\"myOk, if you’re a guy, turn this next discussion off. <\/p>\n

I am currently into “city shorts.” <\/p>\n

Ok, what am I talking about? <\/p>\n

Those long shorts that come just above the knee, and are fairly fitted (usually with a bit of spandex.). They used to be called bermudas, but today’s are a bit less baggy.<\/p>\n

I love white ones. I’d wear them year-round if I could find a sufficient number of them. Too often I order them on ebay only to find they aren’t “tapered” enough or they are a tad too long. As I said, they’re very much like bermudas of old, but much more “stylish.” The spandex makes the difference.<\/p>\n

The other day I found some by a designer called Josephine Chaus and when I received them, they were nearly perfect (ok, so they need a little tapering but they were the right stretch and length so 2 out of 3 criteria wasn’t bad). I was happy.<\/p>\n

I’ve since bid on two more pair by that designer (black and kahki). I won’t know until next weekend if I won them.<\/p>\n

Tonight I bought another white pair by Eric Casuals. They are supposedly $98 shorts. They look great. (See photo.) I’ll know in a few days.<\/p>\n

It’s awful to have an obsession.<\/p>\n

(And it’s so good that my Grandma Brophey’s “rule” of no white over Labor Day doesn’t apply in Florida. I plan to wear these kinds of shorts all the time!! I don’t mind black, but white is always perfect.) <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
