  • Wear shorter shorts. My thighs are where I gain all my weight too and longer jean shorts tend to accentuate them :)

    just wear them if you like them. usually you are the only person who pays attention to your "fat" thighs, others don't really care. so go ahead!!

    I am wondering if I should save myself the embarrassment and not wear shorts. Opinions??

    I have a huge bias for nice, strong legs like yours, so a hell yes from me.

    the legs are fine, the shorts are really unflattering.
    buy something with a decent cut!

    I have to agree with this particular post. It's not your legs that are the problem, it's the actual style of shorts. I have big thighs too so I try to wear them shorter, and they have more of a low rise. The waist on those shorts are too high.

    TL;DR Nice legs, change the shorts.

    Where do you buy your shorts? I can't find any in store that will fit my waist AND my thighs, so I typically end up cutting my own.


    PS - so crotchet shorts, yes or no??

    Crochet shorts?????

    Do not cut your own, buy some and have them tailored if they don't fit right, and make sure the rise is lower than the ones you posted.

    Since yall keep saying it was the shorts and NOT me, here are some options. Are either of these better/more flattering??

    I think you are thinking about this entirely too much.....pick an outfit and go enjoy yourself.

    The black & white outfit is adorable. I'm biased against the ones on the left because I *hate* the trend of lacey, crochet shorts. I think they look like granny bloomers.

    You look great!

    the eye is drawn to contrasts - the eye is drawn to the line between short & flesh. if you have that line around the fattest part of your thigh then the eye will be drawn to the fattest part of your thigh. s'not rocket science.
