Or should everything hit just above the knee?
Another thing: for the first two rounds, PNMs are given a t-shirt and we have to wear shorts with it... would shorts similar the these be too short? Would it be alright to wear a skirt with a t-shirt?
Can someone offer me some guidance? I don't anyone to think I look trashy and inappropriate, but at the same time I want to wear fashionable clothes. |
Having a tall daughter with very long legs I can appreciate what you are going through. GAP and J Crew work really well for my daughter. These shorts should be fine unless you are in the 6'4-6'5 range. My daughter is 6' and she has these shorts and pants from GAP. All clothing will look shorter on you if your legs are long- my daughter was dress coded nearly every day in elementary school and I was dressing her! That's another story.
My advice to you is to look polished and you know when the dress or shorts are to short. Your bum needs to be fully covered. For dresses or skirts you need to sit down. If you are show casing the family vault or can't sit without flashing the vault it is to short.
Good luck to you.
