Sometimes you get the fashion just right and sometimes you realize you bought stupid pants just because the butt was cute and they don't fit your body at all. (See Saturday's entry.) I'm here to tell you it's not the easiest thing in the world to be 5'2" and have the world's shortest legs. I mean, I could be a circus act with those things.

Hey, you look great! Absolutely gorgeous, and if your legs are a bit to the short side, well, so what? Trust me, you look swell.
Greetings from rainy Germany - Lola
Love your cardigans the last two days. I have the opposite problem - tall with long legs. We could be a circus act together!
I also have the issue of short legs, but I am only 5'0" (if I stretch my neck!) - I am partial to skirts and dresses and that's how I deal with it. As it gets cooler I'll wear more pants, but I agree that it is so hard to find pants that are flattering on a petite body!
I remember going to Education Week back in the day and fretting because of dress code! I'm 5'11" and back in the 90's shorts weren't as long-in fact, when I was at BYU they would kick me out of the testing center for my shorts being too short. Darn dress code, but you look great!
