A quick outfit: floral shorts
Today’s post is going to be rather quick. I’m filled with a bit of nerves: I’m doing something pretty exciting (and something I’ve been looking forward to for over a year now). So, I thought I’d do a quick “drive by” and share a recent outfit…
I am a big advocate for holding on to certain items of clothing over the years. I’m not saying to keep everything: just some things! Each season I try to go through my closet and take a hard look at what I have. If there is no chance that I’ll ever wear it again or if it no longer fits I put it in a pile for consignment or donation. However, there are always some items I hold on to. These shorts are one of them.
I picked up these printed shorts at Target about 2-3 years ago (they’re Thakoon for Target, by the way). I wore them only a handful of times and then they landed in the back of a drawer. Until a few days ago. How in the world had I not been wearing them? With all of the floral prints we’ve been seeing in stores lately, they are right on trend! I have a feeling these shorts will be getting quite a bit of wear during the summer months…
Striped henley: Merona, purchased at Target, Floral shorts: Thakoon for Target – similar here, Studded handbag: purchased at Marshalls, Black and brown wedges: Coconuts, purchased at Marshalls – similar here, Purple stretch bracelet: Cara accessories, purchased at Dillards, Sunglasses: Ray Ban New Wayfarer
Ok, so I’m off to do exciting things today…wish me luck! I’m excited to share what I’m up to very very soon (and stay tuned tomorrow for a great beauty-related giveaway…yay)!
Did you recently rediscover an item in your wardrobe that you’d forgotten about? What was it?
