But if you decide to buy anything in addition to your shorts, may I suggest simple dresses, perhaps worn with a comfortable underlayer like slipshorts? I think that'd be easier than building skirt and top ensembles from scratch (I'm also short-waisted and never tuck). I personally find the dress/bike short combo to be the most comfortable option in humid heat - no heavy waistband, no thigh rub. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/advice-needed---shorts-in-south-of-france#post-1786146 Fri, 10 Mar 2017 19:33:14 +0000 Marlene1 1786146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the chance to go to France for 3 weeks in July, with the time spent between Nice/the French Riviera and Provence. &nbsp;It will be hot, and I don't have skirts (and the shorter tops I would need with skirts.)<br />My summer bottoms are bermuda shorts because I bike everywhere in the summer.<br />I have an IT body type with a large bust, short waist, thicker middle-aged middle, narrow hips, good legs. &nbsp;I don't tuck, ever.<br />If you've been to the south of France, what is your advice? &nbsp;Are bermudas okay? &nbsp;(I know I won't get arrested for wearing shorts, but I don't want to be embarrassed.) </p>
