Erm, yeah, please ask your attendants before putting them in shorts. As a short fat girl, I would *not* be down with wearing shorts to a wedding, at all. Wouldn't even do it for my own sister. I'd rather go wrapped in a bedsheet, or a burlap sack, or...anything, really.
I am wearing shorts for my October wedding. White shorts, a white linen jacket, a peach tank, and white wingtip brogues. We are just having a tiny picnic in the park, no bridesmaids or anything, and then a dinner in the evening at a great restaurant. I am wearing a dress to that.
I will send photos. I am loving pants week! I had planned on wearing pants, and had the Lyn Devon image that you posted as my primary inspiration for a long time, but then I found the shorts, and I love wearing shorts, so I figured I'd go for it!
I'd love to wear shorts too. But I think on this occasion there's a lot to consider. Not everyone may be comfortable with it. Though it could actually depend on the theme and how everything is set up. :)
for a bride, yes, but with attendants it gets tricky. formal shorts are like vampires: you must ask them in of your own free will.
ReplyDelete@lauren i never wear shorts PERIOD. so i don't know who i think i'm fooling.
ReplyDelete@lauren i am determined, however, to get a workable pair of cutoffs going this summer. HELL OR HIGH WATER.
ReplyDeletecookies, you can wear shorts. you've seen me in shorts, and your face didn't melt off at all!
ReplyDelete@lauren maybe if i rocked em with wedges i would feel less *short.*
ReplyDeleteshorts + hasbeens = poetry
ReplyDelete@ESB, cutoffs + wedges = win.
ReplyDeleteI have a pair of black lace shorts that I'm DYING to rock at a wedding. But I'm afraid I'll be THAT GIRL who's dressed inappropriately.

ReplyDeleteSorry you guys, but I love shorts! So I think it'd be totally awesome to put the bridesmaids in shorts if the bride is wearing pants :)
