I bought these linen shorts this weekend against my better judgement, but I had the thought that I wanted some work appropriate shorts and what could be better than linen when the temps are soaring. There is a reason why this is my only linen item and I realized that after some fast forming wrinkles and multiple douses of Downy Wrinkle Releaser. Linen gets a D in presentation today and I'm noting that maybe a darker color would be better next time (if there is one).
I'm not sure what I was doing, but the effect of this pic is kind of cool.
Debut of my lovely new bag
Mr. Giraffe makes an appearance at least once or twice a week.

Woven sandals- Belle by Sigerson Morrison
Giraffe necklace- J Crew outlet
Colorful ethnic bracelet- H&M (Vintage aka I bought it in college, lol. That's considered vintage, right?)

ReplyDeleteThe MA is one of my favorite bags. Glad you are enjoying the bags, it's a major weakness of mine. I told myself this is my last major purchase of the year (although I can't be held accountable for another if I fall in love again). :)

ReplyDeleteThe orangey tan of the purse contrasts perfectly with the blue of your jacket!
