What Happened to Shorts??!!!

Shorts above are from Ashely Steward for $19.99

I am getting ready for the Shriner Convention in Tampa, Fl, in a few weeks, and while i love to make clothes I do not always have time to sew for my self.  So I am looking for a couple pairs of shorts to take on my trip with me.  I see why the shorts i have in my closet are about 10 years old….The state of shorts is YUCK!!!!!!!!!!!

While it took me years to find capris i could wear, being  5′-5″ i am too tall for Petite and too short for Average sooo capris hit me in the wrong spot i look like my mom didnt love me and dressed me crazy, they make my feet look extra big and crazy looking…..and no it is not all in my mind i have had girlfriends go with me and the look on their face alone told me capris were not for me lol.

I did find that skinny capris or ones that i can roll up are better for me From Lane Bryant $54.50  The Capris i have resemble these

….but i only have 2 pairs and i have had those 2 for a good 3 years….any who i wanted another pair of shorts or another pair of capris…..So i start looking online at the usual curvy girl spots, Ashely Stewart, Avenue, and Lane Bryant….and what do i see…

These walking shorts….. these are from Lane Bryant $49.50

uh what woman with thick thighs as my self would wear these shorts? i see them getting bunched up in the crotch and just not look good at all…..or they are very short.

I am baffled at these shorts they have online, maybe with hope and a prayer when i go to the store i will see something different. lol

I really love wearing leggings with a tunic top and a big belt…i guess that is the look i will sport on vacay……

this look is something i will be sporting on vacation and a lot of dresses lol From Lane Bryant.com

I see why my closet full of dresses and hardly any tops and shorts…..

So my Curvy Girls….. What kind of shorts do you wear or do you wear them at all?
