	question May 21, 2008
I've got a question- what are you girls wearing as it gets warmer out? Short shorts, long jeans, bermudas, crops?? We've heard so much buzz out there about short-shorts (especially plaid), but I'd love to know what you all are really out there shopping for...

	I know alot of the women around here wear the Crops,Capris and Shorts.Plaid is the New thing. WhatsInHost_Kadee


	I have teenage daughters and they say short shorts. Bermudas are like for school.


	I love the plaid shorts! Im a teenager about to graduate high school, and plaid and jeans are hot hot hot!! And on cooler days, I wear long jeans. sometimes with the holes and distressed look, but those are usually for mild summer days. But plaid is definitly in now!


	Some plaid is ok but it is so american eagle and kiddie young. right now i like short shorts but i only own three pairs of those because you can only get away with wearing them during summer and on weekends and most of the time on lots of people they are simply unflattering and skanky. Mid-thigh or a tad bit shorter is the best short. its not to long (bordering on bermuda nope) and its not to short (bordering on hoochie). and with these shorts you can dress the up and down easily. i love the idea of shorts and a simple v-neck t-shirt paired with metallic sandles or trendy gladiators with funky jewlrey. Fashion needs to step away from the endless polos and abercrombie and fitch genre. IT IS BORING!! and juvenile. people you dont need to dress like your in middle school when you are fun in high school. its ok in moderation but add some variation. now onto the capri issue. capris that skim just below the knee are a no no. knickers are ok sometimes (i however dont prefer them) but none of these short capris. right now it is long clam diggers with a skinny fit that tapers the leg. i would love to see some of these in sweet pastel pinks, blues, greens, and yellows. jeans are great. they just have to fit and flatter. as long as youve got that and you dont overload on the wash or rips then your made.


	Awesome feedback. thanks so much! I think if you hit the juniors floor right now at TJ's you'll all find a little bit of everything you mentioned. We have plaids covered, but we're seeing some great reaction to denim short shorts and bermudas right now too. We also have a really great assortment of skinny jeans out there too!


	Okay, I know I'm really late on posting for this one (I just joined the site today), but if you've got a bootie, plaid is a big ol' no-no! My summer staple is a pretty skirt with a drop waist and some volume. I can do a walking short (one that comes to the knee), but otherwise, i haven't worn shorts in many years (I'm in my early 30s).
