Mixing it Up

    | 20 comments
 








The week seems to be going by pretty quickly. Maybe it's because of the beautiful weather and summer is almost here. Who knows? Lately I've been wearing shorts shorter than 5 inches and showing more skin and I love it. I used to associate short shorts with looking trashy or just plain on doing too much. But anything can be worn with class. :-) This particular pair of shorts are 3 inches which isn't so bad. As long as the butt cheeks are covered everything should be cool. I decided to mix and match some prints and patterns for my outfit and the key for me was to use prints in the same color family. The graphic tank has a dark red print on front and it added a little pop of color to the cream and black. The tank and aztec print cuffed shorts paired with the animal print wedge sandals and statement necklace gives the outfit a casual chic look. Not too dressy and not too casual. It's all about comfort for me even though wedges feel like pumps and stilettos in my opinion. Usually I'll just sit down all day or only walk short distances. Beauty is pain sometimes. I wore this last Sunday when we tried to go see the movie After Earth with Will and Jaden Smith but it was sold out. Next time.

How's your week so far? Do you wear shorter length shorts? What length is too short for you?

Happy Memorial Day! I hope everyone is enjoying the day off and eating some good food. Today is also Mel's birthday. Happy Birthday Babe! We're going to a family brunch which is going to be awesome because her uncle is a great cook. We're also planning to go thrift shopping at the Goodwill stores as they're having a 50% off sale again. Other than that, we don't have anything special planned but hopefully someone we know will be having a cookout so I can eat some more good food!!

Mel and I attended a business networking event last night and this is what I wore. I thrifted the high rise/high-waisted jeans from Goodwill for about $4. High waisted jeans may be a little hard to pull but one tip I can offer is to wear it with a fitted shirt or a crop top. I paired mine with a graphic tank with some top cities listed on it and a cute blazer that I found on the clearance rack at Target. It was on sale for about $17. It's available online now at a discounted price. I got the ankle boots at Nordstrom Rack for $30. That's a huge deal with the original price being $160. I added some hoop earrings and gold bangles and the outfit was complete.
