Well it is short, i dunno if id wear it, id feel a bit self conscience in it. I don't like skirts or dresses that are too short. Most of my dresses are above the knee.

I think that the knee is a good area to shoot for. I think that if a dress is above the knee, then it is too short.

Personally if it's above the knee when I'm sitting down, it's too short. That being said, I prefer things down to my ankles.

By the way, stop trying to advertise. It's really not subtle.

It really depends on the person, their style, their body type and the level of confidence they have with their body. Some girls look amazing and classy in short dresses...I think it has a lot to do with how you wear it.

Personally, I don't like anything more than a few inches above the knee. That's short enough for me.

If it covers everything then its not too short? If the bottom of your bum is out then its too short..

Id shoot for around 3 inches above the girls knee, that way you're saying you look cute, good, pretty attractive, but not slutty, and you're not telling her to cover up more it's a safe zone for chicks since we're sensitive on those issues.









Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.

Do the arm length test.
Stand up straight with your arms at your sides.
If a dress isn't longer than where your finger tips reach, it's too short.

There are exceptions, but I find this works great as a general rule.
