Hemlines....

I've been doing some hardcore minor online shopping today. Just browsing looking for cute summer dresses. It's so hot here in the summer that you need light, breezy clothes to survive.

That doesn't mean I want just a couple inches of fabric to cover myself with thank you!!

I mean seriously?! What is up with the hemlines this year? I'm not even sure you can call most of the dresses I've seen today dresses. You should call them tablecloths. Oh no.. table runners!

I'd like my butt covered up please.

I'm 5'8 people. Not a giant per se but throw a tall girl with long legs a bone please!!

Thank goodness for the maxidress....

Amen! I may be shorter but I have really long legs and those short hemlines look trampy! And have you seen the dresses that literally look like a man's dress shirt?

ok found your blog via sassy engineer and love it!! i'm 5'8" and dresses are SERIOUSLY ridiculous. i had to buy a bubble skirt dress for my bridal shower simply to ensure my booty was not hanging out thanks to the super tight bottom hem. alright- tmi for my first comment but whatevs!

haha i like the short hemlines though because they distract from the fact that everything is JERSEY and CLINGY! i do not need VPL! but i agree, especially a lot of the shifts get very short - i've found that lilly even tends to shrink if you don't get it dry cleaned (which is worthless after it's shrunk) have a great weekend!
