Thank you Angie - they are a good fit. DS thought they looked okay. I will be brave (!) and ask DH this evening.
Synne, thank you - that is great advice and did but some black leggings with the shorts. But navy leggings I could do I think.
Cardiffgirl, good to hear your DD likes them!
Slim cat, thank you. I’m teetering TBH. I did look at some Pinterest images yesterday.
Janet, thank you. I don’t know if it is a thing right now but I was kind of thinking it was almost a classic / timeless fringe look. It may be that I’m craving summer sun and that’s way I’m drawn to shorts. I’ve only just got used to wearing linen shorts and I’ve never worn denim shorts (!).
Jenn, yes! I have but I’ve got some lighter lace up boots that will also look good. (And are more comfy!)
Nitsirk, thank you! It sounds like a super outfit that you had. Totally cute.
Shevia, exactly! Why not. I think even knowing that they are in my wardrobe for the potentially rare times I reach fir them might satisfy my need!
LisaP, thank you, I don’t know to be honest if the look hasn’t made it anyway or somewhere. There are images on Pinterest - not that that necessarily confirms anything. Thank you for the comments on the fit. It’s good to know they look okay in themselves.
Thank you Kellygirl. You have a good memory - yes I’ve a pair of Docs!
Thank you Joy, yes I think that could work.
Thank you Zaeobi, I absolutely do not want to be anywhere near school girl territory! Stomp boots may be the way forward - assuming that I keep them and I’m brave enough to wear them outside the house!
