Get Shorty!
01.30.10

On a recent trip to the mall...ok....won't lie....on my daily visit to the mall, I couldn't help but see all the shorts on the mannequins. I stared hard at me skinny jeans and went passed that. I didn't like what I saw, pale, dry, untoned legs!! No way!!! How could I possilby think I could pull off this look??? I put on my stylist thinking cap and let me mind work its magic...the power of the TIGHTS!!! Yes, I will wear the shorts and wear tights to hide my winter legs! I purchased a black trouser short and paired it with black patterned tights and a bootie heel. I wore a baggy cashmere turtleneck sweater. I felt adorable :) and very comfy. Other ideas is a jean short with tights and flat boots with a sweater or jacket (see above) for a more casual look. I recommend a short no shorter than mid-thigh, slightly slouchy with a baggy waist you can secure with a cute belt. This is a definite must trend that can easily work through the rest of winter into spring. I wouldn't recommend this look for the office but that depends on your where you work!
Some great places to try this look out is Forever21, H&M and JCrew
