Who likes short shorts?

Shorts are a funny thing.  As versatile as skirts, they can be worn for casual events, nights out, or even the office.  And yet we're scared of them more so than skirts.  Why is that?

For many of us, it can be a love-hate relationship.  We'd love to wear them but there's no occasion, no matching clothes, or sometimes even no confidence. 

From this day onwards, I have sworn to wear more shorts.  Because, let's face it, they are indeed very fabulous.  Take this lovely pair from Miss Selfridge.  High-waisted, they're perfect for a dressed up look.
