online shopping - I have exhausted my usual "go to's"!

Please can you recommend to me the places you do your online clothes shopping.

We are going on holiday in a few weeks and I am desperate for short's but all the places I usually shop on line seem to think that women only want shorts that show their arse cheeks! (Topshop, Miss Selfridge, ASOS, Oli, Next etc etc)

Please can you rccomend me some sites that may have shorts which are a decent length! I'm looking for some which are just above the knee - not just below my bum hole!

Thanks!

I think I got their brochure in the post yesterday - not sure how?!?!?!

I did notice they had a few pairs of chino type ones but they were baout £30 which I thought seemed quite expensive for shorts - maybe I'm wrong!

Also do you happen to know what Joules are like for sizes? I am a 10-12 and it would be irratating to order the wrong size. I am usually a 10 in Next, M&S etc but in the more teen highstreet stores I'm a 12

Joules are pretty roomy, I'd go for the 10.

The striped ones for £19 are nice, although I agree most of them are around the £30 mark, so not exactly cheap-they are excellent quality though, with really lovely finish and details.

I'm sold - I shall order them now.

Any more suggestions? I'm fussy

Whitestuff? Fatface? I have knee-length jean shorts from Fatface, you'd be a 10 in both stores probably. Might be worth looking at Uniqlo also, they do shorts. Also Debenhams have a big range generally.
