I think I own more shorts this year than I ever have in my whole life. Have I just gotten better at wearing shorts? Nah. It's probably that it's easier to find cute shorts these days. These shorts are about the best thing ever for summer. They are breezy like a dress, but they don't fly up around my middle when a gust of wind makes an appearance. That's never very fun.

Thanks, guys, for your sweet comments on Hope's blog post. She really is SO into gymnastics right now. It's really adorable. I do wish she would post more, but I don't want to be pushy. I want blogging to be something she enjoys, and not have it turn into a chore. That's mostly why we don't hear much from her these days... probably after summer is over and life slows down a bit Hope will make a more regular appearance again. Right now there is so much swimming to do and ice cream to be consumed. ;)
Okay, I am taking a little day trip tomorrow, so I need to go pack up some things. I hope you have a lovely rest of the night and a wonderful Wednesday!!
Love your color combos! And you're getting me excited about the idea of shorts?! What?!
ReplyDeleteYour right! Those ARE cute shorts and extra cute because they are on you!
ReplyDeleteI love that shade of green on redheads! Which is great, cause I'm a redhead too! Ginger Bloggers, unite!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I'm doing a give-away on my blog, stop by if you like!

She isn't a natural redhead though.
DeleteThose shorts are so cute on you! Your post reminded me of a time I was in Montreal with my mother. As we walked along a gust of wind picked my dress right up, right in front of a nicely dressed handsome man. As he passed he didn't miss a beat in saying "Thank you". Oh my mom and I still laugh over that one!

I am pro-shorts this year too and normally loathe them!
ReplyDeleteLove the short and the bag and those shoes. I love it all. Have a wonderful time on your day trip tomorrow.

LOVE EVERYTHING about this outfit! Those shorts are calling to me...
ReplyDeleteI thought this whole outfit was a dress at first! Love it! The colour combination is perfect, and I want those shorts. :)
ReplyDeleteEverything about this outfit is adorable, even down to the accessories. You look lovely!
ReplyDeleteThat bag is adorable x

you look amazing, Katie! fabulous shorts, love the colour! :)
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about shorts. It isn't like my only options are tights little things ... I have dressier trouser-esque pairs, colorful pairs, printed pairs, flow-y pairs. I'm actually really enjoying the freedom of shorts over skirts this summer.
ReplyDeleteThis look is beautiful. I love the colors paired together.
I love the shorts and the creativity of using the scarf as a belt and you are one of the most well dressed persons ever, even in shorts.
ReplyDeleteI loved to See hope around and little Poe seems like she'll follow the big sister steps
Oh dear Katie... you lighten up my days. You inspire me, you and your lovely family. THANK YOU. You're amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd the shorts, so beautiful, it suits you like a treat! I love Modcloth, it's my favorite shop, but quite expensive for my budget. I'm a South African student living in Greece, so combining the greek crisis with the student budget can only allow me to dream for the day that I move to Netherlands (thankfully I have family there) and among other, BUY A MODCLOTH DRESS :D
Have a wonderful day!

I love every outfit you put together-- this one looks so comfortable!
ReplyDeleteOh! Those shorts are so adorable! I think I need order myself a pair now...

PS: I'm so glad Hope has found an activity she loves! It's great that you're able to give her that opportunity. :)
Love the shorts! At first I thought it was a skirt until the fourth picture. Also the scarf as a belt is a neat touch.

I love the color of your shorts, they look amazing on you. I didn't realize that your belt was a scarf until I read your outfit details.

I do love the volume in those shorts! They're so dainty :)
ReplyDeleteYou are a ray of sunshine friend. It's impossible not to love you. Glad you're enjoying summer so far. ♥
ReplyDeleteI love those shorts, and the color. I have this, well I don't know if you would classify it as a large handkerchief or a small scarf, but anyway, it has a beautiful patteren on it and I haven't found a great way to wear it yet. I never thought of wrapping it around my waist to jazz up a skirt/shirt combo! Great idea!

I love your shorts, I'd definitely agree that there are so many cute shorts in the shops this year - it's nice that people are branching out from only denim!

I love this whole look. Your tattoos are so "you" vibrant, pretty, and sunny.

These shorts are so beautiful! My boyfriend told me the other day "I thought you didn't like to wear shorts", so I guess I am wearing them more often this summer and changing my opinion on them as well!
ReplyDeleteLove the scarf as a belt too!
Oh you're oh so welcome! I love your blog, I just started out and thought I'd feature your site and shop, I just love that elephant! I can't get enough of him! You do an amazing job on your blog and I love it so.
ReplyDeleteTake Care!

You look good in those shorts girl! I think you should wear those more often as it accentuates your legs. It is mostly a hot temperature here in our country so I often see women who wear shorts but not all of them have good legs like yours. ;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love this look on you- so pretty :)
ReplyDeleteI love these shorts! They look super cute on you and the color is just lovely :)
ReplyDeleteYour talent shows in your styling. Colors ... I love them all.
