The Secret to Wearing Shorts When You Fear Them

I used to fear shorts for years, but the older I got the less I cared which somehow helped me keep trying shorts.  Eventually I found shorts that didn’t cut off my circulation.  If you feel me on that, these floral shorts from Old Navy are fantastic!  A glorious 5″ long and very roomy in the waist and leg.  I’m wearing size 6.

Besides roomy shorts, you know what else helps lessen the fear of shorts?  Nude wedges.  No joke.  They elongate a leg line sooooo deceptively.  Totally cheating in the most awesome way.  I got these from Target like 3+ years ago and have worn them a whole heck of a lot!  (See the ways HERE.)  And when I feel like every other shoe cuts off my leg line I just pop these babies on and feel alright again.

Will you be wearing printed shorts once the weather permits?
