east vs west [coast] style. denim shorts.

i was invited to participate in a fun collaboration with five other bloggers from the east and west coasts. over the next four weeks, we'll share our takes on a few trends. it'll be interesting to see how lifestyle and location influence style across the states. this week, we're showing you how we sport denim shorts.

i hope you take the time to visit each of these beautiful ladies. here's the crew:

east

Jackie / Living After Midnite / New York

Jessica / My Style Vita / Georgia

Tracy / TheRightShoes / New York

west

Ashley / Golden Divine / Arizona

Ashley / Pursuit of Shoes / California

Becks / oomph. / Hawaii

on the weekends, you'll usually find me lounging in denim shorts and a tee...especially during summer. a light-colored blazer and low(er) wedges keep me polished but not overdone in this

beachy state.

wanted to say.

hello.

(blazer c/o sheinside; boots, nine west)

garden variety.

after finishing my week of blazers last month, i realized that there were a few voids that needed wanted to be filled. one was for a floral blazer. this one from sheinside works perfectly with my current semi-casual wardrobe. its white base makes it versatile enough to be worn during summer months, and y'all know that we have a lot of those around here. i've already worn it to the office over a black dress and hope to find the perfect denim cutoffs to wear with it next. 

this weekend, i actually saw a movie...in a theater. i got to spend some quality time with mini-she, and she wanted to see

the odd life of timothy green. it was good. really good.

i cried my false eyelashes off. and i NEVER cry.

how was your weekend?
