Wardrobe Wednesday- Pastels

June_30

I suppose most girls are self conscious of their legs. But one can only wear so many dresses until it's comes time to bare the legs in summertime shorts! Today was that time.

I had no idea that these shorts would fit me, until I listed them in the shop last night and saw the measurements! Handy! It's surprising how many things in my shop actually fit me, and I never realize it until they have sold.

For me, one of the fun things of having a vintage shop is being able to experiment with different styles and color palettes. I think, perhaps, pastels may work for me! I try not to get too tan in the summer- gotta keep that young look, yeah? But the garage sale last week gave me a bit of a glow. And, a farmers tan. Ahhh! So, I will admit, the shorts were more than just a "it's hot" decision. They were more like a "let's get rid of this farmer's tan" decision. Ah, summertime.

    About your Simon & Garfunkel post; I’ve been a fan since my friend Jessica and me jumped in my parents bed screaming/singing Cecilia – we were 5 years old!
