{ vintage sunnies from brimfield market, banana republic heritage vest (i found ONE for you on ebay), thrifted blouse from beacon's closet, jf & son shorts (read about the brand HERE), rebecca minkoff MAC, badgley mischka shoes }
i spent all of the long holiday weekend doing two things: helping my sister get settled in to her new home in new york, and wearing these sublime silk shorts. i stumbled across them in a shop window on friday, wore them out of the store, and haven't taken them off since (okay, except to shower and go to the gym). they're laidback, loose and lightweight (everything i want when it's hot outside), with just enough detailing that i don't feel as if i'm running around town in nothing but tap pants. dear jf & son, do they come in other colors?!

I love how the ruffles on your blouse play into the pattern of those shorts. You are so damn pretty, it's not even funny.
what is the secret to your glossy glossy hair? & i love those sandals.. youre one of my favourite bloggers because instead of choosing chunky boyish boots to go with every outfit (especially girlie ones) you flaunt your femininity & perfect pedicure in gorgeous heels!x

This look is perfect! It's laid BACK but still stands OUT!
@ Elisabeth Murray your so right about the play off of the ruffles and the zig zag of the shorts, it has a natural flow that is effortless.
Kelly you make this look easy!
Love it!

wow. first i went: "shoes!" and then i saw the "shirt!"..."with the shoes!"...and then the shorts. i like how this is strung together, made me smile
Those glasses and shorts are just so cool. Love the army green, nude and stripes combination.

Ummmm okay I can see why you haven't taken the shorts off! They are everything and more right now. Incredible!
i am a huge fan of army green because it always creates such a fashion paradox. it reminds me of Woodstock and i spontaneously start singing: 5,6,7 open up the pearly gates, ... anyway, love the layering and the combination with the uber feminine shorts, they remind me of DVF. love the quirky print. fabulously combined with the sophisticated stylish shoes and that adorable perfect city bag. BTW the color of the bag is genius, not too pale but perfect for summer
GORGEOUS...
Love your jacket ;D

i do not blame you, if i owned those shorts, they would definitely become another bodily appendage, an extension of the skin; they look so beautiful and comfortable.

I did the exact same thing on Friday. Went to the store and bought some cute shorts (at Forever 21!) and tops and haven't stopped wearing them! As you know, it's hot in Austin, and I've finally accepted the fact that I need to stop wearing jeans and embrace the short!
Um. Those shorts are to die.
those shorts are killer! they bring everything together!

So cute! I'm not a big fan of vests like that- meaning I would never think of wearing one personally, but you rock this out and make it so cute I want to buy this whole outfit! Amazing.
