Shopping Guide: Shorts for a Pear Shaped Body

Searching for shorts that flatter your body?  I’m sharing the BEST shorts for a pear shaped body….trust, they’re worth EVERY penny!

Searching for shorts that flatter your body? Lifestyle blogger Carly of Lipgloss & Crayons is sharing the BEST shorts for a pear shaped body....trust, they're worth EVERY penny!

Ok, you guys asked for MORE.  Yesterday, I shared tips for buying shorts for a pear shaped body.  It’s tough right? When you are wider on the bottom (like I am)….shorts can be daunting.  So, I used those tips and rounded up my FAVORITE shorts for a pear shaped body.  I’ve tried on each and every one of these pairs of shorts……..and can guarantee you’ll love them.

Shorts for a Pear Shaped Body

When shopping for shorts, I always size up and pick shorts that hit at the thinnest part of my legs (for me that’s a 3 inch to 4 inch inseam).   Remember that structured fabrics will be more flattering, and to think about balance.  Lighter or brighter colors on top.  If I’m rocking a pair of bright shorts, then I wear a white or light grey top….and it balances perfectly.  These? Some of my favorites!

Denim Shorts and Solid Colored Shorts

Printed Shorts

Focus on highlighting your favorite parts of your body.  Confidence is #1!  Wear statement necklaces or earrings (not both) and items that accentuate your shoulders, chest, waist and calves.  Wear shorts, shirts and dresses that flow away from the upper leg and rock those curves! – Heather, Westside Fashion Consulting

📣What conversations with your kids are you gear 📣What conversations with your kids are you gearing up to have? 📣⠀
📣Let’s be honest......there are conversation topics that as parents we all know we need to bring up. From body changes to the birds and the bees to underage drinking.....as our kids get older, we’ve got a lot to tackle. And I get it, unless you happen to be a 15 years in the classroom teacher like me....this probably isn’t something you have experience with (plus, trust me....it’s a whole other ball game with your OWN kids). ⠀
⠀
📣I’m excited to team up with my friends at Responsibility.org to talk to YOU about having those talks with your family. This month is Alcohol Responsibility Month, and it’s the PERFECT time to start an ongoing dialog around underage drinking.⠀
⠀
📣 A few tips for having those ongoing conversations with your kids:⠀
⠀
📢Be human. It’s ok to not know all the answers. Your job? To lead with love and openness, and to use resources and experts to find the answers.⠀
⠀
📢Know that these are ongoing conversations. Hard topics aren’t a one and done type of dialog. As your children grow up, and have new experiences, you’ll have more conversations.⠀
⠀
📢Facts and Data are more effective than scare tactics. For discussions about Underage Drinking, I love Ask, Listen, Learn as a resource for parents and teachers. It addresses brain development, and has some REALLY cool videos and interactive tools for kids in grades 4-7.⠀
⠀
📣I’m sharing more tips and resources over on the blog today.

🌴These happy faces? Are because we spent the day lounging by the pool instead of hiding from loud machines.  If you follow along on our stories, you know that we came home from a trip to Bass Lake and Yosemite LAST week to…..WATER EVERYWHERE.  It’s all still being sorted out, but…..in the meantime there are some very big and loud machines starting the process of removing the water from our floors / cabinets and downstairs area. ⠀
⠀
🌴So when we had the chance to do a little staycation at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach after our Touch of Disney day…….CLEARLY it was a YES.  This was my first time to this property, and it won’t be the last.  Three pools, super close to a ton of fun activities (18 miles from Disneyland, and an 8 minute drive from the Lido Marina Village), plus they’ve got a GREAT dinner option and a coffee shop in the morning.  This was JUST what we needed,  now I’m just busy plotting ways to stay longer.⠀
⠀
🌴Have you done an emergency home renovation? Did you stay? Because, I’m about to vote for us just taking up residence at the Hyatt Regency Newport Beach until all work is done.  You support this choice, right? ⠀

🌲I’m a check my email a million times type of person. I can admit it. I get worried when I think my cell phone doesn’t have enough power. And today? We spent the majority of the time hiking all over Yosemite National Park with zero wifi.⠀
