Your legs aren't that big. Probably best to go for something knee-length though.

whatever you're wearing isn't very flattering because it's too short

Don't fret, OP :smile:

My legs and overall body shape look similar to yours.

I wear short skirts or dresses occasionally, with either leggings or tights. If you don't want to wear the tights when it gets hot, things that come to your knees will be perfect - you won't look frumpy or anything.

As you've got quite a curvy figure, wear wrap-around dresses to accentuate your waist, or ones with ties at the waist, e.g.

If you're motivated enough, you'll lose the weight in no time.

I am sorry, I am from Europe (So yes I am Eurotrash and bla bla) but how can you say that her thighs are ok? Like she knows they are too big and wants to do something against it, and her size clearly isn't normal. Like here it is not "average" to be a size 16. And if you are its frowned upon because its unhealthy. I mean I am the same height as her, and I couldn't even imagine weighing the same as her...

I am sorry, and I don't care if I will be negged or whatever, but don't make being fat ok. AND SHE IS NOT CURVY! I have nothing against people with weight problems, but don't make it seem like its healthy to be that size.

Oh and for legs exercises, the best you can do is squats, lunges and a lot a lot a lot of cross trainer. If you want you can PM me, and I will explain you the exercises I do :smile:

because I do many more on the floor and they really help :smile:

You should avoid a clingy style of dress as it will just further emphasise your thighs, an A line dress that flows outwards should suit you as you can't tell where your thighs end and the material begins (so to speak :tongue:

tsr is brutal sometimes! anyways OP, id say wear mid-length skirts... so dresses/skirts that a knee-length are best..show off the skinnier part of your leg (calfs? calfy-bit? lolz i dont know the plural!).

also dresses with an empire line (smaller fit at the waist, flare out on the skirt) are flattering on EVERY shape. here's some examples:
1 (need a cami under this though, bit low cut!)
2 (good style because it cover arms, if you're self-conscious)
3 (ignore the vile print, look at the style of the dress)
4.

avoid mini-dreses and big baggy shapeless things (equally, avoid bodycon things!)... wear cardis and jackets (denim, leather, etc.) to cover up arms and shoulders.

tights and leggings (although im not a fan of the leggings/dress look personally) are also brilliant for hiding your legs. and fake tanning; as long as you dont go overboard, it can really make you feel better about getting your legs out.

also look at blogs, two that spring to mind at french for cupcake and messy carla. these ladies look goregous and dress in such pretty things, so hopefully will inspire you a bit? :smile:

blogs are fab for style inspiration when you're feeling a bit stuck in a rut.
