Velvet Shorts

This weeks omcz post was a free week, now this outfit is not out of my comfort zone but while wearing it i noticed it got a lot of attention, lots of disapproving looks and few tuts thrown in for good measure. Now just because my outfit gets that reaction doesn't mean i don't feel fabulous in it or that i won't wear it again. I truly believe that if you love what you wear nothing else matters and you should never let anyone make you feel uncomfortable in something that you love.
I am very aware that not everyone has my level of confidence or the ability to look someone in the eye who's obviously chatting shit about you and give them that sarcastic, i caught you and i don't care look. In a way this outfit is for you.

I wore these shorts from Simply Be, yes they are short and they have a cut to on the side which makes them look even shorter. They are the most gorgeous velvet and they have pockets too. I went for a size 24 as i tend to size up in shorts and the fit it great they have got room but i think the 22 would have been too tight for me.

I wore them with this lightweight jumper from New Look as i wanted to dress down the shorts a little. The top is a size 24 as i wanted a baggier look and was only £14.99. I absolutely adore these shorts i wish Simply Be could do then in every colour so that i could buy them all!

As you can see these shorts are short and there is a lot of leg on show but i love my legs so I'm going to get them out and no amount of tuts will ever stop that. I see a lot of people in short shorts but these are the first pair I've seen in a plus size store so thank you Simply Be for giving me something I've been longing for for months!

So I'm not breaking out of my comfort zone this week so why don't you give it a go instead, wear that item that's been in your wardrobe for months or the dress you love but never wear or you could take a leaf out of my book and opt for the tiny shorts!

  1. Love these- just wish my teeth didn't go on edge whenever I touched velvet! I was actually foolish enough to buy a velvet dress once which I've never been able to wear...

  7. You look amazing! You have such great legs (with fab tattoos) so why shouldn't you show them off? F*ck those people who look down their ignorant noses at your awesome sense of style. The shorts are so cute, and I love the black and burgundy together. xx
