Three Ways to Wear Snazzy Shorts

Summer is finally here, which means time for sunshine, evenings on the deck, awesome thunderstorms, and SHORTS! Yay, finally the season where I can show off my perfect legs and have to remember to shave at least once week! Said no one ever.

Shopping for shorts has always been a pain for me. They are always too long, too baggy in some areas, too tight in others, or too expensive for something that I'll only wear several months out of the year. So when I find a pair of shorts that are perfect, I wear the crap out of them. In my summer shopping adventures, I was so excited to see that shorts with fun prints on them are all the rage this year! Such a nice break from my go-to jorts. When my fellow blogging buddies Stephie and Madeline and I were trying to think up a summer trend to feature for our seasonal posts, we threw around several ideas before deciding on printed shorts. So much fun, so many options, and easy to dress up or down!


I was so excited to find these Ann Taylor shorts at Goodwill for $3.99 on a lunchtime thrifting trip-- definitely one that I went back to the office to brag about. Did people care? Probs not. I sure have been getting some good wear out of these puppies with all of these toasty days we've been having. I love that shorts with a looser fit is in and daisy dukes are out because it makes me feel like I can wear heels and not look like a hooch.


I would say with all of our snazzy shorts, curly hair, and funky jewelry we are ready for the weekend! Happy Friday everyone, and don't forget to stop by Thrift and Style and Style Me Thrifty to say hello!

Chunky Scarves: Three Ways

Happy Thursday! 

After a few days being out of commission with a winter cold/sickness misery, I'm happy to finally be back to myself. Seriously, the older I get the more of a wimp I am about being sick. All I can say is thank God for Nyquill and Puffs with Lotion!

 Today I'm excited to be sharing some ideas on how to wear a cozy, chunky scarf with three of my favorite bloggers, Madeline and Stephie. You might remember our post from the Fall where we showcased ankle boots; we wanted to do it again, this time with a winter staple.


I absolutely looooove scarves! I just about have one that matches every outfit, but I knew for this particular scarf I needed to wear it with my Kohl's sweater I snagged in an after-Christmas sale (70-80% off of the already clearanced price. I was a happy girl that day). I bought the sweater in a bigger size than I'd usually wear so that I could pull it over a pair of cozy leggings (thrifted) and wear with boots (Marshall's). 



Check out how Madeline and Stephie styled their scarfy looks today! (And give a little extra congrats to Madeline, who just got engaged!)
