A Short Story

It has been hot where we live lately. With all of the heat advisories being issued it is definitely time to make sure all of those shorts in your closet are getting their fair share of wear time. Although I often picture shorts as something to wear when just hanging out or runnings errands I'm starting to realize that shorts can be dressed up for a casual work environment. I think either of these looks would be good for a more casual office, for school or for going out to an early dinner with friends.

Look 1:
Ruched Sleeve Blazer $125 - topshop.com
Cotton horse-print tank $165 - net-a-porter.com
High-waisted wool $260 - net-a-porter.com
Sacred heart necklace $230 - net-a-porter.com
Snow Quartz Ring $203 - maxandchloe.com
ASOS HOOP Platform Sandals $56 - asos.com

Look 2:
Bony Fish Necklace $2,665 - net-a-porter.com
Paddington Ballet Flat $495 - barneys.com'
Aerie V-Neck Cardigan $40 - ae.com
Flippa tanktop coral $70 - musthaves.dk
Petites Mink Washed Shorts $34 - missselfridge.com
I love denim shorts because they can be styled in so many ways. This look would be perfect for the weekend.

Look 3:
BAG BROWN LEATHER $300 - farfetch.com
Swarovski brass feather earrings $565 - net-a-porter.com
Aviator Sunglasses $395 - endless.com
Breath of Beauty Scarf $17 - modcloth.com
The Row tank - brownsfashion.com
Boots $36 - forever21.com
Denim Crop Jacket $62 - topshop.com
Denim Bermuda Shorts $30 - ae.com

A tip with pairing a denim jacket with denim shorts or pants is to make sure that your shirt is longer than your jacket so there is something between the denim to break it apart.
