Look of the Week : Work that Shorts!!

by Dexie

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and let everybody know, I HATE LEGGINGS. I think it’s for little girls. Cute toddlers. Cute babies. I am so sick and tired of seeing grown ass women(23-above) walking around with leggings under mini skirts. Skirts are for showing off your awesome legs. Why wear leggings to cover it up?. Umm to keep me warm?? Helllooo, if it’s chilly then maybe you should wear jeans instead? Why wear a skirt if it’s freaking 35 degrees outside? WHY??? If it’s Fall season, Skirts and Dresses that goes all the way just above your knees are awesome with knee-high boots. As shown here, and here. But shorts or skirts over leggings during Spring/Summer season is abominable.

Sienna Millier my ass. Lindsay Lohan style my ass. Don’t me wrong. I love the Mean Girls star. She can act, but some of her clothes choices are very questionable to me. At least Paris Hilton has the guts to really go all out when she’s wearing skirts, HAHAHA. You know I’ve lost it when I’m “praising” that skank’s fashion sense. All I’m saying is, if you want to wear a skirt or shorts, wear one. Don’t try to ruin the look by wearing those ghastly leggings. Unless you’re a kid, please don’t.

Which is why when I saw this picture from Bettyjack through the Wardrobe Remix pool on Flickr, I had to feature it here. I was going to don a skirt myself, take a picture, and feature it here but I need to shave my legs first..hahaha. Maybe tomorrow. This, my fellow stylish fashionistas, is the way to wear shorts. Nice top too.

If you got the freaking legs, flaunt it. Stop covering it up with those idiotic leggings. Just because some desperate C-list(ahem Sienna) celebrity is shoving it down your throat doesn’t mean you should swallow it. Copish!!!

Now let me go stare at my shoe collection before I have a heart attack. ;)

ADDENDUM: Wear underwear under a skirt, ok please.NO to leggings, but YES to underwear. Always :).

    I agree! i hate leggings too! but i have to tell you, i saw the look done right recently on two occasions. you really have to have a keen fashion sense, the right shoes, tops and accessories to make the look work. more women look like sluts or slobs in those things!

    “No to leggings, but yes to underwear.” Haha! It’s funny because it’s true. =)

    I love shorts! It’s all I wear in spring and summer…and even fall too since I live in southern texas. Shorts actually out number my jeans and pants put together in my closet right now. They’re comfortable, I can show off my legs and unlike a mini skirt I don’t have to worry or check behind me to see if anything is showing or riding up back there.

    As for leggings, I agree with tracey, you do need the right shoes, skirt and top to pull it off. i saw someone the other day with a tank top, miniskirt, black leggings and flip flops!
