Hi guys!
I totally want a pair of those short shorts! We had a non uniform day at school the other day and everyone was wearing them, lol.
Basically, what I mean is short shorts, lol. I'm trying to find pics!
Anyway, I was wondering, do you think you have to be skinny to wear them?! Or does that not matter, it's just how you wear them?! How big would you say is to big to wear them, a UK size 10, a US size 6 etc? And what's the most falletring colour, white, black etc?
Ty!:)

yeah i think if your above a size UK 10 dont wear them!!....its the same rule as skinny jeans..you have to be pretty skinny to wear them.

My mom spilled bleach all over my favourite shorts yesterday. I was heartbroken.
Anyway I love those shorts you showed us, and I don't think you have to be a twig to wear them. If you're comfy in them, they fit and you feel good in them then that's all you need. I'd say go for a bright colour -- it's unexpected and unique. Maybe get those yellow ones you liked so much. ;)

those are really cute. i agree with everyone else, though. you do need to be sorta small to wear them. they just look better. but i guess if you wore a flattering top it would be okay if you were bigger.
Ballerina, i've been to the play cats :) lol

I am the hugest fan of short shorts. You don't have to be a twig to wear them and look good, just make sure you aren't jamming your legs into them because if your thighs start bulging, they are no longer flattering.

I love short shorts.
I would just say, dont be fat & wear short shorts.
Fat jiggling when you walk = :selfvomit
Deff. a fashion no-no.

i like short shorts as well.. ive never really liked my legs because theyre so wide and fat but short shorts almost make them look like they go with my legs! it makes me feel better... lol.. i wear ones that are like pajama shorts... yeah know.. i dont really care for the jean ones... because they have the bulge issue

I think as well as being skinny, you'd need to be tanned.

If your legs jiggle (and I mean AT ALL) or if you have cellulite do not wear them.

A little chubby legs aren't bad, but if your legs are fat and gross don't.

If your legs have shape it looks fine, whatever. If you have to wear plus sizes, don't do it.
I'm pretty thin and I can pull them off, I think, but I don't wear them, just because I don't like my entire legs being exposed.

I want a pair of those kind too!
I have really nice, tan legs, so pretty much anything i wear flatters me.
Anyway, i dont think fat or chubby ppl should wear them.
You dont have to be a twig, though.

I'd feel too self concious in short shorts but I'd consider wearing leggings under them.

I have a pair that are denim. They look pretty short.. like short short short. I'll get a picture of myself wearing them if i can. They're lovely and really nice and comfy to wear. They are really nice with leggings, too :]
I'm a size 8 so.. i guess i would look okay in a lot of most styles. But i think maybe a 12/14 would be my limit on these shorts. I got my shorts out of either Topshop or Mckays.. An they're not that expensive either, only about £8 -12

Anyone can wear them. You don't have to be skinny to wear them. I'm sure you could pull it off. :)

Sometimes certian styles don't look very flattering to certian body types.. tbh.

i recently got a really cute pair of denim shorts... it has a lace heart on the back pocket, and matching lace on the inside, so if you roll up the bottom a bit you can see it.
LIZ LISA has cute clothes <3
