Mom Shorts

May 29, 2019 by realchicrealcheap 1 Comment

My husband said these are Mom shorts. Yeah, well. I guess guilty as charged. Except that I bought these shorts 8 years ago before we went on our honeymoon. Well, snaps for me because they still fit and this was the perfect outfit to trek multiple miles through the zoo on a 90 degree Louisiana summer day. This shirt is a bit boxy but very lightweight and offered plenty of sun coverage.

Random outfit to post online, sure, but I thought I would share it because I feel confident and happy in it. And isn’t that what fashion/style blogging is all about anyway? I just started reading Marie Kondo’s The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and have been thinking about my clothes that spark joy for me. These clothes are simple and classic and yes, they spark joy for me.

Shirt: Gap (thrifted)

Shorts: Ann Taylor (clearance rack purchase in 2010 and still in great shape, good job on quality Ann Taylor)

Shoes: Dr. Scholl’s Wander Up in lilac mist (Zappos)– $29.99 on sale
