Outfit of the Day- We Are Over!

I decided to have another date with my linen shorts and we both discovered that this relationship is just not going to work. I thought I came prepared by working in my new drapey cardigan from Forever 21 to do some camouflage action, but nope. These shorts are now destined to spend some time at the bottom of my drawer until next summer when I'll cry about needing shorts, discover them again, and start the linen hate cycle all over.

Can I just rant about how much sunblock sucks. This is me making a face when I discovered the white film all over my legs from that stupid lotion. Why can't these sunblock companies get it right?

Fresh out the door in the morning and the wrinkles started already!!

Outfit of the Day- Why Linen Will Never Be My Friend

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.
