Comfort Shorts


Top: Urban Outfitters
Shorts: Worn
Shoes: Jessica Simpson

I bought these shorts and another pair just like them in brown from MyShape when I worked there. They’re very comfortable, made from a soft, light cotton-linen blend, but I generally just wear them around the apartment doing housework or whatever. Today I thought maybe I could dress them up a bit by giving them a good ironing and wearing them with a pretty top and pointy heels. I think the result wasn’t bad, so now I’ll probably be wearing these and the brown pair out more often on hot days. I also like that these shorts are pretty much the perfect length for me — they show some leg but not so much that I feel like I’m being risqué.

  11. There is really nothing like a good pair of shorts for the summer! I am loving your linen shorts. I have been on the hunt for a pair of linen beauties similar to yours but haven't found any that I am in love with yet. And I also really like how you paired the shorts with some pointy flats for a fancy look. xx

  15. This is such a lovely little outfit. I prefer longer length shorts, too, though it can be tricky finding just the right pair.
