living the summer in shorts

I love dresses. The end. When summer comes along, it is so easy to look cute in them; throw on one piece of clothing and you're set to go for the day. They're also cool during these balmy summer days we cannot seem to escape. Now, I still love my dresses this summer, but with all the adorable variety of shorts lining the malls, how can you not spend every moment in them?

These shorts in particular are extremely comfortable and very light weight, perfect for the heat. Not to mention the extra detailing on the bottom!

I first wore these to church with a nicer blouse and strappy wedges, but they can obviously be made more casual with the right supplements.

Take a break from those mini dresses, you might have some unexpected fun. Just try to do a cartwheel in one!
