Sight of my midriff could parlously affect people of a nervous disposition!<br />I will give the skort concept some serious consideration, though.

Thanks for the tips on colours, length and fabrics that worked for you. I'll bear that on mind. Will you wear yours back home too?<br /><br />Thanks so much for popping in, I appreciate all the comments I get ... and the tips !thepoutingpensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484934089759704702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-60453167260674571252016-08-03T08:30:11.082+01:002016-08-03T08:30:11.082+01:00Well you know I broke out of my comfort zone on th...Well you know I broke out of my comfort zone on this. On vacation they were great. I got the most use out of the beige ones. Denim is a good choice too. I think it's important to check how they hang. I've found the thicker material like denim or thick chino style better. My legs are fat 2 the knee so I can see that 6 inches is best on me. I do wear on the knee ones well too.Anna of Mutton Style and Yearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17123818835370240987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-26427146868720109832016-08-02T16:18:41.405+01:002016-08-02T16:18:41.405+01:00Hi Janet,
It's great to hear from you.
Oh ...Hi Janet,<br /><br />It's great to hear from you. <br /><br />Oh dear, that friend's comment was not very nice, and coming from an adult too. And how untrue, you have beautiful legs! The photos do not lie!<br /><br />The inner leg detail is good to hear as that's the sort of leg I'm looking at with the shorts pic'ed above. <br /><br />Oh, I am so tempted now that I've heard from you . !<br />thepoutingpensionerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484934089759704702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-6283760380935871902016-08-02T14:57:40.961+01:002016-08-02T14:57:40.961+01:00yes i do! but it took awhile to get over myself. ...yes i do! but it took awhile to get over myself. lol<br /><br />i had the exact opposite problem you had. my legs were so skinny, i was teased all the time. toothpick was a common one and it was v hurtful as a teen. recently a friend said i had toothpicks for legs and oh it still hurt! <br /><br />sooooo, i have 2 pair of 9 or 10" inseams and i like them. i also wear skirts that are actually more comfortable. but like you, i just don't care anymore what people think of me or my body type. but my God it has taken a long time. xothe gardener's cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447809353998632722noreply@blogger.com
