I am trying to speak about my legs in kinder terms these days, but your description rings some familiar bells. Oh, plus I have cellulite and veins. But guess what, I wear shorts anyway! </p> <p>I stick with shorts that come to at least mid-thigh in length for very casual wear, and closer to the knee for less casual outfits. I prefer a slightly tapered, close to the leg cut so I'm not adding more volume -- I aim for body-skimming when it comes to shorts, not baggy or tight. </p> <p>I bet you will look fab in shorts -- just take your time finding the right style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-i-wear-shorts#post-923113 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:37:27 +0000 Angie 923113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sure you can wear shorts! I agree with everything said here. Good luck with your kitty :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-i-wear-shorts#post-923076 Thu, 02 May 2013 02:03:21 +0000 Nadya 923076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair similar to Adelfa's - they're by NYDJ and quite comfy - I love them. Have you considered knee length skirts? I find a knee length full cotton skirt or a sporty skirt to be cute and comfy in the summer. E.g. I bought this last summer and wore it more than I expected to.<br /> <a href="http://shopping.aol.com/sejour-tiered-knit-skirt-plus/s345315611" rel="nofollow">http://shopping.aol.com/sejour.....s345315611</a></p> <p>Yes, you can wear shorts </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-i-wear-shorts#post-922274 Wed, 01 May 2013 05:07:43 +0000 Adelfa 922274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi. &nbsp;I have some of the same figure descriptors and I feel best in above the knee shorts with a very tapered leg. I got mine from Old Navy and I love them. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-i-wear-shorts#post-922266 Wed, 01 May 2013 04:51:25 +0000 Suz 922266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #1. Not Angie.&nbsp;But my view? Of <b>course</b> you can wear shorts. It will all be a question of cut and proportion to find the ones that flatter you best in the body you have. But I say, if you've been working hard, show what you've got!<br /><br />#2. You might also consider a couple of fun knee-length skirts. Cool, comfortable, fewer fit problems, as a rule, and they show off the legs from the knees down.&nbsp;<br /><br />#3. Good luck with the furbabies.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-i-wear-shorts#post-922250 Wed, 01 May 2013 04:09:40 +0000 BroadEarthQueen 922250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm a fairly wide thighed girl looking at me dead on. But once I turn to the side, suddenly my legs look really good. Only when I sit down, they look flabby pancake-like! So I was wondering...can I wear shorts and look&nbsp;<i>good?</i> I don't want to wear short shorts, exactly. I'm friendly to them on other girls, just not my personal style cup of tea.<i>&nbsp;</i>I just....I don't want to get stuck in pants and maxi skirts all summer again when I've been working so hard to lose this gosh-ferblasted weight. I know I've got a ways to go to my goal, but from about two-three inches about my knee down, my legs look (if I can say so) GOOD and I don't want to cover them with long, dark colored pants all summer with only my blue maxi skirt (love it though I do) as an option.<br /><br />OH! By the way, sorry I haven't posted lately everyone!!! One of our kittens&nbsp;has gone into heat for the first time&nbsp;and they're male and female, so we're trying to keep them separated using a very obviously handmade barricade of old shoe boxes, pieces of wood, duct tape and....our full length mirror. I promise I will post pictures of this soon, because besides not being able to post and the male being a mini tornado from being locked up and isolated, it's pretty funny! Luckily it's only about two more weeks!!!!
