Outfit of the Day: Bygone Era

I have been seeing a lot of fashionable people out there wearing blouses with short shorts. I think it's a great way to be semi-conservative while being able to show off your summer tan legs. It also gives you the opportunity to wear your work blouses on the weekends. 

I am wearing one of my favorite blouses. It's a cream chiffon with a 60's astro print, in a western cut. Sounds like it has an identity crisis, doesn't it? I don't normally buy anything in linen, but it is a nice light material to wear during hot summer days. These navy shorts are linen with a stretch fold over waist band. You will be seeing a lot of my Dany shoes, I'm giving you fair warning (: I would also wear my gold flats with this outfit, if I plan on walking a lot that day. In a past post I was talking about my affinity with Puma handbags. This cream patent one was a gift to myself. I was looking for a large light color handbag that I can use for work and on the weekends. Even though it's a "sports bag", I thought with the classic silhouette and faux leather material that it would work with my more conservative work outfits.
