Just like The Royal Teens, I wear short shorts. I like short shorts. They are my fashion happy place. Instead of wearing jeans for comfort, I wear shorts. Winter or Summer, it doesn't matter, as long as they are short shorts, and at least a little high-waisted. Last week, I was debating whether to slash through my black skinny jeans for a bit of Margiela vibe, but I quickly decided against it as it is just not my style, and I think the world has seen enough of these anyway. So I opted for a more classic hack of the legs. I never used to wear these jeans, but now I live in the shorts.

In these photos, I wore the shorts with a Victorian type lace & cotton blouse, a vintage cardigan from Bows & Bandits (fave online shop at the moment!) and my emergency Swear shoes.

I really enjoy cutting & altering my clothes, I get new stuff all the time without ever leaving the house, or taking my (empty) wallet out! I wish I was as skilled as Queen Michelle or Susie Bubble when it comes to clothes alterations, but I am happy with my tiny little DIY projects for now.
Speaking of new clothes, you can still help me get my dream wedding dress before it is sold out! Just click on the "I want to help" button on the right sidebar... Read here for the full story.

You give me courage! I think this may be the summer that I embrace the super short short.
ReplyDeletei really admire gals who dare to alter their clothes into something even more fabulous. maybe i'm not as creative and just plain laziness, but i just love to see how you diy all your clothes to something unique.
ReplyDeleteLovely. I really enjoy how feminine the outfit is. I don't usually think of short shorts as "pretty" but you wear them well.
