Bottoms Up (What I Wear)

So pants, capris, gauchos & shorts look funny on me.
I have a short torso and legs (Yes, I'm squatted 5'2") so, all of it is too long. There are not many plus size petite bottoms out there so I either use my middle school sewing skills or wear them long. My hemming skills are not that bad. I actually used to make my extra spending money hemming pants, sewing on uniform patches & replacing buttons in college. Yet, I'm still lazy and sometime I let my pants drag or pull them up around my bust line (Another reason why I don't tuck my shirts in).

Thought they look weird on me, I still wear pants, capris, gauchos & shorts.

Pants: I mostly wear pants during the cold weather months. If I wear a dress or skirt, I have on pants or leggings under them. I live in North Texas and it can get cold like Highs in the 40s cold. I don't usually wear long pants in the summer at all. If I do, it has something to do with modesty and a dress code for an event I may work as a server.

Shorts: Who wears short shorts? I don't.
God gave me short legs because he knew I would dress like this all the time. I love the short shorts and heels look. But for me to wear the style I would have to wear bathing suit shorts. So, I just admire it on others. Until God stretches my legs, these will be my shortest shorts. LoL
Gauchos & Capris:
I might as well call them tea length pants. That's how they fit.  Have on a cute tunic or a very short dress then throw on some knit capris and flip flops and I am dress  for on the go. They are very comfortable. They're just longer than everyone else's, thats all.
Maybe this 2nd grader knew, I wasn't going to be very tall.
That might be why she decided to wear dresses for a whole school year minus one day. Even her pants are too long. Oh well the pants didn't win her any athletic ribbons that field day. Maybe it is because I'm a non-athlete. But she was cute and in one of our favorite colors. :-D
