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.
