aztec shorts + stud earrings.

just as there are wardrobe staples, there are accessory staples.

two kinds of earrings that are a must-have in my jewelry collection are simple hoops and studs. my daily grind of work and kids' activities doesn't warrant the use of big, elaborate earrings (i save those for nights out), but i will always reach for basic hoop earrings or stud earrings in gold or silver. they are the finishing touches on a casual outfit and the perfect fillers for your bare ears when you are wearing a statement necklace. while i'm wearing them here with shorts and slippers, i love that these pretty, square-cut studs from INPINK have enough shine and detail for a formal evening out.

i picked up these shorts from Patty's Closet a few weeks ago when they were having their 20% off labor day sale. i usually prefer cuts and fabrics that are a little more sturdy and structured (like denim!), so this was something different for me. mini-she says they look like pajamas, and i'm ok with that!
