Buffalo Plaid & Sparkly Shorts

Friday, December 2, 2011






Top - Target (old)  //  Short - Bongo Party Shorts (love that name!)  //  Bracelet - Forever 21  //  Earrings - Kenneth Cole  //  Shoes - kelly & katie  (seen, here, here, here) 

It's safe to say that I'm obsessed with sequins this season. Picked up these shorts for $14 (woot!) but was having a hard time deciding on a top to wear with them. I had packed them in my suitcase over Thanksgiving weekend just for kicks so my options were even more limited. Lying next to them in the bag was this flannel shirt and I thought "why not"? So I gave it whirl and this is what I got. Comfy and sparkly? I'm in love. Next challenge, a sequin crop jacket!

    I love sequins so much! I bought a similar pair of shorts that I had to send back because they looked so terrible on me - but you look stunning. They work especially well tamed with the plaid. Very cute!

    oh you did a wonderful job here! This look would rock especially well in the NW- a perfect blend of sophistication and utilitarian. I am digging it. I also like your hair pulled back, thanks for the inspiration!

    Love how sequins have become part of everyday wear this season. Now I'm wishing I bought those sequin shorts last year that were on super sale. :/
