Spring is finally here! Where I live anyways :p This post brightened my day forsure CC! Loved Shalom in the shorts at V&R, along with the cute blue Balmains, and ALL the high-waisted, chic shorts at Chloe. The men also don't look too bad in short shorts ;) Time to go short and swimwear shopping!
[K]
lol wow what is up with those male hot pants?! I'd like to see a regular guy trying to wear those with a straight face!
Love how Gwyneth styles her shorts, and the Ferragamos are loose without looking sloppy.
Me encantan los shorts,los primeros son preciosos!!!
Los de Isabel Marant azul Klein los ha copiado zara,tendré que probármelos!xoxo
Give me those Ferragamos or the Armanis!! !!
Oh, wait...I am 43 and have oompa-loompa thighs.

I love shorts - I can't WAIT till its warm enough to wear them here. I'm totally loving the last Chloe's you posted... Definitely on my wish list. ox
hehe great shorts! I love shorts, you can show off your legs yet don't have to worry about people seeing your underwear lol
i am so looking forward to shorts. must exercise harder.
I love the Victor & Rolf -- even though I really never wear shorts.
ooh the bloomer shorts are the best!!
HI. I’ve just added you to my list ‘your blog is fabulous! (I have taken one blog from each country). I think that your blog fabulous and I frequently visit it. More on my blog. Greetings.
p.s. I like shorts too. I, ve just bought 2 new pairs of them.
Those Viktor & Rolf are the most fabulous find on earth!
Wow, what a selection of "only" shorts and what a variety to wear.
Great summer outfit.
I AM lusting after chloe's scallop shorts.
my perfect short.
All of these are greaaat !
I adore shorts! I think they're the perfect kind of sexy during hot summer days or any day really!
i love high waste mini shorts :) and this is unusual coming from me...but the boys here look delish too in those teeny tiny shorts...
xx-LJ from SOS!
I love the cuffed Blumarines.
Uhh can't wait for the swimwear alphabet :) it was so fun the last time.
I always love your titles too, I must say. Always so creative.
And Elie Saab rocking this trend as sophisticated as always :)
Thanks for your comment CC.
And I love my new profile pic too. I actually have the issue of ELLE Italia where that Kate Bosworth editorial is from - spent big money on it, but it was truly worth it. I probably spend too much money on foreign fashion mags, but they always make me feel good ^^
Have a nice week!
i like women in the short shorts but it looks so much better whe they fit nicely to the shape of her hips, backside and thighs (just my opinion) but i really lol don't think guys should have those on lol
shorts and heels are the ultimate hotness!
Qué ganas de ponerme shorts!
Tus selecciones son increibles, me quedo con Blumarine, el siempre elegante Elie Saab, Isabel Marant, y el look de la última imagen,
besos guapa!
You have found the cutest shorts ever! I am actually excited for summer!
Completely in love with the Viktor & Rolf shorts dear CC... !!
that blumarine and that last shot are amazing. I love shorts! especially paired with stockings or bare- they give your legs mileage!
I don't own a single pair of shorts. I might have 40 dresses and 20 skirts but no shorts :S
I'll get on that when I grow some legs - and when I do, it will be those Chloe scallop shorts as seen on Kate Bosworth! Love thOSE!
Oh I want new shorts! These are all so cute. I guess I should go running so I'll have more toned legs huh? haha
At my age I can't carry off that look. :(

If only I didn't have such a bodacious bum.
I fully endorse a pair of hotpants with some sky high heels. I love that last look the most! Go legs!
oh i love this post of sexy shorts!!! shorts are so comfie!
Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.

Oooh, I can't wait till the weather permits me to wear shorts! I must say I do not like those short shorts on the men--even the male models!
Ooh shorts! Can't wait to start wearing some again when the weather improves. Love the Pirate print Vivienne westwood ones!
I make no qualms in saying that I’m actually looking forward to those unapologetically short shorts this summer… so I’m definitely all for the zero coverage/practically nonexistent/barely-legal attire. Lol-xxx
But hold the phone, check out the muscles on Miss Sixty, and seriously, can Gwyneth Paltrow get any cooler.

I got in on this last summer, so I've broken the 'are my shorts too short' feeling & am ready for another season, love this post.

CC

I love the outfit with the yellow skirt and shirt with the big bow! This posting has made me excited for summer!
Short-shorts really scare me, but I love the puffy shape that we're seeing a lot of this season.
