I'm trying to get an overview over my spring and summer pieces, have alterations done if necessary etc. At the moment I own three pairs of summer shorts and have four skirts (after alterations are done). I'm wearing my only pair of sandals. I still need some new tops too, desperately.

#1/2
These are too big, but I can definitely still wear them. I don't like them rolled up though, so I'm wondering if I should shorten them a bit. Do you think they look better in #3/4? I'm a bit self conscious about my legs, but I don't like the look of them as they are now.

#5/6
These H&M shorts are at least ten years old, I dyed them last summer to have a pair of shorts with enough length for work. I actually think they are from the boy's departement. I think they look alright from the front, but I don't like the back view. I could shorten these too?

#7/8
The pleated pinstripe bermudas. I definitely think they need to be taken in a bit. They are my new shorts for work, replacing #5/6 in that function.

#9/10
The slightly too big "new" skirt. It actually doesn't feel that bad without hose, the way it sits here. With hose it's shifting around more.

#11/12
This skirt has wonky side seams that need to be fixed (it was once let out to accomodate weight gain).

#13/14
Not really my taste, but it fits well and is breezy.

#15
I really have to sit down and finally make a skirt out of this fabric (it once was a dress). My sewing skills are rather basic, I thought I'd do something similar to the skirt in #13/14 - waistband with side zip and button and small gathers.

Any suggestions what do do with the pieces I have? Which ones are wearable? Any ideas for tweaks? Any ideas what to add? Any ideas for tops?

If you made it to the end of this post, congratulations.

I pinned the second pair of shorts up a bit. Textstyle thought they were too long and L'Abeille suggested not to go too short, so I basically just turned the cuffs inside. But I think it definitely looks better this way! What do you think?

#18

I tried the first pair of shorts again to pin them and I decided I don't want to put any effort into them. I'm just going to let them go, I'm tired of too big pants.
