I’m normally not a shorts person. I like to stay warm at all times and I naturally run cold!

I especially love pairing denim shorts with a long sleeve top while the seasons are still transitioning. Baby steps!

Denim Shorts | Sandals | Bodysuit | Pendants

This is my new favorite pair and I had to totally size up a couple sizes to get the fit I want. I like my shorts loose in the leg! Also, I can’t get over the side paneling in this pair!

Shorts | Top | Tennis Shoes

The tried and true pair I’m loving (although I would love a little more give in the thighs).
