I never would have considered wearing a skirt or dress unless I had to. But this year I'm stepping out of my comfort zone (shorts) and will wear capri leggings, skirts, and dresses. Now if the weather would just cooperate I could wear all of my cute new clothes.

No, I am 48. I have not worn them in 10 years because I think that they are too casual for my style.

I shore do. I like mid thigh best but have them all lengths. I also wear capris but skirts only for such things like weddings.

I live in Austin, Texas, and people here wear shorts year 'round. I've even seen people in shorts when it was 54 degrees outside. I like walking length and prefer non-denim cotton.

Yes, but then I'm not in my 60's either. I don't wear Bermuda shorts. I wear short shorts.

I'll wear walking shorts at a car show, but that's baking in the sun all day. We all look pretty messy by the end of the show, LOL. But I really prefer GS knit capris, they are drapey and look pretty with a wedge.

It is so silly.....here are my rules:

Shorts....3" from the crotch

Crops....23" inseam

Full length pants...29.5" to 32"....inseam, which accounts for different shoes

Re: Do you wear shorts out in public?

Yes. I wear lots of shorts and skirts in warm weather, none of which are longer than the top of my knee. Absolutely no crops or capris for me.
