, revealing bum cheeks and a G string.
