Spandex biker shorts: the new summer fad?

According to Catwalk Queen, these are the new, shorter version of leggings, created for the hot summer weather. But don't be fooled -- even though leggings were exceptionally trendy all winter long, you will look like an insane person if you make these spandex eyesores a prominent part of your summer wardrobe.

That said, there's plenty of people that disagree with me on this -- most notably Top Shop, American Apparel, and Oasis. All three stores have versions of the shorts available on their websites.
