I love, love, love my denim shorts. I truly live in this pair in the summertime. I love how casual denim is year-round, but my denim shorts take the cake in warm weather. It's always fun to try a little something new & dress down a more formal piece or dress up a casual piece, like I did today.
In today's look, I decided to use this embellished jacket & my favorite pair of wedge sandals to take my denim shorts up a notch. Shorts already have the ability to show off a great pair of legs , but adding a pair of heels will make your legs look miles long!
I always like to balance out the amount of skin I show, so if I'm showing a lot of leg in shorts, I try to keep covered up on top. This sleeveless turtleneck and jacket make my shorts more appropriate, but still create a super cute transitional look!

Thank you! Me too - when I saw it in stores, I couldn't pass it up!
DeleteI'm all about outfit balance, too! I love that you've mixed cute cutoff's with a more dressed up blazer and wedges. That jacket is seriously adorable also. Talk about a statement piece!

It's so great when you can wear a piece dressed up or down. When I'm shopping I always think about different ways that I can wear an item!
DeleteI love, love, love taking a pair of normally-casual cutoffs and dressing them up. You look gorgeous here, babe!

Basically, I just love my cutoffs in the summer, so sometimes I need to make them a little more appropriate for dressier date nights or dinners :)
DeleteLove this! That jacket is gorgeous!

This one is from last year, but I can only imagine the great blazers & jackets Zara is going to have in stock this fall!
DeleteObsessed with this look! I always love how you style everything you wear. Guess what?! I am coming to fashion week(end) after all! My mom is coming with me and we are making a girls trip out of it! Let me know if you'll be at any events. I have no idea how any of it works...

Yes- they are great! I love the slightly longer length of this pair
DeleteThis look is so cute! The shorts are summery but the jacket and color palette make it more suitable for early fall - so perfect!

Yes - it's still so hot, but it's time to start transitioning. Color is the best way in the beginning!
DeleteLove this look! I'm obsessed with your jacket and love how you paired it with the cut offs! Such a perfect transitional look.
