Thank you for your supportive comment.

I'm smiling remembering being way to scared of my Moms wrath to try it! :-)<br />Linda A Kinsmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18056026661992815682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080783697378837128.post-25416068747297776122013-06-07T15:25:11.528-05:002013-06-07T15:25:11.528-05:00Reading this reminds me of myself when I was 14 an...Reading this reminds me of myself when I was 14 and trying desperately to keep up with the fashion trends set by my music idols and fit in with my peers. Ahh, the way I used to roll my skirts at the waist to make them shorter, just as soon as my mom lost sight of me (or carrying a pair of super sexy shorts in my school bag). I find the whole discussion funny and I'm on your girls' side on this one but hey, my daughter is only 6 now, I might think differently in few years time. Good read Linda! <br />Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10175886429842057332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080783697378837128.post-154876050657525682013-06-06T09:56:09.425-05:002013-06-06T09:56:09.425-05:00Hi Penny,

My youngest being only 16 simply says "no Mom, I won't wear any of those shorts" so we just quit looking. I don't know who thought that eliminating 7 to 9" inch was a bad idea, but get over it! Girls of value DON'T like them 1-3"!!! But then, they aren't the target demographic, they never have been! <br /><br />Good luck with the new shipments. If you do find some, let us know! laceyonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079846276026132123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080783697378837128.post-14768888748935571152013-06-04T10:21:25.411-05:002013-06-04T10:21:25.411-05:00Hi Alison,

And prices!

And I'm like you saying never gonna happen. If you look like you don't respect yourself, how will others know they should?
