I think this S/S season is going to be shorts free for me. Nobody wants to see these pasty white legs anyways, to be honest.

i think i am done with shorts. I am tired of shorts + polo + (thongs, boat shoes, slippers) look. I am gonna give my jeans a lot more wear this summer then ever before.

I think that the dressier shorts can look great, depends on legs and other clothes imo.

Yep, shorts. I'll be stocking up on them this spring/summer...I hope Uniqlo carries some nice ones with the Tim Hamilton/Loden Dager collabs. Other than that, I'll do J. Crew or some other cheaper brands; I won't splurge on garments that I buy almost exclusively to sit on dirt.

Ill be wearing alot of shorts this summer (mostly J.Crew b/c i work there). Last summer i was almost exclusively jeans but that got pretty old fast so i decided to sacrifice style for comfort.

Uh, a trench coat with shorts? That sounds pretty awful.
