Normally I wouldn’t advocate plunging necklines and super short shorts, but in this instance it works. The muted grey is a flattering shade and the whole ensemble suggests a style icon in the making.
But whilst it works as an outfit you can’t help but notice Rumer’s somewhat mottled legs. I myself as a pale skinned girl can completely sympathise, but she would have done better to put on a little body foundation or a pair of tights.
This is the problem with short shorts and pale skins, it is a shame though because this is an example of how beauty neglect can detract from an otherwise great outfit. Although if I can be really picky I would have liked to have seen her wearing shoes in the same gunmetal shade as her clutch (but I like the shape of her black courts).
But with the exception of the pink legs and exposed boob tape this look is fantastic and just shows that Rumer may be a woman to watch.
Someone who we love to watch and would never been seen with mottled legs was a fellow guest at the Geniux Magazine BritWeek Designer of the Year Fashion Show and Award, Dita Von Teese. Dita also opted for shorts but had clearly powdered her legs first. I almost always love Dita’s style and those shoes are amazing.
Whose style do you prefer Rumer or Dita? And are you still loving the short short trend?

Woohoo! You can tell that summer is on the way when the skirts start to get shorter. I feel that this summer is going to be a scorcher, balls to global warming!
Dita’s outfit is way better. Rumer’s is really ill fitting – the worst is around her crotch….. although better too baggy than too tight!!
Loving the shorts look – I’m a big fan and wear all the time. Although I always wear tights due to having pasty white legs and it being the UK, too cold to go bare!
I found your blog on google and read a few of your other posts. I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the nice work Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
