I'm back but I'm not

Well hello there, long time no see! I'm back, but I'm not! We got in around midnight or so last night, so I'm taking today off work as well - I couldn't imagine missing work for a week, coming in after midnight just to turn around and go to work first thing in the morning! That just stresses me out thinking of it! I figured I would get unpacked and situated today before I jump back into life tomorrow!

I love shorts in the warmer months - chino/ twill type shorts are my favorite. Even better when they come in a fun print like this one! I wore this a couple weekends ago to brunch with the husband. Super easy to throw everything on and go! I could easily see variations of this being my weekend uniform for the summer. Ahhh, it's nice to feel fresh air again!

  1. I love a good printed short. I just scooped up 5 pairs for this summer. I love your pair's print/color and those wedges are perfect.

    1. This was my first pair of wedges that I had gotten in awhile, and it caused a domino effect and I bought a ton afterwards! My printed shorts collection isn't quite extensive, but I'm working on it! :)

  5. WELCOME BACK. But not. :) I think I need to add some printed shorts to my summer collection. I have basically every color of the rainbow now...but no prints.
