In the Northeast, it gets quite humid as well as hot. Shorts are how you get through it. Going outside in anything else (besides a dress and the kind I like are hard to find. I will not go without a bra at my age!!) is crazy. You look so cute in your outfit. I love those shorts!!Nora Nollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14752839794439522921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-75676505965015056722015-07-09T01:14:28.539-05:002015-07-09T01:14:28.539-05:00No reason to stop wearing shorts because of age - ...No reason to stop wearing shorts because of age - you look great in them! <br /><br />Alice<br />www.happinessatmidlife.com<br /><br />Would love for you to stop by & join TBT Fashion link up.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296756116750579213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-34965686162784208962015-07-08T09:45:57.448-05:002015-07-08T09:45:57.448-05:00UGHGHG!!

My thoughts are that people should do and wear what makes them feels comfortable and STOP JUDGING OTHER PEOPLE for doing the same.

We really shouldn't be worrying about that should we. After all, shorts are fun, practical, can also be very pretty and flattering as your lovely outfit demonstrates.<br /><br />http://petitesilvervixen.blogspot.co.uk/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12140833533512536372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-33328508613545462042015-07-05T13:45:49.213-05:002015-07-05T13:45:49.213-05:00I agree with everything you said!

In fact, I have a similar post partially written - I've have all the thoughts swirling around in my head! I think when I do post it, I'll share a link to your post! So my legs don't look as good as a 20 something - so what. My skin has wrinkles and sags a bit. Does that mean it's not appropriate to show my face in public?? Ok. I'll get off my soap box. Your shorts are so cute and l love that you made your necklace from a shell you found on the beach!

(Of course some shorts they make these days I wouldn't have worn when I was in my 20's, but that is another story :-) These look great and I also love the shirt. I completely agree about the air conditioning in this country. And comfortably cool isn't even enough, it has to be turned on to the max, so we can freeze!
