Mom Shorts?


Blouse: thrifted, Forever 21
Cardigan: J.J. Basics
Shorts: thrifted, Esprit
Socks: For Love 21
Shoes: Urban Outfitters
Bag: Kenneth Cole Reaction, handed down from my mom
Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters

I found these shorts at ACTS Thrift Store a while back and thought they were the coolest, most totally ’80s pair I’d ever come across. But maybe they’re just “mom” shorts. I love how the shape nips in at the waist and how the legs are wide, but Jasen did not like these on me. Am I crazy for liking them? Have I offically worn something “man repelling” for my blog? I didn’t get carded when I bought wine tonight at the grocery store while wearing them, so what should that tell me?

It was hot today and Jasen and I went to Disneyland in the afternoon, so I also decided that I would wear my new sunglasses for the first time. I added these to my wish list on Urban Outfitters’ website a couple months ago but didn’t want to pay shipping for them. Then they showed up in my local store, and I figured they were worth $10.

    the shorts on their own are a bit momshorts, but the way you paired them is not. I didn't think OOH MOMSY when I saw this at all, it's very retro and cute :)

    I agree with Annebeth, the way you put the outfit together makes it look young and very cool! especially the top and the neckline, oh and the cute shoes! I can not imagine those shorts looking as good on me!
