Now I have shorts in slip material and it is lovely ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833669 Thu, 12 Jul 2018 15:28:28 +0000 looch 2833669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 20 something year old self never wore shape wear under a dress or skirt, but my 40 something year old self does.</p> <p>A casual wardrobe staple of mine is the skorts from Altheta. They work better for me than shorts and they have an integrated pair of bike shorts that works perfectly when I decide to run after my son and climb up on the monkey bars with him. I have them in at least 5 colors and I just ordered another one this week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833643 Thu, 12 Jul 2018 14:19:21 +0000 Ms.Mermaid 2833643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bike to work. I wear Jockey Skimmies Slipshorts nonstop all summer. Prevents chafing, keeps my seat from hurting me, modest in case my skirt flies up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833474 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 21:06:10 +0000 lamariniere 2833474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in a tropical climate and wear dresses just about every day. I only wear panties. I found these awesome seamless ones at Uniqlo and they stay put and are super smooth clingier dresses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833471 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 20:55:09 +0000 farawayyama 2833471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear slipshorts. I get chub rub and spend my day getting on and off the floor and so wear them to avoid embarrassing moments. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833424 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 16:26:22 +0000 Mama Bird 2833424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Either nice stockings, or nothing. Most of my dresses are on the longer side, so it works.</p> <p>I do have to be careful to never ever wear a strapless dress. DD loves to hang off the hem of my dress, and it's caused a few wardrobe malfunctions. She also thinks nothing of peeking down my neckline in public to check if I've got her favorite "fuzzy bra" on :crying: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833394 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 13:16:58 +0000 nana87 2833394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't wear shorts for modestly purposes, but if it's a really hot day I'll wear a pair of dh's boxer briefs or shapewear under my dress to avoid chaffing </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833392 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 13:11:39 +0000 Mrs. Carrot 2833392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Jockey under-shorts, because chubrub sucks and I love dresses. And my 5 year old always has shorts under dresses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833366 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 12:02:04 +0000 Mrsbells 2833366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bakingdoodle: I wear spanx type shorts if the dress is short. This way a rogue wind wont expose my business. Also my toddler loves lifting my dress up randomly </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833360 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 11:49:58 +0000 Rocker2014 2833360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wear shorts under dresses (unless formal), I never know what I'm likely to end up doing! I have a couple of pairs of something very similar to these (mine were hanes and are now discontinued :crying: ) They're not really shapewear, and look like shorts so they're comfortable and it is fine if they're seen. I love mine!</p> <p><a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/FLEXEES-by-Maidenform-Light-Control-Shorty-Shapewear/33103219?u1=1025X1552619Xf9c388a5b710f09d720ae15491707418&#038;oid=223073.1&#038;wmlspartner=TnL5HPStwNw&#038;sourceid=34525295612117093426&#038;affillinktype=10&#038;veh=aff" rel="nofollow">https://www.walmart.com/ip/FLEXEES-by-Maidenform-Light-Control-Shorty-Shapewear/33103219?u1=1025X1552619Xf9c388a5b710f09d720ae15491707418&#038;oid=223073.1&#038;wmlspartner=TnL5HPStwNw&#038;sourceid=34525295612117093426&#038;affillinktype=10&#038;veh=aff</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/shorts-under-dresses-1#post-2833359 Wed, 11 Jul 2018 11:45:49 +0000 Ms. RV 2833359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear these under anything above the knee:</p> <p>Basic Solid Biker Short Spandex Yoga Leggings (12 inch, Black), Free Size <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UKDZZCK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_PlJrBbV9H8YH9" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UKDZZCK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_PlJrBbV9H8YH9</a></p> <p>For my job I do a lot of bending, lifting, and climbing into equipment.
