okay so i'm just going to start and say that girls with thighs like mine, should not be wearing shorts like these. i've been doing really well at the gym aswell; three to four times a week, but it seems to be doing the opposite effect to what i wanted. it's making my legs bigger! i just keep trying to tell myself "you're healthy and that's the main thing", and nine times out ten that does actually work. until you put me in hotpants. don't get me wrong i love the colour and the rips in them, but i just think i need be about half a stone lighter before these are in my comfort zone. six week goal for venice? ha, TGIF right?... pass the cake. i'm wearing a size 8 in them incase anyone's interested and they are fitted. i would have preferred a 10 if they had been available at the time as i would have worn them a little looser. anyway this was an attempt to prove to myself i can to smart casual, ish. let me know what you think.

Lady, your legs AND your look are bangin'. You'll turn heads walking down the street with this style, for sure, and not for the reasons you're on about! Relax and wear what makes you feel amazing. I am a huge fan of this easy chic look, particularly that slick of perfectly applied color.
ReplyDeleteI want your sunglasses. And your shorts. You look so lovely
