OOTD: IRO white shorts

I'm really coming up short (ha! SHORT.) in the clever-titles-arena these days, so my apologies that the title is quite literal today. Boring, snooze. But I think the outfit will make up for my banal title skillz.

I think I successfully styled the Geren Ford tank without jeans or the color blush! *pats self on back*


(Jammin'. To the voices in my head. HA.)

Top: Geren Ford tiger ikat top
Shorts: IRO Mya shorts (here, in charcoal!)
Sweater: Nordstrom BP cardi ("powder" not online)
Necklace: F21
Shoes: BCBG Max Azria reptile slides

Like I said before, I really love these shorts. I just love the look of them! Relaxed fit, but made of a very nice silk (I think half my closet is now silk, eeesshh) which adds a little "chic." They're rather fitted in the back, too, so no ass-sag. Love it. The fold-over style is really a fun detail... despite the fact that it takes longer to put them on than most shorts (zippers, buttons AND drawstrings), but I can live with a little high-maintenance. Oh, and although the camera doesn't capture it well, I seriously bought that BP sweater just for this top, because I love the pop of blue in the tank and realized it goes perfectly to bring it out. Sweet!

(Exclamation points!)

  1. LOVE this! I don't have many shorts cause my legs are so long compared to the restof my body that I feel a little ahem *exposed. But those shorts look really comfortable. This outfit screams summer!

  2. Gotta say that you totally got an amazing outfit here. Love the color combo with the top and the cardi. Love the shorts too, I might have to consider the charcoal ones as white is not something I have in my closet much, I have a husband who is always spilling food or drinks on me, specially when I wear white.

    And I have been dying to try white shorts. I never thought I would say that (because of the bigger bottom I have, lol). But I think I might be able to pull it off now. I just love everything about this outfit :)
