Can I wear these shorts?

[Twoshoesnewshoes]

Please be honest
I’ve always had chunky thighs and calves, and I’m about half a stone over my ideal weight.
i have very blotchy legs so will add fake tan!

Yes

You are not 'chunky' and you have great legs. Wear the shorts!

They look great and you’re not chunky at all!

Yes definitely!

This!!

I think your legs look great, not chunky at all.
However I don’t think the shorts are flattering.
They look chunky, not you.

You have perfectly good legs, the shorts look great.

You have lovely legs, weird you think they’re chunky. But I don’t like the shorts

Are we looking at the same thing?! You definitely do not have chunky thighs. You have great looking legs in fact.
I agree with a pp that the style of your shorts maybe isn’t perfect for you - a chino style might suit you better, maybe similar to these?

Yes! I like shorts with a bit of a mannish oversized shirt… not that you were asking 😀

Yep, you look good

Awww thank you
my thighs curve right out above the knee though?
am I overthinking it?

They’re meant to if you have any vague amount of muscle

Re the shorts - because they stick out too much?
ill have a look at the chino shorts

There is nothing chunky about your legs.

Your legs are not chunky.

Yes, you absolutely can wear them. 😄

For pure visual style I’d have suggested a different length - either shorter, or a little longer so they hit the narrowest part of your thigh. And the length of the top you’re wearing is kind of all wrong. It makes the look … I don’t know … scrappy and unintentional. You want either a cropped top above the waistline of the shorts, or something loose and oversized and probably the same length as them. Be bolder.

You look lovely go for it !!

@TwoshoesnewshoesThighs have muscles. That’s bulk and unless you are a skinny model of course you have legs that are not straight up and down and have curves where your muscles are. Your legs are very normal.

Thanks everyone
looking for chino shorts now
@MsAlignment its my pyjama top 😂 was just trying them on

Are the chunky thighs and calves in the room with us now?

They look great. Wear the shorts.

You have great legs and of course you can wear the shorts!

It’s mainly that they end at the widest point of your leg and make it wider. I’d try on a few in different lengths and see what looks best. You have great legs but I don’t think the shorts are particularly flattering. They’re okay of course, but you could get nicer ones that suit you better.

They sort of need to to meet your hips?

The shorts are not flattering at all on you, you’d look much better in tighter fitting showers and something that makes you look less boxy.

Ah okay

how about
